If you're looking for input from someone who's done it, 2mm is WAY overkill .
I'm using thinner and taking as much as possible out of the centre-section for the sake of low weight - low weight is good.
I've done some unscientific testing which has involved smashing-'em-with-a-golfclub - it ended in small dinks in the polycarb and a truable wheel which in my eyes isn't too bad. Still a ton tougher than the estate agent alternative.
The scuffs visible in the photo are actually just dirt and muck picked up from our winter pickup court not scratches.
Been letting the wheel-covers ride onto the rim so that it will spread the force through more of the spokes than if it was sat flush to 'said' spokes. I'm sure this helps quite a bit, but is reliant on having either deep rims or no rim-brake on your covered wheel.

Cheers for your input Colin. I may be able to get 0.75mm polycarbonate, which would bring the weight to equal, maybe even slightly lighter, than correx. In your opinion would this stand up to the abuse?
