Just got my CV3's installed and noticed after the iinstall that the wider tire is throwing up a lot of dirt on the rear bumper. For those of you that have had them on for a while, are you seeing a lot of rock chips etc. Trying to decide if it is worth the cost to install PPF on the bumper to protect it. Going to cost about 350. I dont drive down dirt roads etc but want to get feedback from you guys.

I have 20" Vossen CV5s and I am running a 255/30/20 tire in the rear and my bumper portion at the base of my trunk gets really dirty. I haven't noticed any rock chips or anything. I suggest getting a PPF on the doors where Lexus has theirs (replace it with a film that doesn't get dirt in the edges) and also the front bumper. Right below my spindle grill is where I find chips and also on the side of the car at the side skirt.

Yea i did the whole front of the car in PPF including the rear view mirrors, and replaced the factory PPF as well. If you are only seeing dirt and no chips behind the rear wheels that is good. I will be applying CQuartz Finest next week so that should help reduce the amount of dirt sticking to the rear bumper.
