Michelin EdgeLiner Material Matters
Michelin EdgeLiner knows you can’t build a great product without great material. That’s why we use Thermoplastic Elastomer—or TPE. TPE acts and feels more like rubber than plastic, and its performance proves its worth. It is heavier than other commonly used resins, more flexible, and it allows us to build massive 17 mm channels more than 3 times deeper than other liners. Our injection molding process gives us the ability to build structural pieces that support higher walls and better shape retention over time, making a liner with greater overall durability.
The other custom floor liners on the market are made from a material that is rigid and stiff. Imagine a stiff sheet of plastic that is heated and formed over a mold of your vehicle's floor. This is the standard for other companies, but it has limitations. The material gets thin when heated, and it loses its shape over time. It also can only be formed to make a channel about 5 mm deep, and the walls warp if they go too high.
Our goal is to combine functionality, appearance, and practicality in one liner.

Thanks, Lary! I just checked your thread. They definitely look good in your truck. I went to their website and they didn't list options for a full package or rear only, just for the fronts for the 2010s. Didn't look at other years.

RAM Mega Cab
We have a full set of liners for the Mega Cab 2006-2009. Unfortunately we only have front liners for the 2010-2016 Mega since the rear floor pan is slightly different.

I have Weathertech rubber mats which work well but do not entirely protect the floor.
I've always shied away from the current liners out there because of the stiff, almost brittle feel of them.
Are these mats available to see in San Diego?
Watching the Husky Liner videos I can see they are stiff material.

When I installed mine it was 10 degrees and snowing, the liners had been stored in a unheated shed for days. They were remarkably pliable coming straight from the box, I expected they would need to warm up to lay flat but that simply was not the case.
Weeks later I am still quite happy with fitment and appearance, and they have kept the snow and mud off my floors....
