FMC Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 I've never liked this sort of thing, and i still don't I find avoiding kerbs is the best way of protecting my wheels. They also end up looking a lot better that way too. :) Make sure you take some pics to show us when you've fitted yours. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Girlonmars Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Im in two minds about these - I would love to see what they look like fitted though. Im paranoid about any kurb-related incidents! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewL Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Seeing as two of my alloys have a tiny bit of snow related kerbing and one of them has a fair bit of carelessness related kerbing I am seriously considering getting these, even though I don't think they look that great.

Kasper-N Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Wouldn't those make the wheels very unbalanced and shaky unless you get the position 100% right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexavfc Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 £29 notes for these! I think I would rather take my chances and put the £29 towards having my wheels refurbed if I curb them as oppose to having these rottern things on my alloys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
