BRAKE DUST

Ive had my CLS63 for a few weeks now, absolutely love it, but man this brake dust is something else. I knew going into it that these cars produce a good amount of dust but wtf lol. Does anyone have any recommended wheel cleaners or products they use for cleaning? Are there any aftermarket pads that would cut down the dust? My black wheels are brown after >250 miles . Would having the wheels ceramic coated help? Any suggestions are appreciated

Here is my recommendation, this is what i used my C63. This is a carbon ceramic pad, so it is near dustless, and the performance was a big upgrade overstock. I tracked my car, drag raced my car, and drove on twisty mountain roads and they never faded or failed me once. For the price they can not be beat.
