What are the best rubber floor mats?

Post by meinmi »

I've had my Weather Tech floor mats for over two years and am well pleased with them. However after over 100,000 miles, most of them wearing heavy boots, the spot under my right heel is almost worn through. I will be pleased to buy another set of the Weather Tech's but would like your collective opinion on what you have all had success with.
Thanks

We have the GM Accessories rubber floor mats in both our 2009 Vibe GTs. Since they have been discontinued though, if I were to get another 2009-2010 Vibe someday (and for whatever reason not be able to use the GM mats anymore), I would more than likely go with WeatherTech mats.

I use the Husky Digital. They are not rubber but are plastic and form fitted to the car. They work okay and keep the carpet dry.

Thanks for the great help; I'm going to try the Husky Liners to see how I like that type of floor covering.

I have Lloyd's Rubbertite mats and like them - mostly for the way they look. But they won't hold as much water or a spill like the Husky or WeatherTech ones. And, they don't stay in place as well. I'll post a link to my pics.
