Rim blades

I was wondering if any of you guys have used Rim Blades on the HHR SS factory 18 inch aluminum wheels. I wonder how well they fit and stay on the wheels.

Howdy from down state in Kannapolis, I used to spend a lot of time up in Newton at Dale Earnhardt Chevrolet before his passing.

Gotta be honest, until your post, I'd never heard of Rim Blades before. It's the gray hair and reading glasses that are at fault. I'm sure somebody here has them, or they're considering them.

RimBlades

From the looks of 'em, they'll save folks with ultra low profile sidwalls from "Curb Rash" on their rims.

Hi, my Dale Earnhardt friend! Good to hear from you. I was just at Dale Earnhardt Chevrolet 2 weeks ago for an oil change and a 4-wheel alignment on our 2004 Corvette. I can still feel his presence when I go there. That dealership was always a struggling business until he acquired it.
Anyway, getting back to the Rim Blades, not only do they protect the wheels but I just think they look damn good. I, like you, grew up during the era where tires had some color; wide whitewalls, narrow whitewalls, dual and triple stripe whitewalls, blue lines, gold lines, red lines and white letters. So, I like them because they do add some color to the vehicle's tires.

Those are pretty cool, I might have to order a set.

Oh, and hello from Salisbury my fellow North Carolinians.
