Yesterday was with a friend to change his brake pads in his City, while he was changing have told him why not remove the dust brake shield, as there is no use or benefit mostly are to protect the rotors from small stones, rocks or water but it hardly ever rain here and also hard to get hit by rocks, so we took it off, and found out it the rotors looks a lot nicer with alloy wheels. We took it off for better air flow to rotor to cool it We took it for a ride found no change, but when we drove it high speed and stop many times we found out the fade is a bit less. I am going to change my brake pads soon and will do it.
