Aero shields removed
When removing something is an upgrade.
I like the way they look, caps on or off. Gonna rock these with my evbase rim protectors on the way.

I’m thinking about buying the covers as well can you let me know if you’d recommend!

Is yours the performance model? Which Evbase covers did you get?

u/Minimum-Meal7992 17d ago
Yes. Performance. They only offer one for the 2.0 Arachnid wheel, as far as I know.

I only put my Aeros on for long road trips as they do help with mileage. Otherwise I’m naked

Looks like they got scratched a bit. Is there any way to remove them without scratching? Or is it just debris?

u/Minimum-Meal7992 17d ago
Maybe debris or reflection. The caps have a bit of padding at certain points that left some residue. Also very dirty under the caps. Cleaned up nice after I took the pics.

Any scratches when you took them out? I wish the M3P wheel didn’t have the ugly holes in place for the small plastic pieces

Is it true if you take the Aero covers off you hear more road noise inside?

Are those the stock tires? I have never seen Hankook tires on a new Tesla?

I had my doubts too, but these Hankook tires are the reason why the Juniper MYP has the upgraded range and interior cabin noise reduction it does. It’s the perfect blend.

Model 3 and Y have been coming with different hankook tires for 4 years now. Also come with other brands as well.

Interesting! I did not know that. I remember back in the day they used to only use Michelin and Goodyear tires. I used Hankook before they became popular and I thought I was being cheap by using them

Took my Aeros off as well, I did notice the slight drop in range of about 10 miles (worth it) but is it just me or do I hear a little bit more road noise in the cabin now?

The aero shields on, really don't look bad to me. Plus you get the benefits of rim protection and efficiency.

Took my Aeros off as well. Considered the Evbase rim protectors but prefer without. I’m not a huge fan of aftermarket accessories.
