Kleen Wheels Dust Shields
What is the experience Level with products like the Kleen Wheel Dust Shields to eliminate the brake dust on chrome wheels ?? Looks like it could be a good solution. If you know of something better please let me know.
Thanks
Thanks

They would probably block the dust but also block cooling air. They would look weird on a Vette because the wheel design is very open allowing views of the rotors & calipers like most performance cars.

I think they look weird blocking the rotors like that. I'd rather wipe the grime and show off the brakes.

Can I pick up these durastops locally? Is the pad change on a vette straight forward like other cars?

Kleen wheels
The work great with C4 Sawblade wheels. I have even seen them look good with C5 Wagon wheels on the Pace Cars painted to match the car.
Probably wouldn't look good with the thin spoke C5 wheels.
I've got a set from my C4. If you are interested send me a PM.
