Smile Chrome wheel skins

Just put on the chrome wheel skins on my 08. They look great. Just pull off the trim ring and they snap right on. No extra weight issues. Got them on line Suburban Wheel Cover. $90 with shipping and worth every penny. Check it out

PICTURES!!!

I saw these on Ebay and wondered what they really look like. The ones I saw were plastic - are yours?

Yes they are plastic but they are very shiney and don't feel flimsy. I really don't think you can go wrong. They don't look like plastic. My 09 Ram has chrome clad wheels that are basically plastic. Those cost $1000 and these skins look just as good. It is a really economical way to dress up the car

They are plastic but they look better than the pictures. And I figure I can always take them off in the winter. It was a nice upgrade for under $100. No remounting, no extra weight, 2 min to install. You won't be sorry

You will like them. Shipping took 2 days. And you won't need to order those trim rings.
