I bought my Viggen 6 years ago and they were not on it at that time. There has been no downside to it in my case.
Some say that it isn't a "brake dust shield" so much as it is to shield the brakes from road debris. I live in the Seattle area and so I'd rate my exposure somewhere in the middle (it's not like I'm cruising down dirt roads all day, but there's still plenty of rain, leaves, etc that I deal with).
