      These certainly do have a use on freight trucks but not your urban crawler tho. They help identify loose and rotating lugs and give you a little means to know when you’re too close to a curb. Plus as you drive you can shred other people’s tires.

      Edit: these being the silver spikes not the ghetto push on hubcaps

      Those look like they’re far more likely to destroy your rims when they tangle up a branch or bundle of fencing wire on the road than ever do you an ounce of good.
