Aero wheels

[Eno Deb]

This is what I use as well...works great.

Confirmed. I use a similar suction cup and it's very easy to pull out the caps. They are normally meant to lift display glass off of computer monitors and the like. They suck pretty hard (in a good way).

I tried them on and off for a significant number of miles. I get the same approximately 282 wh/mi. I drive usually 75-80 on the highway. Does this seem right? Wondering why I don't get any efficiency improvement with the aeros...

I brought my caps to the delivery center so you know my vote.

You guys who all buy a car from the future and want wheels that look like the past...and cost you 5% more driving energy to do it...I don't get it but I guess people do what people do...in the future, al cars will be electric...and all will have aero wheels....isn't it up to us to pave the way?

hubcaps have been around forever and I still don't like them, wheel covers are pretty much the same thing.

That must be one amazingly powerful suction cup. Is there a video of someone doing this?


An eyeglass screwdriver is a very thin piece of metal. Doesn't that scratch or dent the center caps?

I use this suction cup, and it works great getting the center cap out.

The suction option works great. Just used this to put my aeros back on for winter. No problems at all getting them off.

I prefer the Aeros off.
I dipped my original 18" wheels silver, which matches the Silver M3 much better than stock color (see Post #44 above):

What are you guys doing with aero wheels? Taking them off or keeping them on? Please let me know.

took them off yesterday. Installed wheel locks and center hub upgrade. Looks much better.

I had them off for a couple of months (with the lug nut and center covers on) but then decided I liked it better with them on. They've been on ever since.
