When I had bundt wheels, mine never got dirty from brake dust - they still

these liners are still available.

What you call "factory inner liners" are more likely aftermarket "Kleen Wheels" and are forbidden by Mercedes (there are TSBs on the subject) because they seriously compromise the brakes and their stopping power under prolonged use or emergency conditions.
