Just take the wheels off. It's a piece of cake then. Also, put a track weekend on your rotors with real racing pads (I used Carbotech XP12s in front and XP10s in the rear). Your dust issues with stock pads will magically disappear - at least mine have.

I used to take my wheels off when i did car wash but it was too much of work for the car wash... i alrdy take 2-3hrs per car wash...
may be i should try carbotech and see if that helps with dust. but i'm not worried about dusts too much with F... i've had worse dust problems...
