steel rotor / alloy wheel corrosion

[plugger340]

Is there anyway to minimize the alloy wheel corrosion that occurs when the alloy rim seats against the steel rotor? There is always enough corrosion (from dissimiliar metals reacting - aluminum against steel) that I always have to kick on the tire's side to break the bond. Sometimes I have to rotate the tire a few times while I beat on it. Does anything work to minimize the corrosion ; like wax or oil?

I use spray zinc. Eastwood sells it.

I coat the mating surface of the alloy wheel with never seize. I use the silver aluminum-based stuff and smear it on with a finger whenever I have the wheels off. (Just on my modern iron drivers.) Always a problem in the rust belt states.

Same as above except I use high temp Copper-Kote.
