Anyone familiar with these rim protectors
Came across these wheel protectors on another web site. Anyone familiar with using them? Think they might be a good idea to protect rims from curb rash.
Check them out - rimblades. RimBlades Alloy Wheel Protectors - Protect Your Rims In Style

Just get tires that extend beyond the edge of the rim. My BFG g-Force Sport Tires, Toyo Road Race, Toyo R888 and Continental DSW all have this. I have seen plenty of other UHP Tires that include this feature.
Of course, if you like that stretched tire look, then,.... I guess.

Well i have to ask why are there rims being sold with curb rash? I guess those people must be idiots who don't know how to either drive or park their vehicles.
Maybe, just maybe the rimblades would dress up the rims and protect them in the future so they wouldn't make the driver look like they don't know how to park.
