AlloyGator Black Alloy Wheel Protectors to Avoid Kerb Scratches & Scuffs – Fits Up to 24" x 4 Wheels | Fits All Cars | Adhesive Free Car Exterior Accessory | 15 Colour Options

If you’re running decent alloys and don’t fancy shelling out for a refurb every time a kerb jumps out at you, this kit’s a smart investment. Designed to sit between the tyre bead and rim, these protectors offer full-edge coverage without glue, tape, or gimmicks. The black finish keeps it stealthy—no flashy trim, just clean protection. 🧰 Installation Let’s be honest—this isn’t a five-minute job. You’ll need to deflate the tyre slightly, clean the rim edge, and use the supplied clips and mallet to seat the protector properly. It’s a snug fit, and once it’s in, it stays put. I did mine in about 40 minutes with a mate and a bit of patience. No adhesive means no mess, and they’re reusable if you swap tyres later. Tip: If you’re not confident, a tyre shop can fit them for a small fee. Worth it if you want it done right. 🛡️ Build Quality Made from a reinforced nylon composite—flexible enough to absorb impact, rigid enough to hold shape. They’ve taken scrapes from kerbs, gravel, and even a rogue pallet corner without cracking or popping out. The black finish is matte, not glossy, so it blends in with most wheel styles and doesn’t show dirt easily. Durability: Survived motorway runs, heavy rain, and rough terrain No fade or warp after months of use Easy to clean with standard wheel cleaner 🚗 Compatibility Fits wheels from 12" to 24" Works best with tyre profiles 45 and above Not ideal for ultra-low profiles—can interfere with bead seating Available in 15 colours, but black keeps it subtle and clean 👍 Pros ✅ Full rim protection—edge-to-edge coverage ✅ No adhesive—secure mechanical fit ✅ Reusable—can be refitted after tyre changes ✅ Tough nylon blend—resists kerb rash and impact ✅ Subtle styling—black blends with most alloys ✅ MOT-safe—doesn’t interfere with tyre performance 👎 Cons ❌ Fitting takes effort—deflate tyres and use a mallet ❌ Not suited for ultra-low profiles—check clearance ❌ Adds slight bulk—may not suit show builds ❌ Can trap dirt—needs occasional clean behind the lip

Quality product

Takes a little getting used to doing the first wheel. I was concerned having fitted the rim, there would be an air leak between the tyre and the rim itself, and there was a leak where the two rim ends meet. I pulled out both ends and applied a compound gasket seal using a tube of it in a gun such as you would use to apply mastic around a bath. That took care of the leak. The glue supplied cured very quickly and stopped me gluing the two ends, so, I didn't use it but only to affix the covering cap to conceal the joint. On the second tyre, I first applied the gasket seal in the gap between the rim and the tyre all around the circumference. It acts as a lubricant, so I never used soapy liquid. This worked well. I did not use the glue but only for the capping. No leaks. Looks a treat !! Best rims yet. I've tried the others. They come off or they expand and come away. I like Alloygaitors as there's little chance they will detach as they are sunk inside the alloy rim. The second tyre took me around 30 mins. I took it off the car and placed it on a work bench - much better to work with.

After a few weeks of use the strips come off. Half fell off and one unravelled whilst driving and was slapping side of the car and hard to emergency stop on motorway. The hard plastic spikes that are meant to grip to the tyre to secure it scraped and scratched side of the car causing £1000+ damage. Do NOT buy this product cheaper to scuff your alloys.

A good product, but the fitting wasn't as easy as I had thought. I was grateful that the return procedure was made very easy and without any problems. If I still have trouble parking my new car I will certainly order again and have them fitted by my mechanic.

They state u can fit these yourself, not convinced. I bought a set and had them put on my alloys, my local loyal tyre fitters had problems But got them on ok, did a good job till I mangled the rear passenger side one on a high kerb. If I had not had this on there would have been a very expensive repair to the alloy as they are split rims. Bought this one same as the others and had a lot of trouble finding a garage who was prepared to fit it. When I did I watched it being fitted. Took 40 minuets and the guy obviously knew what he was doing. There’s quite a bit to it and it can pop out when you fill the tyre with air. Saying all that would I but this product again. Defo yes saved me a fortune in repairs.

Do not go up and down kerbs with this product as it pinches tyre on way down and cuts sidewall of tyre also they come out of rim, things to be wary of. They do look good on wheels, would consider buying again tho’ trial and error has been expensive. New tyres on front at a cost of £165 each.

So far so good! I had my local tyre place fit them on 3 months ago. They are very strong and sturdy! I Love them on my car.

Pour insérer les AlloyGator sans problème, mettre un peu de WD40 sur le pourtour de la jante et le pneu et ensuite insérer les AlloyGator avec une massette en plastic caoutchouteuse ! Super résultat ! Bonne qualité.

I have this product on two of my automobiles and just replaced tires on one, It is difficult, if not impossible to reuse them again, so I purchased another set and will install them myself.

Un producto extremadamente bueno, recomiendo este producto al 100% si quieres proteger tus rines y darle un aspecto excelente ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I recommend this British Made wheel protector for your vehicle. The product is made well, it's tough, durable and can take a beating when installing them on your wheels. Follow the directions and watch a install video on YouTube to get familiar on how to properly install. Use the correct tools- plastic hammer, use plenty of soapy water for lubrication when hammering it on to your wheel. Ensure the tire is completely deflated if you choose to do it while on jacks with wheel/tire installed on the vehicle.

Great protection for the wheels
