Orbital Wheel Covers

[Destiny1701]

Yes they do. Actually, IMO, they look better on the silver orbitals, because the Tesla logo is silver

Thank you I’ll repost with window tint after today, TESLA matter black decals on rear to replace the chrome T, and then red calipers next. Never thought I’d like black rims but without chrome trim, it no longer makes sense for silver’ish rims in my view.

Chrome trim…go silver rim.
Matte Black trim…go matte black rim.
Or else too many colours happening in my view.

I’m sure others appreciate contrast…whatever works

Ok here’s the final with red calipers, spoiler, tint, black decals

Where did you get your black badging?

Where did you get your black badging?

Online. T symbol Carbone Prestige I believe.
The dual motor badge in matte black from Amazon.

One could in theory remove the chrome , spray it satin black and RE apply.

Here's two pics of the Orbital cover with the red Tesla logo as the center cap, just in case if you wondered how that looks like.

Where did you get the red caps? And what % tint do you have by chance?

So nice!!! I saw you said you have 20% tint all the way around. Did you tint the front windshield at all?

I got my red decals that I placed over the orbital wheel cover caps here: TESLA 3d car wheel center cap emblems stickers decals :: Red logo/Black background :: ― Online shop 3D wheel center caps

For the tint, I have it all 30% all around.

What mm size did you order thanks!

 

[Destiny1701]

They are expensive things for us Canadians , with shipping and duties I paid $450 Canadian ($366 US).

What I like about them is they will be very rare here, I haven't seen a single Tesla anywhere with these covers. It's 90% the stock aero covers, and 10% the alloy rims underneath. So I will stand out haha

Sorry to bust that party brother lol.

I really like the Tesla turbines, but I'd rather have 18's. All of which makes me like the silver orbitals. Thanks for posting the pix

WOW! Those look great! About 10,000 times better than these Orbital wheel covers. They look like factory Turbines while these covers look like Walmart specials in comparison. If I had to order a Tesla now, I would just get 18" wheels with those covers instead of the 19's.

They look great and cover the whole rim. My only dislike is that the design is not bidirectional or 2L+2R directional. but that is just my selective OCD.

I was thinking the exact same thing. That would drive me crazy. At least with the orbitals it doesn't matter.

I was checking out the reviews, all 23 reviews are all gibberish. I wonder if this product even exit. Picture looks nice though.

I find with the black orbitals its super important to keep your tires black. The covers look a bit weird when the tire is a dull black/dirty.

I keep a few bottles of blackening spray in my garage. Every week I wipe them down with rich glossy black spray. Looks so much sexier.

Are 2021/2022 18" wheel the same as previous 18"?

Are 2021/2022 18" wheel the same as previous 18"?

Regarding the Tesla OEM 18" wheels and their cover:
minimal difference, aero cover of one is not compatible with the other, there's is also slight design change to it, a tiny bit more squared appearance and it is more aero efficient by a little bit. Lastly, they are ever so slightly less prone to bend or break from road hazard and if I recall correctly, they weight a tiny bit more.

All very minor
