Rim Protectors

[automan25]

Has anyone had any experience with this product? I'm curious if it does what it promises and stays on the wheel for a decent length of time.

My tires have that built into the tire bead so it sticks out to protect the rim. I think most low profile tires do.

Interesting. I'll have to check my tires for that.

I got a kick out of the thread title.

Cheap tires used to sometimes be called "rim protectors" because that's about all they were good for.

But there are a number of tire models now which have slightly extended areas on the sidewall to provide some protection to the wheel - if the driver is attentive enough to feel them make contact.
