If you’re not a fan of the standard aero wheel covers that come with the Tesla Model 3, we might have a solution for you! Today, we’re checking out an exciting alternative—the HaloDisc 2.0 wheel covers from HaloBlk.
First Impressions: Meet HaloBlk
This review is completely unsponsored—we just happened to meet the HaloBlk team at SEMA last year, and we hit it off. We share a passion for adding value to the Tesla community, so when they launched the HaloDisc 2.0, they sent us a set to try out.
We tested them on our 2024 Model 3 in the video above.
Why Do Wheel Covers Matter for EVs?
Tesla’s stock aero wheel covers are designed to improve efficiency, which is a huge factor for EV performance. Here’s why:
- Aerodynamics – Reducing drag increases range, potentially by 4-5%, especially on highways.
- Lightweight Design – The car is already heavy, so efficient airflow helps with overall load management.
While we’re not aerodynamic engineers, it’s clear that the smoother airflow from these wheel covers should help with efficiency.
Installing the HaloDisc 2.0 Wheel Covers
The installation process might look complicated, but it’s actually quite simple and secure once you understand the system. Here’s how it works:
- Align the cover over the wheel.
- Push it in—there’s a bit of looseness at first.
- Use the provided hex tool to tighten the connection, ensuring a rock-solid fit.
- Secure the locking cover, which ensures the cover doesn’t come off unexpectedly.
The entire process took us just a few minutes for one wheel—not bad at all!
The Pros and Cons of HaloDisc 2.0
👍 Pros:
✔ Easy installation – The tool and design make it simple to secure.
✔ Full-wheel coverage – Protects against damage while enhancing aesthetics.
✔ Retro-inspired look – A flat, aerodynamic style reminiscent of classic wheels.
✔ Customization potential – These can be wrapped or bought in pre-designed styles.
✔ Security – Extra safety features prevent covers from flying off, even in rough conditions.
👎 Cons:
❌ Curb rash risk – If you hit a curb, the cover will take the damage. However, this is a pro if you consider that it’s protecting your wheels from the damage.
Customization Options
One of the coolest things about these covers is that you can wrap them to match your car! Imagine:
- Matching colors – Wrap them in the same color as your vehicle.
- Accent designs – Add unique details or patterns for extra flair.
- Alternative pre-designed covers – HaloBlk offers multiple styles beyond the blank version we tested.
Final Thoughts: Should You Get Them?
We’re pretty impressed with the HaloDisc 2.0 wheel covers. They’re well-designed, easy to install, and offer real functional benefits beyond just aesthetics. If you’re looking for a way to boost your Model 3’s efficiency and style, these are definitely worth considering.
