Rimsavers are made from a near rigid plastic, that if it wasn’t made in such a thin design would appear as a hard plastic. It gets its flexibility from the thin lightweight design profile. Rimsavers are a bond on solution and have a semi-gloss smooth appearance that brake dust wipes straight off. Rimsavers have a stiff fitting guide lip on the top side and the 3M VHB (very high bond) tape is sealed from the weather, brake dust, road salt and wheel cleaners by a sealing lip. BOND ON UNIVERSAL FITTING In all honesty, the product looks great and will do the job as advertised. If they work for you, that’s great. For me, I’ll just make sure I keep away from the curb rash. IF YOU ARE LOOKING TO REPLACE A CURRENT SET OF RIMSAVERS, THE NEW RIMBLADES LIGHT IS NOW THE SAME PROFILE AND INCLUDES THE SAME JOINT COVERS AND IS A SUITABLE REPLACEMENT. CONSTRUCTION So which is better? We fitted Alloygators on the driver’s side of our test car and Rimblades on the passenger side to find out.

Alloy wheel protection? Rimblades, high quality, self

Our test looked at how easy each was to fit, then we rated the protection the products offered by driving very slowly along the same stretch of kerb, noting any scuff marks to each protector or alloy wheel. Cost was the final factor. What’s distressing here is, again, according to Skoda, British motorists are spending hundreds of millions of pounds on kerb damage. This type of alloy wheel damage is widespread - so what do you need to do to avoid paying out for such costs? How to Prevent Alloy Wheel Kerb Damage

Alloy kerb damage is preventable. As it happens, kerb damage to your alloys may occur entirely innocently. You may scuff your wheels when parallel parking, for example. Of course, you may end up damaging your wheels if you need to swerve - and hit a kerb.

The new Rimblades® Ultra are made from Santoprene by Exxon Mobil (appearance of hard rubber) with a micro fine wire core to prevent expansion or contraction due to extreme temperatures. Rimblades® Ultra have a genuine 3M GTE6208 Automotive grade VHB tape factory applied to the rear side. They are available in 8 colours. Due to the lightweight design, although they use a 5MM wide tape, we have successfully fitted them on narrower flat lips with no issues. Rimsavers require cutting to size during each application, and are supplied in 4 x 2.1m metre lengths and will fit wheels up to and including 24” in diameter. Additionally included in the Rimsavers kit is a set of joint covers and adhesive, so even if you don’t get the cut just right, you can cover where the ends meet.
