Brake Dust Shield"

Anyone know where I can buy a brake dust shield for aftermarket rims? I've been looking online and could only find shields for stock wheels. Or is there any otherway to stop brake dust from going on my 20" rims?

So you paid how much for 20" rims and you want them to look like $50 steelies?

Assuggested, try better brake pads. Ceramic is great, but not so compatible w/ OEM rotors.

Actually, I replaced my factory pads with Wagner Thermo Quiet, a top of the line semi-metallic. I just told him to do the search on the ceramic so it would steer him to reading about brake options. High grade semi-metallic, kevlar, and ceramic. They each have pluses and minuses but anything beats the dust. i just don't like the shields personally.
