I recently purchased 2 sets of these dust shields from the same web site you mentioned in your posting. I put them on front & back, they work great. I've had them on for 3 weeks now, & no dust. Very easy to install. I still have my stock 18's on. Well worth the money. coolcoxy.

how often would you have to take the sheilds off to clean the built up brake dust that is behind them instead of on the rims? if you don't clean behind the sheild, will that affect braking?

Just ordered a set of these....I wouldnt think you would need to take them off to clean behind them...surely the brake dust couldnt build up enough to interfere with anything..A bigger concern for me is if they will affect brake cooling...???

hey puff man, let us know if you have anything good to say about the dust shields. that may be the way to go to help get rid of the brake dust. i still think nissan needs to find and fix the problem. if it is just caused by the brake pads then you would think that they would change to a different brand. anyway, give soem feed back on the covers.
