After a lot of searching, there's reports that leaving the wheel covers on will eventually wear on the wheel and leave scuffs and scratches. I do plan to get aftermarket wheels once the oem tire wears out, and plan to sell the Gemini wheels.
I'm not into the lug nut covers and want to replace the oem lugs with solid black lug nuts. Also, research has shown oem lugs will warp, expand, and deform over time especially with the 129 torque specs. side note, i've only ever owned Hondas, Toyotas, and a Kia and they all come with good solid chrome plated closed ended lug nuts, so I was surprised to find these cheap raw steel lug nuts on a Tesla...
these are "cold forged", 60' conical acorn bulge, M14x1.50, "meets oem and aftermarket applications"
