brake dust covers ??????

Anyone know of a good manufacturer of brake dust covers that are of good quality and where can I buy these? I'm tired of cleaning these wheels on my 91 Black Max SE.

dust covers are also heat shields.. they prevent air from circulating around the brakes to help them cool, and it causes overheating problems and premature wear on the brakes.

Just get OEM pads that don't dust very badly, and your problem is solved.

yes just bend over and clean them!!! a tip to keep some of that brake dust and dirt off of the rims is to use a quality polish and wax on them!! My rims i have on mine come thru after a cleaning and still look good after being driven thru the rain!!!
