I changed my Tesla Model Y Gemini Wheel Covers - Review
I replaced my original 19" Gemini Wheel Covers (Aero Caps) of my Tesla Model Y with hub caps I ordered from Aliexpress. In my review I want to share my experience with them.

*Amazon* Update on availability
A lot of wheel covers are available on Amazon by now.
Check if they ship locally or from China - which takes as long as with Aliexpress, but the price might be higher:

ЁЯУж Update on *Shipping:*
The center wheel caps with Tesla logo are now shipped separately. Contact the seller after purchase and they'll do so.
The price is shown lower with higher shipping costs to make use of an EU tax rule. If the price without shipping is lower than 150 EUR the tax is collected by Aliexpress. Otherwise it would be collected by the delivery company and they usually add a handling fee.
тЭЗя╕П Update on *Range Loss:*
I've been driving with the new wheel covers for some weeks and miles. I didn't notice any range loss so far. I tried to measure the efficiency but didn't get a fair result. The influence on range by other factors (traffic, temperature, wind,...) seems to be bigger than the influence from the wheel caps.
With the release of software update 2022.36.2 and the new energy app - I'm currently doing a new comparison test!
