I've seen these, and they look great. However I went with a slightly different wheel decal. When I purchased new tires, and the wheel weights were removed they left rub marks in the polished aluminum. I had a set of decals made which followed the curve of the rim, and covered the damage. They were printed on chrome tape in red, and completely hide the damage!

Do you have a pic of these ? Sounds like a very good idea

Not a decal I would add to mine, but I have seen them on other cars and they look pretty good. If you like it, then go for it.
