Brake Dust
Hi Everyone,
First time poster. Has anyone seen or heard of disk brake covers that keep the dust from accumulating on the wheel? I seen them years ago with a sand filled outer tube that helped keep them balanced. They just fit between the rim and the rotor. The concept seemed good but I didn't try them at the time.

Wayout1, I have seen them before and I think they still sell them but not with the sand. I heard that they don't allow your rotors to cool down normally and will cause them to warp.
