    lets see pics and see what is going on. Dust you can clean off, if they are pitted, that is another story.

    Pro wheels? Matte finishes are notoriously difficult to clean. Mine are ceramic coated and it still usually takes Ferrex or an APC with a pressure washer to eradicate brake dust. Definite downside of the finish.

    Hot shot or hot wheels something like that by meguiars (like $5-6.99 at Walmart for a translucent purple bottle) does a great job with brake dust. After following those directions I rinse and just run a regular wash/wax soap (meguiars again - neon yellow) over them and that gets them as shiny as I want them to be.
