as the person who changes your tires, just don’t hit a curb pls.. (edit for clarity) putting those things on your rim while already having low wall tires (which are stiffer and harder to get off as it is) makes it so much more difficult to change your tire. i get it’s for protection or whatever but then don’t complain when a 30 min breakdown balance rotate takes 2 hours bc our machines are having a hard time with your rims. getting the bead up with those on is damn near impossible with those kind of tires and most people who put those on want to keep them on.. also not to mention all the dirt and shit that gets under them so when you do take them off or sell your car your rims are trashed. just be cautious and don’t curb yo shit.. makes my life AND yours a lot easier. :)

I've got 20" wheels and let me tell you that rubber bullshit ain't gonna protect anything. Especially since pretty much all tyres for the big wheels have inbuilt trim for "protection"(my ass) already. It's like wearing a carton box on your chest for the combat mission. On a serious note though, the best tips to protect low profile wheels: 1. Never let your girl drive your car(mine butchered my alloys 10 days after I bought my car, my mistake learned) 2. Always park in reverse preferably with side mirror(s) angled so you can see the floor and curbs in tricky situations. 3. Have a Terminator vision or a schizophrenic paranoia for any mf curb out there on the planet. But yeah, they do look amazing on some cars and it's not tacky or overkill, it's worth it.

@@tyreksimmons4167 or just know not to hit a curb? 😂 what’s the point in driving something that nice if you drive so little u can’t go without hitting a curb 😂. Plus the only time I’ve hit them I’ve just gone over them never scratched a rim. I drive an 08 Cadillac DTS and a 99 Camry so no, it’s not easy to go over a curb either
