Wheel Skin Review


Recommended Posts

Posted

Now that you have had the wheel skins for a while, how are they holding up? Do you have to remove the wheel skins to remove the lug nuts? Thanks

Man...I didn't know these existed. Got me all excited, then I realized you can't seem to get them for 20" wheels.

Did you guys have any issues with the wheel and tires being out of balance after these were installed?

 

Also would like to see what the skins do to the wheel after the have been on for a while.

 

Love the wheel design just wish they came in chrome.

I put a set of the chrome wheel skins on my '15.  May get a set of black also for a different look.  Chrome ones are made with retainer behind the lug nut, have to loosen the lugs, pop cap on then retighten the lug.  Black ones show a retainer tab at the spoke.  I'm assuming one of these was a redesign, wonder which design will stay on better.

Does anyone have updated pics of the Gloss black ones on the stock18" Silver rims? I would like to see how they cover the inside of the rim..

They do not cover the inside of the wheel.  I painted my chrome this weekend black. Then I bought some cheap matte black center caps.  Looks good on my WT

 

I will post some pictures tomorrow as it's too dark tonight

Been a while since i visited this thread.  For the past few years I alternated between the black and chrome.  They held up perfect and never dulled or faded.  Had no issue with wheel balance and got 38k miles out of the tires.  Just sold the truck and waiting on my 19.  I highly recommend the wheel skins - 3.5 years later...
