Aero Covers For 19" Sport Wheels

[Hank101]

Is there such a thing?

Why

Why

Range. Duh.

 

[kpeng]

If you're so concerned over range, get 17" wheels.

The only 19" wheels I know that were built for range, other than Tesla OEM wheels are these:

Tesla does sell the 19” Gemini Wheel with aero covers as part of this winter tire package (sold out right now):
Model 3 19” Gemini Wheel and Winter Tire Package

But I thought OP is looking for aero covers for the 19" Sport Wheels that are already on his LR RWD, and there's no such a thing (yet).

If I were still running my OEM sport wheels and there was such a thing, I'd consider buying it and only use for roadtrips. If someone developed some, I'm sure there would be a market for it.

Can't tell if this is a genuine recommendation or if you're being a snot.

It doesn't help with the OP, but these after market Aero-Wheels for the 18" wheels looks pretty kick ass:

I had not seen/heard about this, so thanks!

It's been about a year lol but I was wondering if there is such a thing. Like a retrofit for 19" aero caps for the 19" Sport Wheels that would help it out, and take them off whenever similar to the 18"

Anyone heard of something similar? Thank you!

Just bought a 2022 Model 3 and I'm getter at about 310 miles of range instead of 358. I have the 19 inch sport wheels. I'd like to sell these wheels if I can and get whatever wheel has the longest range. Is that a 17 inch wheel with an aero cover? Also, how easy would it be for me to sell my 19 inch sport wheels?

i am in the market for something like this as well.

why don't you trade your 19" sport for 18" with aero wheels. I can gaurantee that you'll find it easy to find someone to trade with.

Any update on covers for 2019 model 3 wheels 19 inch sport? I only ever see covers for the newer model wheels.

Sorry, no. But where do you see covers for newer M3 19” wheels? Inquiring minds want to know. I can’t find any myself, or do you mean the MY 19” aero wheels?

Here's what i found about the 19" wheel cap. Personally I think the 19" sport wheel (V1) or even the v2 doesn't look to bad. Although maybe the wheel cap can increase your range a bit.

On the RWD the switch from 18 aero to 19 sport is rated at -5 miles range. Not much. I am getting good range with the sports.

Thank you! I was hoping for something more aero, but at least there is something out there. I also just noticed that they redesigned the 19” wheels to be more aero (presumably), which I think is great. Yes, the older ones looked better to me, but I am looking for a decent compromise between looks and efficiency. Weirdly I have found no comparisons of the efficiency of the old and new 19” M3 wheels.
