The new 19" Gemini wheels that are standard on the Y: are they alloy wheels or plastic wheel covers on steel wheels?
Gemini wheels without covers:I have a Model Y on order and I think those Gemini wheels are ugly as sin. Here is hoping they look better with the plastic covers removed.
These are not the Gemini wheels. Here is a video that shows them in detail with and without covers (and yes with covers they are not very pretty IMHO).Gemini wheels without covers:
@MorrisonHiker has Chinese market 19” Power Sport wheels not the 19” Gemini, but it looks like the aero cover is the same between the two.Plastic covers on flow-formed alloy wheels. None of the OEM Tesla wheels are steel.

Those solid-spoke wheels are the ones included in the Model 3 Performance winter tire package and are the same as the "Power Sport" wheels on the Chinese Model 3 Performance. Per the Tesla online shop: "This package is only compatible with the Dual Motor All-Wheel Drive (Performance) Model 3 configured with 20" Performance Wheel." I haven't seen it confirmed, but they're likely ET35, instead of the ET40 offset for the 19" Sport wheels.These are not the Gemini wheels.

So it looks like the standard Y wheels are the unattractive ones Zoomit showed in his pics above.Those solid-spoke wheels are the ones included in the Model 3 Performance winter tire package and are the same as the "Power Sport" wheels on the Chinese Model 3 Performance. Per the Tesla online shop: "This package is only compatible with the Dual Motor All-Wheel Drive (Performance) Model 3 configured with 20" Performance Wheel." I haven't seen it confirmed, but they're likely ET35, instead of the ET40 offset for the 19" Sport wheels.
The Model Y 19" Gemini wheels, the ones with twin spokes (aka...Gemini...get it?), will likely have an ET40 offset. So I expect the Gemini covers are the same, but the skeleton wheels have different offsets to be compatible with either the standard rotors on both the 3 and Y or the performance upgrade rotors on both the 3 and Y. At least that's my speculation at this point.
I really want to like them (I'm a fan of the 18" Aeros), but neither the cover nor the wheel below for the Gemini does it for me at all. Really doesn't suit the Y, especially with the blacked out trim all over.
Agree that black wheels look better, but my problem is that I hate, hate all black wheels.
It does indeed appear that the 19" Gemini (solid-spoke) wheels available now from Tesla are ET35, per this post: 21" Wheels now on Performance PackageThose solid-spoke wheels are the ones included in the Model 3 Performance winter tire package and are the same as the "Power Sport" wheels on the Chinese Model 3 Performance.
