Try a trick I learned here on the forum last year...

Take your leaf blower (or go buy a cheap electric one if you don't own one) and blow off your rims and brake discs before you dry the car.

In fact, blow as much water off the whole car before you dry it.

Frankly, any scheme you devise to diminish towels of any sort coming into contact with your paint is a good thing and keeps swirl marks from appearing prematurely.

I blow dry my car every time I wash it, and even more religiously now that I've "upgraded" to cross drilled rotors, which can easily drip rusty water drops onto my new Carrera lights.
