Kleen Wheels - Anyone have them??

I came across this product (see below) and was wondering if anyone has used them?? I am considering getting these to use with my stock 17" wheels on my e90 325i (my winter tires). I was wondering if they stop or decrease the buildup of brake dust on the rims significantly? Also does it decrease the aesthetic value - Does it look bad since the rotors will no longer be totally visible?? Anyone have any pics with these installed becuase i would love to see how they look so i can gage if the decrease in brake dust is outweighs the look.

I have used them in the past and they do decrease the amount of dust on the outside of your wheels. They weren't very noticeable on 14" wheels, but I would think they might look a little strange on 17" or 18" wheels.

For almost as long as they've been around, there have been people who claim they can cause overheating of the brakes due to lack of airflow. I never experienced that, but I don't drive all-out on the street and I always took them out before taking a car on the track.
