You mean those little plastic strips that go between your alloy wheel and tyre?

Alloygators are the ones that I've seen advertised most recently.

Although I just tend to buy tyres that have a rim protector built in.

Ive looked at Alloygators and you have to jack the vehicle up and then deflate/re-inflate the tyre!

Surely there is an easier way?
