Now I think that looks very cool indeed. Nicer than the 1st Edition alloys I reckon.

We’ve actually just ordered a set of Loens for our ID3 so we will have our steel wheels and hubcaps for sale in a week or 2 if you’re still looking?

I thought the Andoya look amazing but eventually chose the east derry as they at 1" smaller, slightly more battery life, more comfortable ride and 95% ad good looking. Shocked at their aftermarket price !!! But glad I chose them now

Good thing about the East Derrys (apart from the price) is that the tyre side walls are tall enough for the missus not to scrape the alloys on a typical height kerb!

Keep your 18" steel wheels with aero trims and you will get better range. Also, they are much stronger you don't have to worry about kerbing. And even if you do damage a wheel, you can buy a replacement very cheaply.
