Product Description
Chevrolet Suburban 2015-2020 Stainless Wheel Well Accent Trim WQ55198, 4 Pieces, 1.5" Wide
For the 2015-2020 Chevrolet Suburban 4-door SUV, WQ55198 is a four-piece Wheel Well Accent Trim set in polished stainless steel. Every piece measures 1.5" wide, and QAA's listing calls the set "With 3M adhesive installation and black rubber gasket edging".
Fitment
Chevrolet Suburban 4-door, 2015-2020. If your Suburban falls outside those years, call 877-752-3811.
Four pieces, 1.5"
One 1.5" band per opening by count, each edged with black rubber gasket. The record doesn't name corners, so use the photos.
Material
The Suburban's four pieces are polished 26 gauge 304 stainless, made in the USA, applied over the existing finish with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. According to QAA, the tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the SUV.
Linked Suburban parts
- TH55198: a four-piece Upper Kit rocker at 6.375", spanning from the bottom of the molding down.
- MI55198: a four-piece body molding insert kit, 1".
- RR55198: six-piece roof rack trim that adheres to the existing factory stainless roof rack trim; the listing says you must have that factory trim to use it.
The wheel well record doesn't mention a rocker cut. Whether these arches sit as the photos show next to TH55198 is a question for 877-752-3811.
Before ordering
Check the year, and look at the photos for the 1.5" band against your Suburban's arches.
Preparing a large SUV
The Suburban's arches are tall, so a step stool helps for the top of each band. Clean each opening in turn: rinse out the lip, wash with shampoo and a soft mitt, rinse, dry and let it drain. Look over the whole 1.5" band with a lamp for wax, adhesive and chips, and remove each. Wax-and-grease remover goes on next; isopropyl alcohol goes on last, right before the piece.
Fitting
- Label the four Suburban liners by corner from the photos.
- Tape the first piece up with its liner on. Check the gasket meets the opening along the whole arch.
- Peel a short length at the lower front end and press.
- Continue in short steps over the top of the arch and down to the far end.
- Press it all once more before the next piece.
Arrival and care
Confirm the four Suburban pieces are all there. Let the tape go a day before washing, and after that use mild soap and a soft cloth with the pressure washer kept off the gasket.
The roof rack trim condition
RR55198 adheres to the existing factory stainless roof rack trim, and the listing is clear that you must have that factory trim to use it; the listing also mentions a seam cap piece. Look at your roof before putting it in the order. TH55198 spans down from the bottom of the molding to 6.375", and MI55198 is a 1" insert for the body molding, so both depend on the molding on your Suburban. If you're unsure about any of the three for your SUV, call 877-752-3811 with SKU WQ55198 and UPC 691821350902.

Installation tips: Wheel Well Accent Trim
- Unpack all 4 pieces and match each one to its position on the vehicle, using the product photos, before fitting any of them.
- Each piece mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, so clean and dry the mounting surface first; the tape needs paint or trim free of dirt and wax.
- Align the piece and press it firmly into place directly over the existing surface, working along its full length so the tape bonds evenly.
- Seat the black rubber gasket edging evenly along the wheel opening as you press the trim on.
- Fit one piece at a time and compare each with the product photos and the pieces already in place.
These are general tips. Follow any instructions packed with your kit if they differ.
