Is the brake dust cover's good to use to keep the brake dust off your rim's. I heard that some cover's are'nt good to use because it block's the air from cooling them. Is there any truth to this.

I heard the same about those Clean Wheels brake dust shields. I've seen them on some Mercedes and they really make the wheel look cheap. Better off dusting off the wheels after each drive ( like I do), changing to ceramic brakes, or simply washing the wheels with car wash once a week + -
Dusting off the wheels after each drive? What do you use, Bill? Are you going to go to the ceramic?Comment

I use an older sheepskin mitt, fits very well all the way through my 17" 5 spoke wheels .I guess "each drive" is kinda exagerated but it seems that way

I asked my car mailing list about those a few years ago. General consensus was just what you've said -- they don't allow enough air flow over the brake components and coule lead to warping the rotors. Easier to wash my wheels than to replace rotors
