Ya, I believe that one is plastic on the outside. I got to see it at the dealership.

I am looking for an all cloth one.

I ordered one last week. I'll keep you posted on the quality if you're interested. It should be here soon.

There should be some color match ones, look on some search engines.

Looks good, but it's a little crooked... and you definitely need to get rid of that dealer sticker http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

Here is a supid dilema. I only bought 4 wheels and tires (mainly due to cost) and I figured I would buy this cover, I really like the look. Now, should I get the 32" because that is the factory tire size and just throw it on there and forget it? Or should I buy the 33, because that is what the new tire height it, in case I buy another 33" wheel tire combo for the rear wheel?

Killian, did you get yours yet? Do you like it?

If you're going to get the tire cover just keep the 32" wheel, nobody will notice the difference...

I agree. If it is covered, why spend the money on another tire.

Here is a silly question,what happens if you get a flat tire you would have to use a 32 inch with 3 33 inch tires,doesnt sound good to me.

While if you have a flat on the trail, the 32" tire might be ok to creep back out to civilization, you should not drive without all tires being of the same diameter. You will be stressing the drive train and if something breaks will probably not be covered under warranty because you simply don't run staggered tires on a regular vehicle especially on asphalt or concrete.

It looks pretty good. I ordered one yesterday. And I agree, you gotta get rid of that dealer sticker. That totally makes a vehicle look cheap.

I ordered the 32 as well. I think the bling factor would be too high for the rear wheel...

How do you get rid of the dealer sticker, without messing up the paint?

I would use some bug and tar cleaner to soften it, the start tugging at it...

A blow dryer (or heat gun used carefully) and some goo gone to cleanup any sticker residue.

GooBeGone should take care of that.

Be sure to let the Goo Gone sit for a while to soak it up. Should come off with no problem.

I got my tire cover today. They are fast to ship that is for sure... Is it straight? LOL

I love the look, and for only $90.00 not a bad deal, I don't think...
