I normally only use my Aerowheels for long trips, to get better mileage. But found an issue with them, there are 10 metal clips per hubcap and several of mine just fell out, others seemed to have unclipped but were still in place. Look at your Aerowheels before installing them to ensure these clips are in correctly, if not they feel harder to attach to the wheel and will scratch them. I think this was a poor design on Tesla's part. I'll probably keep them off for good after this trip.
 
And to top it off I curbed my rear passenger rim while on my trip. I have never ever, curbed a wheel before, figures it would have to be my Tesla. Luckily it's not too bad, I can sand it down and touch it up, but it still hurts.
