I really like the black wire wheels. Not so sure about the black grille, though...
...and no "tread rubbers"
In my opinion, they are useless. When ordering my baby, I didn't know better, so I even took an extra set. Now when washing the car, or when it's raining, water collects behind and between them leaving stains, when not being wiped off.
Hi Ivo,
Treads are not really useless, but you are right about water collection. You have to be careful because these treads are fixed with standard steel coach bolts, so after a while this assembly generates a catalytic phenomenon between the aluminium of the wing and the steel.
I reinstalled with the S/S button bolts, plastic washers, nylocs and “Duralac” to avoid catalyse. In addition I used silicone between treads and wing to avoid retaining water. Up to know it works and I am no longer using air gun to dry the water after every washing. Of course it is longer to remove and reinstall treads, because as I didn’t find so small S/S coach bolt, button bolts don’ have square cup, so I have to remove the rubber from the rail, screw each bolt and reinstall rubber, but when you like…
Best regards.
Daniel.
