Kleen Wheels For a Viper ?

[Kevin ACR]

Assuming that Kleen wheels are plates mounted between the wheel and rotor, lets consider what this product does.

Seems to me that it blocks the airflow so that the brake dust does not show up on the wheel. If brake dust is blocked so is airflow, thus so is cooling of the rotor and caliper ...not a good thing.

Cosmetically good , functionally bad.

My local mag wheel shop does not recommend those covers due to the heat issue as well. That said, if you were to look at the clearance between the front and rear wheel, you would see it is slight...Kleen wheels probably would not fit anyway. I switched to EBC green pads...very little brake dust now..a huge improvement.

I switched to the EBC green stuff and bought the Dilusi Motorsports Viper/Porsche Deflector kit($99.00) and with this combo NO brake dust. I have driven the car about 200 miles and nothing. Before you could drive it around the block and the wheels would be coated with brake dust.

Good Luck,
