I would "think" that they would hinder air flow abound the rotors

Never seen them, wouldn't buy until there was plenty of feedback.

I would not buy these. These are essentially the same thing as a brake dust shield. If you have rotor warping or brake fade issues, many times the first thing that's recommended is to remove these if you have them. They retain heat around the rotors and will likely contribute to warping. Unless you drive your truck like an old lady (only 50 miles per week, to and from grocery store/short trips) these will hinder brake performance and life.

My opinion, but well founded and researched.

Thanks guys... I think I'm just going to look into some ceramic pads to cut down on the dust. I'm just about due for a brake job due to continous city driving thus, I think I'll just go that route.

Thanks again!
