Great job, this was the first thing i done with my Model Y. Personally i got mine with Tesla logo which you stick on the centre hub, just makes the car look nicer. 😎
I must be weird. I prefer the before.. I have a MYLR and kept the stock covers. I did think people would replace the 19 inch wheels for larger ones, and as I wanted a second set to have winter tyres on I'd been keeping an eye on ebay for them, but good sets rarely some up. Maybe people just do what you've done and fit larger trims....
Nice video. Tesla alloy upgraded wheels and metallic paint are pricey. Would like to see you review an accessory instrument cluster if there are any good ones.
Is it me or did Tesla not fit your rear plate straight as well 😂. Wish I had these on my model 3, 3 years ago. My lease is up in 9 months and the edge of my wheels all need refurbing first. These look ace for the money. You just need the rear spoiler now.😊
Yes I did, quite easy to apply, it’s only one sided as well so doesn’t stick to the actual wheel, just makes for a dig fit and offers some protection to the rim.
What would an insurer do if you damaged one in an accident, would they need to buy a full replacement set or just replace it with an odd Tesla original?
Great video but not for me......... wheels, Motocross boots, trainers...... never black! Looks slow and heavy,I can still see Andy Murray plodding about the court in his black trainers 🫣 Thanks for the content and have a great new year 👏👍
Do change plastic wheel trims for another set of plastic wheel trims (albeit with a different design) constitute as a modification and has to be notified to your insurance? This is the biggest thing making me not wanting to make any mods on the exterior. The UK insurance system seems to be so backwards when it comes to minor enhancements like this.
That’s what we’ll find out, EV Base state that these are better than the plain alloys but I need to test the figures vs the stock trims once I have enough data for it to be worthwhile
The standard ones are just as easy, hopefully if you can afford the car you can afford the trims. I’m a glass half full sort of chap, not everyone is out to get you.

Class. Feel like I've gone in a time machine back to my B reg Sierra in the 90's. Oof trims.
😂😂 I know, it’s hilarious really

Yes, I’ve just asked them to send me some!
Nice - they looks close enough to the option Induction wheels 👍🏻
Yes they do 👍
Looks better. Should have given it a wash and some tire shine to make it look even better 😂
That was the plan but it was cold and I simply couldn't be arsed
Looks better with the black trims 👌
👍
Looks miles better with the black wheels
I think so too, I left them on!

You’re not weird mate, you just have a different opinion 👍👍👍
Reach thru the back and push the clips to ease them off, rather than just pull. Much simpler and safer. Love mine ❤
I’m double hard though Roger 💪
Car looks much better.
👍👍
Ordered with discount! Thank you.
You're welcome
Good vid, white car, black alloys/trims always look good
Cheers Andy 👍

Noted!
Finally a decent review on some covers! Did you have to pay any import tax or fees as they are shipped from the US?
I got them for free, they came from South Africa I think!
Definitely looks better with black trims are these 18” or 19”
19”
Never been the first comment before....exciting! I agree, I think these aftermarket wheel trims look better on this colour car 🤩
I expect it every time now 😁👍
Looks MUCH better 👍🏻
👍👍
Shame these weren't available when I got mine in early 2022. Would have got the instead of the "proper" ones instead.... Impressive, night and day :)
👍👍

I think the good lord fitted your eyes wrong Mark 😂 I’ve just had a look and it seems straight to me, but so did Matthew Kelly for all those years…
Definitively worth 20 quid!
Well done mate!
😂 glad you think so, shame they’re £200
Oops, sorry mate, I definitively must have misheard!
@@DefinitelyNotAGuru
Not bad tbh, good mod that is not gonna cost you the earth 👍🏻
If they get scuffed these are very easy to replace too.
Thanks Jim Nice discount too cheers mate 👍
Cheers 👍👍
Definitely looks the part with the black trims. Did you use the foam/tape Jim?
Yes I did, quite easy to apply, it’s only one sided as well so doesn’t stick to the actual wheel, just makes for a dig fit and offers some protection to the rim.

Nowt I suspect, they're plastic trims rather than bolt on "modifications"

😁👍👍 thanks for watching mate
What was the delivery time from EVBase to uk? Or are they shipped from the uk?
Mine came in about 10-14 days I believe.
👍👍👍Looks good. Thank you Jim
Thanks Pete👍
Visually do the wheels in black look smaller?
There’s a joke there but I’m not going to make it - I don’t think they do to be honest

I say it doesn’t, it’s not a bolt on permanent mod but see what your insurer says
Looks mint for £200 🤩
👍👍👍
I was so hoping you would be referencing the software update . Is it true it lights up rear view mirror with directions to fire exits ? Haha .
I did a separate video on the software update, thankfully I uploaded the footage before the inevitable fire 😁
@@DefinitelyNotAGuru couldn’t resist , sorry .
😂👍
Just wondering Jim would it be an option to wrap the original trims?
Maybe but the originals don’t protect the wheel rim (these do) and not sure how well a wrap would last on a wheel trim.
I know your trims were gifted but what about simply spray painting the original tesla trims black?
I think the car is leased, so could cause some issues I guess.
It would look awful and last about 20 mins before it peeled or got chipped.
I guess you loose the added range the factory trims gave?
That’s what we’ll find out, EV Base state that these are better than the plain alloys but I need to test the figures vs the stock trims once I have enough data for it to be worthwhile

Easy to fit and easy to steal, hope yours do not get nicked. They look OK, but I find Teslas look very bland, so anything to help improve their looks.
The standard ones are just as easy, hopefully if you can afford the car you can afford the trims. I’m a glass half full sort of chap, not everyone is out to get you.
Noc😢 thanks for your efforts 🙏
It's my pleasure
