Sound insulation on wheel arch cover to reduce tyre noise

[nostraduckus]

Saw this on AliExpress, anyone tried it, or have any thoughts? No reviews on that product for the MG4, but it appears to be the same product as this which has lots of positive comments (also cheaper). My only reservation would be installing it on the exterior.

Thought's......

Zero pictures showing it correctly installed.
(Edit Scroll down to see how its fitted)
Why?
Because it's a bugger to fit no doubt.

I also think that won't stay in situ for more than about 5 minutes. (Maybe it will?)

It's a bit pricier, but a set of Michelins will make your car noticeably quieter.

I cannot comment on any others makes.

If you go for it I'd be interested to see how you get on.

I tried to get behind my x power wheel arch the other day. Its solid plastic with no give . So the 4 screw bolts swiftly went back in. Ive seen the ali express advert but wont be trying it personally.

Oh I see, that's supposed to sit on top of the liner?
I thought they were suggesting it was just fitted onto the exterior of the wheel liner.

Yeah i'm definitely considering some new rubber. Still interested in the Hankook Ion EVO but the summer tyre is not available in Australia yet.

Had a quick look now, there seems to be a few more bolts with trim covers. But there's also a massive gap around the spring so I imagine a lot of the vibration would just travel through there to the firewall anyway.

Had a quick look and noted the following is stated just in case anyone is thinking about buying.

"2Pcs x Car Sound Deadening Mat (2pcs is just fit for 1 wheel, if you need 4 wheel, recommend you place 8pcs)"
