Excessive? Nope, that's normal on our trucks - TONS of brake dust on
the front rims. The fronts normally do the majority of the braking on
any vehicle, but on our trucks it seems to be even more biased.

A number of DOC members (Durango Owner's Club) have put on KleenWheels
dust shields on and have been pretty happy with the results. I don't
know if I'd put them on my truck though.
