Car mats don't always have it easy. Especially in fall and winter when it's damper and colder outside, we carry all sorts of filth on the bottom of our shoes.
In extreme cases we step in road salt and bring that into our cars. Carpeted car mats will endure extra wear and tear because of this.
So it's not crazy that a lot of people have worn out car mats. En worn out car mats need to be replaced as quickly as possible.
Worn car mats give the influences of winter a free chance to get all the way through to the floor of your car.
Besides that, they won't look good and give your car a neglected appearance.
Rubber car mats in the winter and carpeted car mats in the summer?
In countries such as Germany or Austria, it's quite reasonable to have rubber car mats in the winter and to put carpeted mats in your car in the summer.
This isn't too crazy considering the harsher winters in these countries. Even though we don't get too much snow in The Netherlands as in Germany or Austria, our fall is no joke.
Sometimes it just falls out of the skies and that leaves our roads full of mud and leaves. This moisture and mud gets tracked into our cars on our shoes.
And it doesn't take a genius to figure out where this filth will end up. Yep, your car mats. The moisture and filth absorb into your car mats.
A little bit of moisture and filth isn't awful for your car mats but over a longer period of time with bad weather, it's better to replace your carpeted car mats with rubber ones.
Especially when there's snow on the way, rubber car mats are better. This is of course because of the road salts being used. This salt gets stuck on your shoes and gets into your car. And the carpeting on your car mats can't handle that all too well.
