Sorry I'm late to the thread, only just signed up! But I use rimblades Scuffs, blend in great the the limited edition 20" alloys but red would look just as nice 😎

It's alright buddy, are they any good and I got the rimblades flex but they didn't stick to the alloys >:( confused but I tried a set from rimblades themselves and seeing how it goes but if not I'll return them due to them not working and get a set of scuffs if you say there okaythanks buddy

Don't get me wrong, I had some trouble when applying them, I think it's difficult because of them being tightly rolled up in the packaging, so straightening them out before applying them seems to help! They're great, been through the carwash a few times no bother, and seem really tough [THUMBS UP SIGN] no worries!

I thought I did, but couldn't see anything afterwards, so I guess they're doing the job!
