    If they are applied correctly, and given the specified time to cure, there isnt a problem.
    And the marks left behind if they do come off, easily removed with autoglym tar and adhesive remover

          have to deflate the tyre and take wheel off, for alloygators
          Fitted correctly, doesn't this mean they give further protection?.......

            Not quite sure what you mean:

            Alloygators are more robust and will tolerate a lot, but get marked up
            Rimblades can withstand a light/mid graze along a kerb (When parking for instance)

            What I found with Rimblades, is that if you kerb when parking, stop as soon as poss, as the Rimblade actually protects by peeling away, so if you do a full circle of the wheel (That horrible crunching noise should prevent that) then it would start kerbing the bare alloy . If you get my drift
