Are there any companies making wheel covers for the newer 19 wheels? I see a bunch for the 3 and Y, but haven’t found any for the S. I really like some of Rimetrix’s designs but they don’t make a model S cover. Feel like something should be out there.

Aftermarket wheel covers for Model S?

I found this on Hansshow. Anyone try these yet? I like the turbine style ones from Rimetrix. I wish they would made S/X covers. I guess it's just too low volume to justify.

I have them. They look nice and don't seem to affect range. One issue, install the felt around the outside of the wheel. Otherwise, they will scrape the lip of the factory rim. Also, ebay has them on sale often if you find them and add them to you watch list. Got them for a $100. Those however didn't come with the T emblems in the center. Had to pay extra for those. $110 total.
I bought the wheel covers here: Motenio Wheel Covers
And the “T” emblem here: Motenio “T” Wheel Emblem
Since the covers are held on by clips and not the circumference your statement might not be for true for all covers, though it appears to be true for this Motenio cover. The reason is because the shape of the spokes are not exactly the same for both S and Y wheels, so depending on where the clips engage they may or may work for both model's wheels.
Thanks for the pics and the links. It gave me an idea. I bought the covers and the T logos and some bronze plastidip. Im going to plastidip the covers when I get them, see how they look on my ultra red car. If the color doesn’t look good, should be easy enough to remove back to the black color.
Will post some pics when I do it.

Nice. I just bought the covers as well. Never thought about bronze on the Ultra Red, should be interesting!
I got the wheel covers in today, and the plastidip. But unfortunately, didn’t get the centercaps, which will come tomorrow.
I tried one out on the car to see how it looks. It looks great, IMHO. Showed my wife who said I should leave it black, since it matches the trim, and that the bronze color will not look good.
So now I don’t know what to do. Leave it black or paint it bronze?
Edit: Sent pic to daughter, who also said leave it black. Damn.

Nice! Possible to take a photo even more angled? I'm specifically curious how far the center dome protrudes.
Thanks. Well, what a great option from Motenio. I think there are a number of customers who would like an alternative to the Tempest covers. I have an MSP coming with 19's that I'll probably upgrade to aftermarket wheels at some point, but for these coming winter months this option intrigues me, especially at $110. Would love to see a few full-car views whenever you get the chance.
For $110 a set you can probably have both and change them everyday!

You could always try it on one side of the car. That way you can compare black versus bronze. I say try it, you can always peel it off.
