Probably should do what you think best, regardless of what others think.

you can get any tip you want at adv auto or autzone. They are dirt cheap. If you don't like them, take them off and try something else. If you don't have the $25-$30 to experiment, get some construction paper (steal it from your kid sister or brother) and fashion some mock ups. All you are looking to do is get an idea. It's like before painting your rims, go get electrical tape in the color you are considering and put it on 1 rim.

sometimes we overcomplicate the simplest things in life.

Re: Square tips???

They are 295/50r15s. The wheels their on did not come in the BS I needed to run that wide of a tire but I tried it anyway. As far as the tips go I like them this way better than the long slanted look of the original tips.
