AlloyGator Black Alloy Wheel Protectors – Up to 24" x 4 Wheels

I bought these because my wife kept damaging the M sport rims (with low profile tires) on her 2022 BMW X5. We had the rims repaired and repainted twice in 3 years. I thought this product was more expensive than other similar related products, but I didn't want to cheap out and get something that did not look nice and serve its purpose. I just got done installing this product, and I am very happy with the outcome. They look seamless with the rims and were not overly difficult to install. Just press in one of the ends in with your hand and start hammering away with a rubber hammer/mallet working your way around the rim. Don't align the product around the entire rim before you start hammering. The product will self align as you go around with the rubber hammer. Just press the starting end in with your finger and start hammering. Cut the excess product where the two ends meet. I would recommend cutting off the piece that extends a little beyond the end of the product as I found it unnecessary and the ends align better without it. I would also recommend hammering hard. I took it easy with the rubber hammer at first thinking I didn't want to damage the rim or the product, but I found the product went in easy when I hammered hard. I realize now that the rubber hammer wasn't going to damage the rim or the product. You need a rubber hammer, a jack, and an air pump to inflate the tires when you are done. I doubt I am going to have to look at curb rash on my wife's rims again. I'm very happy with this product, and I was pleasantly surprised with the ease of installation.

Very good product better then my last one fit so neatly easy install all you need is a rubber hammer and a cutter

I have been using allogator wheel protectors for years. It had protected my previous car’s wheels and tires. This was the first car accessory I bought when I have a new car. I love the gray color as it was subtle and matched with the car’s color. But the product came with some imperfection quality (bended) as shown in the pictures. As I was already at the installer’s shop and paid for the service, I went ahead and have the wheel protectors installed.

I acquired this product specifically for my car's rims. I consulted with three acquaintances who work as mechanics, hoping they would assist in the installation. However, they all expressed their reservations and declined to proceed. Determined, I then approached two different auto body shops, seeking their expertise. Unfortunately, the first establishment refused to undertake the task, while the second agreed and proceeded with the installation. Regrettably, upon lowering my vehicle from the lift, one of the guards dislodged. Concerned about potential damage while driving, the technicians promptly removed the guards. Given that the return period has now elapsed and there is no local support line available, I find myself out of $120.

Total waste of money. Purchased 2 sets about a year ago. Tried installing them following the online instructions and video. But after spending 2 weekends I was unable to install them they would not sit flush against the wheel as indicated in the video. I reached out to support and they asked for photos which I submitted and they ghosted me. Never heard back. Since I waited so long trying to get support from the manufacturer I was unable to return them. Don't waste your money. I also had to purchase some tools for the installation like a dead blow hammer. Installation is super difficult compared to other designs and the metal clips which grip the tire ended up scratching my black rim .. DO NOT RECOMMEND.

Exactly as described. Getting them installed today.

Update: The company read my review and ended up refunding my money for the protectors based on all my troubles. I will tell you that I stand by my previous review, but if you get a heavy dead blow hammer, it makes it easier. I got a 4lb one instead of a 2lb one and was able to get the rim protectors in finally and they've held for a couple of month and are doing what they are advertised to do as my wife has hit a couple of curb with no rim damage. First off, the clips are a HUGE pain in the *** to install. Wear gloves and have pilers, it really sucks. Then the super glue is completely dried up, be sure to have your own for installation on your car. Then, my package was missing about 30 clips, I had to contact the manufacturer to send me more so I could do the 4th wheel. Next, even in a fully deflated tire, hammering in the alloygator between the rim and wheel is another HUGE pain in the ***. Just be ready for it take a while to get it flush. I think it would be easier to take the tire off the car and do them one at a time. We'll see how they perform, but you should be aware the clips and the hammering on is an absolute chore. You've been warned. Giving it two stars until my wife hits a curb and we see how they perform.
