Car Hose Guides

Does anybody use these things while washing your car? How do they work? Worth $20 for 4 to not get the hose caught on the wheels?

Thanks in advance for any feedback!

I feel like the total effort i spend avoiding a hose-caught-at-tire situation is less than placing four of these…

Golf balls too. Great way to use those balls that are scuffed so bad you were about to throw them out.

I use them as well and they save a lot of frustration with hoses getting caught.
