    Orbital Wheel Covers

    wondering if you've taken the covers off to see if this worked to prevent scratches to the rims? i reached out to Rimetrix and should be getting a tracking number for my orbitals within a week. i plan on going this route to try to prevent scratches.

    Has anyone driven with these enough to comment on the efficiency? are these comparable to the standard aero covers?

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    i doubt that it will hold up your order, however i also doubt that you will want to go with Tesla for the trade in (unless you are trading in a Tesla). Tesla give really low ball offers for trades.
