Who makes tough rubber floor mats?
Well, bought Hummer rubber mats for the H3 when I bought the truck. After using them for a year, taking them out 2-3 times to clean them...they break. Man, that's some pretty flimsy rubber.
So who makes tougher thicker ones? And recommendations?
Thanks

Hmmm, that's odd, have had mine over 2 years and they're still holding up great, maybe it was a defect?

X2  I scrubbed them down countless times.I was saying to my wife the other day how mats never hold up this well.
Maybe that upstate salt in the winter got to them.

Re: Who makes tough rubber floor mats?
I've never seen them do that either...where did you buy them? If you bought them as part of the car deal, I'd see if your dealer would exchange 'em..

Doubt it's the salt, mine have gone through two Canadian winter's.
This definitely looks like a defect on his set, or that one piece in general. They're mold injected so it's completely possible that the part that ripped was thinner than normal.
Like Hummer Guy stated, if you got it as part of the vehicle or from a dealer, they should definitely replace it free of charge. That's far too soon for it to start ripping. |

Re: Who makes tough rubber floor mats?
Thanks all. Yes bought them from dealer with the original H3 purchase. I'll see what they say. Husky's look nice. So if I dont get a replacement from dealer, might go for them.

Re: Who makes tough rubber floor mats?
Husky is the way to go,  almost ten years in my Jeep and no problems, my wife has had them in her cars also. Great for snow and water! They really protect the carpet. |

Weathertech, molded to fit the footwell, I did have to put some velcro on the door panel to hold the lip down under the door when shut.
