Lightbulb tired of dirty wheels on your car?

ok so i found a way to keep my wheels clean from dirt, dust and dog hair. well all you kneed is paintbrushes as wide as your tires (if there smaller you will kneed alot more). cut the bristles of two of the brushes and glue them onto the inside of the front bumper infront of the wheels (or across the whole front bumper). if you wanna keep your back wheels clean when you turn you can glue the bristles on the inside of the side skirt. Make sure you dont leave too mush slack or the bristles will get stuck under the wheel. this helps when your inside on your floor.

I think he means in front of the wheels, to knock the crap away from them before it even gets there

the concept of pretty much a street sweeper, only its sweeping the tires and wheels, not a bad idea actually. i would think that acid brushs would work best.

Exclamation Advanced Idea...

What if you put the brustles ALL the way around your front bumper? It would stop even more dust from getting in the way. You might have to pick up your XMod and pick out some of the hairs on the brustles, but it would sure pick up alot more dust than just brustles in front of your tires. Even WITH these brustles, you should still take the screw off the top of the knuckels and clean out your wheel shafts. This is what almost ALWAYS happens to my XMod, and it slows it down ALOT. So, just a neat idea that popped up in my head... but yes, the streetsweeper XMod idea would be SWEET! I would buy that thing for around 200 bucks if it worked! Allright, my post is allready too long, so its coming to a close. Again, just a cool idea by burnout515! But, I'm afraid it wouldn't work extremely well. Like if you raced on carpet, it would REALLY SLOW YOU DOWN. Anyway, great idea!
