Mats for Mats

Anyone else buy these?
They are good quality, but my concern is that the spikes from the Mats for Mats will ruin the underlying carpet floor mats (the point of purchasing these was to protect the carpet floor mats).

Yes good quality. And the spikes will not hurt the mats underneath. They just keep the mat from slidding around to much...

Yah I have them. They don't hurt original mats. Only thing is I had to make holes for the retention clip thingy to prevent them from moving around.

IMO just get the all season mats.

couldn't you just go down to the Home Depot and cut some out of normal plastic floor runners?
the runners are pretty cheap, like 15 bucks for a huge roll...

I bought all season mats at Target for about $40. They are the same ones advertised in Car and Driver for $40 less. They worked very well during the winter. I kept the carpeted mats in and put the all season mats over them. The carpeted mats look brand new. Worked like a charm!
