Do not waste your money
I have a full email trail of all correspondence with Rimskins if needed.
1. I purchased a set for my brand new vehicle.
2. Read the instructions, bought the acetone and carefully cleaned the rims and applied the Rimskins
3. Three went on OK, the 4th would not stick at all. Not even close to sticking so I took them all off.
4. I emailed Rimskins and awaited a reply. Their reply was "what kind of acetone did you use?" I sent an image of the product.
5. No response until I sent a follow up
6. Their response was - "Please return to our POB" (I cop...

Customer Service Nil
I bought Rimskins for my car. Confirmed the model of my Car and ordered them. Unfortunately my msg wheels do not allow for rimskins to fit so requested a refund as the pack were unopened. Just got the usual “check our website for returns - they do not refund @ if they do cause of a manufacturing fault they charge 20% restocking fee. Would not deal with this company again and certainly would not recommend.
Purchased in May 2021 for $50.
Skin sticks very well as long as you follow instruction :)
So many reviews saying the skin comes off - well not for me after I've had it for a few months now.
You just gotta follow the instruction! Get yourself some acetone from bunnings and clean your rim before application. I've gone through multiple car washes including high-pressure water and had absolutely no problem.
Great work guys! (Are you planning to make green ones by any chance? let me know)

Rimskins
terrible products and terrible seller (rimskins)... they don't back up their products at all ... save yourself money and buy the $8.99 online and works much better.... you need plastic not rubber as rubber is too soft
Purchased in December 2020 for $56.95.

Warranty means nothing!
Bought heaps of skins from them. Rim skin didn’t last long for a number of occasions. I asked them to send one under warranty. No response just completely ignored. Never buy from them ever.
Purchased in June 2020 for $60.
Cho we have never received a claim from you, and always default in our customers favour, as Im sure many will attest too. And we have never charged $60 ever! this looks bogus!
Have a look at invoice number 3639. 21” wheel requires extra. Also have a look at order no 6300 made on 16th of June. I can sen you all the information if you give me your email address. I sent reques...
Read morets to orders@rimskins.com.au on 16th of July and 26th of July. Don’t make an excuse for faulty installation as I have been using your product for a long time. I know how to installed it properly.- 2 reviews

Simple cheap effective
Easy to fit and covered unsightly damage at a fraction of the cost of a professional repair. You must follow the instructions, particularly the heat advice. I'm very pleased with the outcome.
Purchased in July 2020 at eBay for $56.99.

Thought they were good, until I actually needed them
Bought these for my mini cooper after getting the wheels refurbished. Thought they looked good, they stuck well - after through prep cleaning. So decided to use them for my new Subaru Levorg. Just come back from the McDonald's drive through where I clipped the curb at 2km/h (stop-start drive through speeds). First time I've actually needed them to their their job and they failed miserably. As other's have noticed, they just peel off, and the wheel still gets damaged. Waste of money.
Perfect product
Am on my 2nd set now, as they were removed fitting new tyres. I really dont know how some people say this is a bad product! This is an awesome product! Just follow the instructions, easy as...
Had my first set on for 45000kms, never came loose whatsoever, sticks perfectly and yes they do protect your rims. Obviously if you're gonna hit a curb at 30km/hr it wont. Hit a curb a few times when parking, protected the rim and didnt even came off...
This is a great product!
Purchased at Rimskins for $55.
Thanks Mario
Less than 1% of our sales is a problem and most of them fail to follow the instructions, it's just a very loud 1%. We are very proud of our "little wonder product" and love hearing from our customers.

Absolute Trash Product and "Company"
I just wanted to let you all know to stay clear, do not waste your money. Read all the other review and you will see for yourself! Here is why. Basically they don't stick. I purchased the Acetone and prepped the wheels for hours like the Nicholas said, followed ALL INSTRUCTIONS, and within 2 days they fell off. Absolutely let down after wasting so much money on what coasts about a dollar to make. I have not been offered a refund or a replacement.
Purchased for $60.
Claims he purchased from Autobahn, we gave free replacements even though he did NOT follow the instructions and made all sorts of threats and had no receipt. Now he wants a second set and outright lies about our service!!!! RimSkins
Your just pathetic, all your business can respond is us customers do not follow instructions when you know thats just a sad reason to cover up your piece of junk product. Stop treating people like idi...
Read moreots and I suggest throw your product in the bin as thats it deservesClearly don't like it when your bullying doesn't work Sean, are you still denying we gave you free product and help on how to clean them properly ?? If you don't have a receipt, you can't make a claim.

Great Product
I must admit I was somewhat dubious about the quality of adhesion of this product, after reading some less than positive reviews.
That said, the ‘KEY’ is making sure your rims are crystal clean, and the product works well and as described.
I made the mistake of not filing/grinding back deep gutter rash on one wheel and paid the price of having to purchase another (single) strip to correct my error.
All in all, the product is excellent.
I have had several enquiries as to how and where I purchased this great product.
I was at a loss when I was told it would cost me over $120 per wheel to repair.
Until I found Rimskins!

Don't Bother
One word "PATHETIC". A total nightmare to deal with. Never again after being promised to receive a refund after sending back their faulty product. Surely customers are their after thought.

Works well !
Works well take a bit of time to prep the wheels but once done, they're pretty solid. I think it's better to clean and prep the wheels on a hot day to ensure that there are no water residue left behind to ensure the 3M bond properly.
One of them got loose (my mistake the first time) and was smacking against the body work, lucky the material quite soft & flexible so there were no damages to the body work.
I've tried using eBay version prior however the tape provided was subpar and would completely peel off in a week.
The most annoying part maybe leftover glue residue ? Maybe Rimskins can include a removal wipe as well that would be awesome !
Complete garbage
Don't waste your money on these pieces of crap they stick and look good for about a week then they lose their stick where they join and start falling off they also pull the clear coat off your rims and when you contact them about it they try and blame your rims and don't accept any responsibility and are very rude to deal with
don't stick, but pull off the clear coat? Really!!!
Questions & Answers
Hi there Rimskins
I have purchased a couple of sets of your grey rimskins, one for my car and another as a gift.
I have been very happy with mine and they have saved me a couple of times for sure.
I am however having troubles with them all starting to come unstuck on all my wheels, not just the ones where they were knocked.
I read in some of your replies regarding this issue that you would fit them properly if we came in?
I'm happy to buy another set but would really appreciate help installing them properly so I'm wondering if this is possible in Sydney NSW?
Please let me know asap
Cheers
