Default Pushrod Wraps

This is just a general question about bling for the motorcycle. I saw these pushrod wraps on J and P Cycles and thought they looked cool but to me I can't imagine them staying in one place and not rattling.

My thoughts is they would turn freely around the pushrod and possible scratch the pushrod underneath and be a possible point for a rattle. Has anybody tried them?
