Refresh Model X LR Best Rim protectors?

[antneed]

Due for delivery of my 2024 long range Model X towards the end of the month, just wondering what are you all using rim protectors ?

Thanks

Even with rim protectors, if you go to battle with a curb, the curb is going to win and probably take out your rim protectors and make a lasting impression on your wheels.

Agreed. The best curb rash defense is heads up driving and being aware of where your wheels are. On my Y Performance, the rash potential is much higher with zero protection by the tires on the stretched 21” wheels. I’m just very careful.

Agree, but was wondering is there anything that Model X drivers recommend.

I’ve never seen curb rash on X or S models like the 3 and Y’s seem to suffer.
My December delivery 2023 X the rubber extends past the rim so it’s going to be much less likely to occur.
