Would also love to find something that would actually work and wouldn't be cheesy (I am not putting purple on my wheels), but these (Turtle Wax 50699/50698) don't seem to have great reviews; eg: falling off issues ... and I wonder how you claim warranty on parts you no longer have since you've lost them on the road? No idea on protection but sure seem too flimsy to actually protect.

One of the reasons I went back to the stock 20" M-Sport wheels.

My first G05 had the 21" Y-poke style 741 M wheels, and even as a careful driver I still hit/scraped the rims a few times, mainly in car the park with curb guides.

I had the option of taking my wheels across to my 2019 M-Sport G05, and instead chose to stay with the standard M-Sport wheels - 20" 740 M Bicolours. These wheels are normal profile, but still look good. Had my car since Sept 2019, and they still look like new.

Those rim protectors aren't my cup of tea. I got the 21 inch orbit grey wheels, and figured the curb rash insurance would be worth it.

Within the first 2 months, I got some curb rash on one of the wheels, and the insurance covered the ~$200 worth of damage ($0 deductible). Worth the investment.

How much was the curb rash insurance? My dealer only offered rim and tire protection for 3500

3500 seems a bit high I paid around 1500 and have already done two tires and 5 rims.... on the wife's X3... I've done one tire on my X5.

They need to make something 5x bigger than that for when my wife drives the car.. :\

I ended up getting both the wheel & tire insurance priced for me at $2172 and what's called Ding Shield Ultimate, at $1130. I realized quickly that that the wheel & tire insurance wasn't really worth it, since the Ding Shield Ultimate covered curb rash. I cancelled the wheel & tire and kept the ding shield.

I got my curb rash fixed under that ding shield warranty. It primarily fixes things like door dings and other minor damage to the car, which is nice since I live in Atlanta and routinely park in garages with lines that are uncomfortably small.

Check out Alloy Gators. They are top notch. I have used them on several sets of wheels.
