Oh wow. That's so weird! Even the name is Turbo ?

19" and 20" somehow have same range in range estimator (which is not available in US).

So, more comfy and better range?

Yes, but many people do think these aero wheels are not as cool as more conventional sports wheels. Although I disagree, I respect that.

What’s not to like? I think they look great.

I just ordered those exact wheels in 19” with Pirelli P Zero winter. I ordered the CT4 with 21” wheels with summer Pirelli tires. Mostly for the driving in winter not the look.

Do you have these wheels? Do you like it? Have you thought of changing to 20" wheels?

check out this thread. i did this with $10 worth of carbon fiber wrap and an hour of effort. i love the look.

bonus, is if i get tired of this look, i can change the wrap to something else

This looks amazing. It's convincing me to stick to 19" wheels. What's the carbon fiber wrap you used? Can you share a link to that? Also, can you upload a pic of your car?

This is what I used, the smaller roll was more than enough. There may be different or better solutions.

Here is a pic. I am not particularly OCD, so it didn't take me that long. Only screw up was not realizing the back tires were different size as the front (duh!) so I wasted a bit of material (but still had plenty) as I had to cut some extra pieces.

I did it by first creating a template using a piece of paper. Then I traced the template on a sturdier piece of cardboard, then I used the cardboard as a template to cut the film with a razor blade.

Cool, thanks for sharing.
I don't think I'm confident enough to do it on my own though. I'm a newb.

I am also a newb. There is no risk, except a less than perfect job, since you aren't damaging the car if you do a bad job. You can just peal off the wrap with the help of a hair blower and try again.

Mine are 21”. Had them painted gloss black to go with optioned black window trim. It’s all subjective but I like how the car looks overall with the larger wheels.
