Floor Mats

[itschris]

The premium floor Matt set leaves much to be desired. No wonder they tossed it in as part of the deal. If you're considering this option... Don't. They really no better than the stock give away set. They're only 20oz carpet mats. Most high end Matt's are 32 or more.

 

That being said, has anyone gotten custom heavy carpeted Matt's they really like?. I'm thinking about a set of Lloyd's Matt's through auto anything, but would like to hear about others.

I bought the Ford mats after-market and sent them back. Then bought the Lloyd's from AA, wish I'd sent them back too.

I was going to go with the Lux version, but maybe no now. They're even more expensive. I'll spend $150 or so, if they're worth it, but like you, I'm sick of spending money on "the good stuff" only to be disappointed.

 

If anyone has a great source, please post it up. Thanks guys.

Since my driveway is gravel I take the factory mats and put them in the trunk and use either Husky or Weathertech. So much easier to clean up, getting that fine grit out of the carpet is a royal pain.

[acdii]

In case your wondering, these are what the Husky look like

[corncobs]

I 100% agree with the ease of cleanability; took me only 10 min to clean up my sons mess after a 5000 mile road trip; I can't imagine the time I would have spend cleaning the carpet from all the crumbs

[acdii]

Tell me about it, I dont have them for the Flex yet, a set is well over $200 for all 3 rows. I have to clean it today before the grit works too deep. The made a huge difference in our 10 FFH, I pull them out and the carpet is pristine, but since I dont have them on the back, but the OEM all weathers, I had some clean up to do from the little mud pits.

I thought out the weather tech style, but for my needs, I'm just looking for the really heavy duty super plush carpeted ones.

Let us know if you find something great.

Neither the premium nor the all-weather are worth the money to me, due to the under-sized mat for the driver's area, as shown below. Look at the much better coverage in the pic that Acdii posted above, those are the better buy hands-down if you ask me.

I think I'm going to seriously consider these. They look like really nice matts....54oz carpet... The plushest I've seen yet. Good reviews. I guess I'll be the forum guinea pig. I'm gonna look just a bit more before I pull the trigger.

These do look worthy! Does anyone suppose we could leverage a group order for something of a volume discount (maybe 10 people?)?

[itschris]

I'll look into that. Can't hurt to give them a call. Stand by for results.

[itschris]

Well good news... I just spoke with the guys at AutoSport and they'd be interested in trying to work out a deal for a group buy on their Super Plush matts. Is there an Admin or someone with someone with some type of authority I can put them in contact with? We probably need at least 20 members to go for a deal so it would be more of a site campaign rather than just me saying "hey... buy some matts" not to mention that I'm not keen on overstepping my bounds here.

I purchased a custom made set of Luxury Berber mats that I love. Had same thing

on the 2010 FFH. Black is the color you want if you have a Titanium,

but you can request samples. I switch to the Husky or WeatherTech when

the weather gets bad. But these cover up the "under petal area" fully.

Won't get any heavier duty carpet than these.

 

European Style Luxury Berber
(42 oz. Woven Nylon Yarn)
Price: $139.95

Takes about 10 days and fit perfect.

I wish I could switch, but having a gravel drive makes it a year round mess for me.

The ones I'm looking at and trying toget a group buy on are 52oz carpeting. I had Berber in my Audi and they were a bitch to clean, though black woudn't be such a problem. It's just personal liking, but I gravitate toward the more plush style matts. I drive about 45 miles round trip, and it actually makes a different having a really deep soft foundation for your feet.

 

BTW - Admins? Someone with clout and authority?

Looks like these are the mats:

Yep, those are the ones. I sent the admins an email to hopefully work out a group buy for us.

OK, thanks! Just ordered the medium grey for my black interior. Can't wait. I have looked everywhere locally and nothing comes close.

I clean car mats with some stuff I get at Home Depot. It's a degreaser, and absolutely takes out anything from mats or carpet. I scrub them on the driveway, after getting them wet, then rinse thoroughly after scrubbing with a stiff brush. It even removes dried road tar that is smeared in deeply. It's called Greased Lightening and comes in a yellow 32 oz spray bottle.

[bcrisp]

Excellent. Thanks for your diligence, Chris. I'm holding off my order until we have something resolved within this group. I don't even have my car delivered yet but it'll be soon.

In case your wondering, these are what the Husky look like

What did you end up doing with your Husky mats? I hope you kept them since you're getting a HyTi now!

 

Also, my parents have those same rubber floor tiles at their house in parts of the basement to make the concrete floor easier to stand on. They're pretty neat!

Yep, still have them, which made it even easier to decide on the car. Hey already have the floor mats for it! :)

 

I have those tiles and also the dark gray ones that cover 2/3rds of my workshop. When the basement flooded, they were floating.
