You'r out of luck there. If you want to stop you'll wear your pads. If you wear your pads they create dust.....

Try a decent wheel acid cleaner lik Auto Glym Clean Wheels and polish teh wheels once you've cleaned them. This can help stop the dust sticking quite so much for a few weeks anyway.

I use Ebc Turbo discs and redstuff pads..

together with a coat of wheel wax... this stuffis great and helps repel dust on the wheels.. you only need car shampoo to get the dust off...

you can find it here.. http://www.speeding.co.uk/acatalog/c...Wheel_Wax.html
