Yeah they work just fine, get the smaller ones if you don't like them that much. It's slightly noticeable but practicality and safety is probably a bigger problem.

They don't "throw off the car" at all IMHO. There are many sizes and styes to chose from. I have small, round, adjustable blind-spot mirrors placed in the closest lower corner, on all my cars. No matter which size you decide is right for your car (after all, it does boil down to personal taste), they all work very well at eliminating blind spots.

How do you guys have blind spots? Our mirrors are HUGE...(come on its not like you use them anyways, everything should be so far behind you that you can just look in your rear view mirror)

^ i agree. you must have your side mirrors in toward your car. a car on either side (lane) of you should approach in your rear view, then fall into position in your side mirrors. then as they start to pass you, the front of the car will be in your periphery. today with some of these giant cars, i can see them in my side/s and my periphery! it's the honda fit that i can't seem to tune my mirrors to.
look up droptopgal's pics, she has the circle mirrors on her new car.

Adjust your side mirror outwards on both sides so that your mirrors cover your usual blind spot. You will then have a blind spot in the area about 1-2 feet just right next to your car body but if a car is that close to you, it's probably too late to avoid.
