They can be unattractive, especially for the GS. Also, some people feel they can contribute towards brake fade because of heat buildup behind the dustcover. I never noticed it, but then again I wasn't driving my car on an Autocross either.

So that's what those covers are for! I notice my neighbor's '02 Altima has them on all of her wheels, and I think to myself, what's the purpose of those covers and why do they spoil the look of the Altima?

Anyway, back on topic...
