Since they are a covered wheel design they will never be as light as a spoked design. But they are 34,5 lbs compared to

the GT 21's at 37.2lbs front and 38.2lbs rear

I know many people are very into light wheels but for EVs the aerodynamics are much more important. Aero can make a differente in range of 5+% but weight can save 0,1 s in acceleration.

What about your 19 inch wheel size? Weight is my concern thanks to handling.
 
The 19” is cast but still directional. It’s 31 lbs. Maybe if you opt for a really light tire. Oddly there is no record of how much tires weight even if they are the furthest from the center of rotation and thus the most important weight if you want that acceleration 1/10s
 
As an aside question, I’m aware the center logo can be changed to a Tesla logo today. What about a Lucid logo?
 
Do you have any future plans for a 20" aero wheel?

I am unsure about the size of the lucid center cap. Do you have one you can measure?
 
I see in your description that you gaurantee the 21" wheel fit. Are any of your 19" wheels suitable for a GT? I am looking a cold weather solution with all season tires and the 19" provide the most tire options.
 
I am checking with the factory if the 19" works. They have access to drawings of brakes. Our 21" are staggered and fit the OEM tires. Front wheels are the same width, back wheels are 9" (Lucid use 9,5") but the tire still works.
 
He did not have the brake on Lucid. Anyone tried the Tesla 19" Slipstream?

We can do a deal where you don't pay until you know they fit. But are there winter wheel options from Lucid? I can look at the specs of those in that case.
 
Not on the Lucid but here are the prototypes on a Model 3.
