GM Weathertech style mats?

js4506 · February 10, 2017

Has anyone tried these weathertech style mats by GM? They're form fitted floor liner style mats that go up the sides just like husky or weathertech but have the chevy or gm logo in them.

I have a high country so I've narrowed it down between these or the weathertechs since they both come in the cocoa color

I have them. While I loved at first, I found a few nuances with them. The gas pedal area is not protected unlike the Husky. There is no center hump protection like you can get on the Husky. The rear liner is made of (2) pieces with a seam in the middle. Potential chance of ingress for gunk.

I'm considering getting a Husky set myself.

Alexantics did a Weather tech to Husky video comparison and based on that + the feedback I've read about WT, I'll be going to Husky soon.

+1 for husky.

sorry it doesn't match your interior, but i'd rather have a black floor mat and a protected floor.

I have the over the hump coco weathertechs and love them. No complaints whatsoever.

I had the GM version and loved them until after the first snow storm, the lack of protection under gas pedal and the clips have holes resulted in the carpet getting soaked. I didn't notice this until a few days later when I pulled them to wash the salt off.

I sold the fronts to a guy at work who has vinyl floors and bought the Husky xact contours.

It's to bad because I liked the GM better but a wet carpet is not good.

I wore a hole in my factory style mat in the first year. They suck. I have the weather tech mats now and I wish I had got the husky's. The weather techs are way to ridged and once they get a crease it's bent forever.

I like the protection of the door sill with the GM ones, but like the gas pedal protection of the huskys. I modified my GM ones to protect under the gas pedal, but if i had to do it all over again, I would take a long look at the huskys over the GM ones.

I have the over-the-hump Weathertech mats in the front as well as Weathertech's in the back. I love them and have had them in my past three vehicles with no issue.

+1 for the annoying lack of protection under the gas pedal. That's where most of the salt/water is going to drip off your boots. My carpet is a crusted white mess right there. I'll sell my GM front ones and get some Husky Liners for the front. I like the back one from GM though.

My all terrain came with the GM mats. I ran them for about a week before pulling them out and putting in the WT's from my '15.

I put the Husky X-Act Contour style in mine about 3 weeks ago.

Love them way cheaper and better material then weather tech IMO.

HUSKY!!

I like my GM version ones. They came with my truck but they are not as hard as huskies like I've had in precious cars which makes it easier to pull in and out for cleaning. The huskies I had in my Challenger also had really sharp pins on the bottom of the mat to keep it from moving and they were actually pretty sharp and made it a pain to take them out without scratching the leather. I'm not sure if the Silverado or sierra ones are the same as them. There is a slot where it's not protected under the gas pedal but nothing ever gets in there except a few pieces of grass maybe. The back is very nice as it is two pieces that fit together snugly like a puzzle. My only complaint is it doesn't cover the hump in the front of my car. Other than that I think the GM ones are great.

Same experience for me on the GM Liners. Weather here in Dallas is nothing in comparison to those where snow, ice, mud get sloshed around in there with the GM liners. I'd be terrified. My fear would be one day a drink or coffee gets dropped and it'll be over. My boys like fighting over the jump seat and the unprotected hump.

I have the same fear in the back where the to liners meet in that "puzzle" connected seam.
