I do love the CT Aero cover & wheel, These aftermarket product look a little bit off. Maybe I have been staring at the CT too much. To me, I would not pay for something that make my CT look worse than original.

Is it possible it looks a bit odd (and non-truck like), because the truck is set at it's lowest point?

Nice. Where is that image from? Is there an external link?

They look like 18s, which I prefer. Never understood large rims on trucks, especially 4x4 offroad trucks. Does anyone know if the current breaks will clear 18 inch rims?

EDIT: Nevermind, found them. They are 20s. Because they are steel, they're heavy.

We need some 18s.

Can anyone confirm or get better shots? Looks like there is room? Image from tsportline.

I own a full size Tundra with 17inch rims, and the distance between the brakes and rims (with low profile weights) is about half an inch.

Luckily this company specifically has been making ev accessories for years and "probably" takes that into account. Plus, if you have the money to have a CT already then you likely have the money for the range extender in the future and if you're doing these mods, then you're likely not towing much and you don't need crazy range
Yeah I’m not familiar with them (and admit those steelies look pretty good!)

And also I didn’t watch the whole video

Do they elsewhere in this video or on their site mention that the wheels wont accept the aero covers, will have a negative range effect, or that the tires don’t match the OEM speed rating and otherwise may have further negative range effects?

I see now this a Cyberbeast, so these tires appear to be well below the OEM speed rating.




if they don’t mention it, then ā€˜taking it into account’ seems to mean ā€œthey know, but would rather customers didn’tā€?
