Don't waste money!

Once I figured out how to route the cable inside the lid, the installation went great. I checked them several times to make sure they were "fixed" to my tire. One came off on the way home the next day. Because they're flimsy plastic, one got scratched when I put it in the driveway and I'm pretty sure it broke when it came loose. They stayed about 50 miles. They look nice, but if you really want to drive, don't waste your money.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Ok

If you love the look of these hubcaps GET IT.

I bought Honda Accord mallets for work/winter for a friend. He likes her. They definitely look better than without, just with the black border. Be sure to secure them with cable ties as much as possible. We secured them with black zip ties and yet one flew away, luckily it rolled in front of his car and he could see it and stopped to pick it up, now he's going to secure it with a few more zip ties.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Volume

Buy multiple sets: Accessories & Parts

Well those look super cool but we had to buy three sets for the same car. They are easy to put on - we find them too easy as they keep falling off. We managed to find one by following the route. So lucky, yes. So we ordered three sets because 1) the quality is not very good and in each set at least one is cracked or broken; 2) these things fly away like a frisbee. I feel sorry for everyone who suffered from any of them. Today we lost two!

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Speed

Fragile like cardboard! Low quality. Too thin and flexible.

These caps are made of inferior, brittle, flexible plastic that breaks and bends too easily. When I opened the box one of the tabs was already broken and the lid came off so easily it couldn't stay on the wheel and didn't come off when I tapped it. The lids are painted black, the paint is very thin and peels off at the edges as soon as you unpack it. I do not recommend these cases for money. They have to be hard plastic like the originals to stay in place.

Pros
  • An Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Protection

It cracked as I carefully attached the locking ring.

I was hoping for it, but unfortunately wasted money. First, they came with a circlip that had no shoulder for the valve stem (so if left that way, they wouldn't fit at all - the valve stem was completely blocked). I had to create an offset using two pairs of pliers and some careful measurements. I will insert an image. When I carefully attached the snap ring, the plastic just broke near the valve stem cutout. The cover was never on the car. I will insert an image. I've never had the opportunity

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Not fashionable

Fits 2015 Sentra. Amazing

Firstly they fit the 2015 Nissan Sentra. Another buyer said no, but I ordered them anyway. I had to use the tighter/smaller setting and they fit like a glove. Just make sure your car tire says "R16” next to the numbers. I'm not a big car enthusiast, I don't know much about cars and it was a pretty easy install, just make sure the plastic parts don't flip back when you put the hubcap in the wheel, you'll see what I mean. . You look great. When I tell people they cost me $55 they always say…

Pros
  • Best in their niche
Cons
  • I will add later
