I recently bought these from Aliexpress as well. There is an option for a mirrored version and each is stamped with an L or R on the back. What I find strange is when I mount them using "L" as the drivers side and "R" as the passenger wheel cover the fan blades curve as I would expect with the trailing edge swooping back but are twisted such that the slope of the blade is opposite what I would expect. I have no idea which is correct or if either direction would have any effect on range. Thanks for the video!
o wow didnt even know there was a option for that. Thanks for letting me know! That is weird. I would probably just mount them so the blade rotates the direction its moving as well if that was the case.
Are these covers mirrored for the side they are installed on, or are all 4 the same orientation of the spokes? At the end of the video it appears that the left side are not mirrored to the right.
All 4 of these caps are exactly the same so they arent mirrored unfortunately. I didnt even noticed until you brought it up to be honest :P. Cheers man!
Can't lie, I definitely winced when the hub cap hit the curb. It got some unexpected air time too. Good thing you can replace just one and you don't need to get a whole new set. They do look fantastic and the rim protection is a welcome bonus. Are there Model 3 equivalents on Ali Express?
Yip they sure are Anthony! Just search for "and yikun model 3". Yeah, I was surprised I could just buy one as well. Hope you had a great holidays and happy new year!
For sure, happy holidays to you too and looking forward to all the great content you’ll no doubt release in the new year! In the meantime, take a well earned break and enjoy some down time.

Nope there is a cut cut where the valves are on each tire :)
