I like the efficiency of the 18s more and the look of the 19s more

US Aero looks better IMO. Silver plastic covers always look cheap (like wannabe alloy) to me.

Well It's official.

Those aero's in China have a small turbine look to them.

AND now.....with the caps off.

I think the Chinese Aeros look more like typical normal hubcaps. US Aeros look more uniquely “aero” in my opinion. I didn’t like the US Aeros initially, but they’ve since grown on me a lot.

Aside, do the fewer gaps on the US mean better aerodynamics than the Chinese? And I’ve also come to realize that the more directional the rims are, the more it bothers me that the two wheels on the opposite side are facing the “wrong” way...

Eewww is what comes to mind with the aero caps off the Chinese 19. Yikes. Looks like something from discount tire direct.The Chinese win in the Aero to aero comparison though.

I just guessed US.

Covers on = 19" China wheels

Covers off = 18" Wheels

I like the Chinese Aeros. I will try to take one wheel back every time I come back to the US. Just need to find a way to order them.

I like the US ones better. The Chinese ones look like food processor parts.
