You'd have thought black would be a better colour than yellow, unless that was only for the film. Also one miss with that hammer and the alloy is kerbed anyway!
Wouldn't you need to have the wheel rebalanced after fitting it?

Shhhhh, don't mention Saxos, passed one wrapped around a tree on road out of Grantown at just after 9 this morning. He'll need more than a bit of T-Cut to fix it!

Surely some with a ball bearing race to enable them to spin independently would also appeal 8)
Seriously though, for the Bimmers Audis etc these would be a good idea to counter the ultra low profile tyres not providing any protection, failing all else of course you could not park your wheel into the kerb in the first place Captain Nick Medhurst would ask:
"What is the first rule when overlanding?"

Plenty of colours to choose from Derek and it looked like a composite or dead blow (shot filled) hammer he's using, so no rim damage.
