    Default ::.. 15" Wheel Covers

    Any suggestions for some 15" wheel covers for winters? I'm pretty sure that the dealer would charge and arm and a leg for OEM ones.

    I find that most of the ones out there are just plain ugly or too ... erm ... tuner (read: bling).

    This is the only decent one I could find... $17 CAD each:

    Do you put those covers over your alloys?

    Is this to try to stop the alloys corroding ? Have never seen anybody do that before.

    BavAuto has some Bottlecap-looking covers, but the price is a bit too high. 37 for one ...

    Make your 15" wheels look like 17s!
