The Area wheels on the Model S supposedly added 3% to the range. Not a lot, but not definitely not nothing.The only effect the Aero wheels have is that they cause people to spend $1500 "upgrading" to the 19 inch wheels, so they won't have those fugly Aero wheels on their car.

Basically the advantages would be the same as they are in the S and X.Excluding wheel rim esthetics is there any merits/adantages to the smaller tire as there was in the S or X?
It's not so much aesthetics as is it practicality. They have always been a pain to take off and put back on. Anyone who has had a flat in winter with fender skirts typically enunciates some distinctly non-Disney language, and they don't go back on--ever. Only one car manufacturer that I'm aware of made fender skirts that were easy to re & re regardless of condition. That was Citrõen. They did it by having the entire rear quarter panel being able to be removed (one bolt, two pins).I'm not sure why it's hard for people to understand that the purpose of aero wheels is to improve aerodynamics. Wheels are one of the big aerodynamic disaster zones for vehicles. The best thing you can do is to shroud them with wheel skirts. But most people find that too ugly (I don't), so the next best thing you can do is an aero wheel design.
I can't believe there would be any significant increase. Given the lack of popularity expressed on youtube videos and podcasts, it appears the 19's will be a very popular upgrade.
Why not flat wheel skirts with a picture of a rim painted on them?

Lol B.S.You will not see a range difference with a certain rim. Rims are for looks and the 19's look the best.
I'm not sure I entirely do not understand what you have not not said.The Area wheels on the Model S supposedly added 3% to the range. Not a lot, but not definitely not nothing.
