Anyone try/use wheel skins

I recently put-out $1600 for wheels on my F250. The wheels that I wanted for the Dakota are out, Cannon. And, the wheels would be used during Winter. So, I just came accross chrome wheel skins for $60.

Anyone have experience with such a product??? Does it look decent???

Thanks,

Lance

I worked with a fella a few years back who had a wild hair one night and sprayed his factory wheels black.
They looked like poop! so his old lady got him a set of those wheel skins to go back over them. I could not believe how good they looked, there still on it to this day and look 100% real and good.

IMO good product.

Amazing product!!

Worth every penny. I got these for $15 per, icluding shipping. The-hub-cap-king, ebay. Plastic, light, but awesome appearance. It will be interesting to see what others have to say w/o knowing that they are plastic. Took me one minute to pop all four on by hand.
