Rim Protectors - Yes or No?

Bit like putting covers on your car seats
What's the point just enjoy them

I agree with Nick, they look pretty atrocious and seem a bit of a strange look to a wheel

some tyres, Falkens? come with some form of rim protection, I had them on Dunlops on the works car for a while, did the job and looked pretty normal, have to agree that these dont look good
cheers

I wouldn't mind if my tyres had no rim protectors. But they'd have to be black.
The problem is they would make your wheels look smaller.
