Choosing a rim trim ring
A rim protector is a trim ring that sits on the outer lip of the wheel, where curb strikes and tire bead contact tend to occur. It adds a layer between the tire and the lip, and it changes how the wheel looks without swapping the wheel. The ring should be sized to the wheel diameter and the wheel’s lip profile, so check fit before buying a finish.
Rim rings are often fitted with new tires, since the bead area is easier to reach when the tire is off the rim. Inspect the ring and its bolts after the first few drives, and look for loose fasteners or scuffs that show contact with rocks or the tire. Keep the wheel clean so the finish stays even.
- Match ring diameter to the wheel
- Check tire clearance before tightening
- Inspect bolts after first drives
