I wouldn't use them. Disc brakes require ventilation so as not to build up excessive heat. While the Kleen wheels will stop most of the brake dust they will also reduce the amount of air getting to the discs, which increases the possibility of warping your disc. I would just deal with it until time to change the pads and go with a ceramic pad (I use Akebono Euro pads) and that will reduce the dust by 99%.
