Anyone using the hanging style thread in tow hooks, does the actually hook part ever hit the front or rear bumper when the car is in motion. Im afraid that it will just be swinging back and forth knocking into the bumper cover and scratching it up. Hopefully its pushed far enough from the bumpers that it doesnt hit them.

Anyone care to share?


Thanks

Maybe if you get the js racing/style front tow hook that doesn't screw into the stock towhook thread it probably solve your worries. But that's only the front.

Does the front bumper have to come off to put a bolt on tow hook?

Yes to install that js tow hook you need the bumper off. but once its in its in..it just sticks out and ready to go incase you need towing

The tow hooks that fold down and screw into your stock tow hock position will not swing around or hit your bumper. They come with a screw and nut that you tighten to secure the hook in a particular position (up or down). And loosen it to move the hook into a position you want.

Its obvious that people who do tow hook mods have never had their cars towed professionally. They don't even use them.

^ the racing tow hooks aren't for conventional towing purposes. they are used at the race tracks when a car is off-track & trapped in a precarious position relative to where the tow truck can get to the car. agreed though, if you daily drive around with one on the street you're most likely a poser.

Every time my car has been towed they have used it. Adds about 5 minutes to the time as I have to take off my aftermarket bumper.

Incorrect is so many ways.
