Default Brake dust

Just got a 2000 LX470 in perfect condition. Brakes look to be almost new but the dust is awful. Usually in 3-4 days the wheels need washing again. Are there dust shields available for the LX 470. Has anyone had experience with them and do you recommend?

do a google search on Kleen Wheels. Many autoparts sites carry them.

I used them before, not bad. Cuts down on 90% of the dust, but also cuts down on the ventilation to the rotors. They did not do anything to the balance or rotation of the wheel.
I choose not to put them on my ES.
