Tesla Cybertruck owners don’t need any help sticking out. In fact, many of them would probably rather fade into the background, given the vitriol thrown at the trucks by some people. Owners who don’t mind the spotlight and want more of it would be well served with these gold 24-inch wheels from Unplugged Performance.

The California Tesla tuner’s new $7,145 Cybrspoke wheels feature a five-spoke design that makes the truck stick out even more than it did with the factory wheels. Perhaps the good news is that they don’t weigh more than the stock wheels with aero covers, and they can be ordered in satin or titanium finishes if the gold is too much bling.
Of course, spending more than $7,000 for a set of wheels is a big ask for many people, even if they can afford the Cybertruck. Its starting price has come down to the low-$60,000 range in recent times, but the top Cyberbeast trim still crests the $100,000 mark. Some versions of the Cybertruck are available with $7,500 federal EV tax credits, but that’s ending soon, leaving Tesla and all other automakers without a significant selling point.
The Cybertruck initially came with unique wheel covers, but they led to a stop sale when the automaker discovered that they wore holes in the tire’s sidewalls as they rolled. Tesla revised the covers and released a new version, but owners haven’t stopped finding other ways to violate everyone else’s eyes. The company showed wheels for other Tesla models at the event, but their more sedate styling and shape don’t “pop” like the Cybertruck’s.
Companies offer a number of wrap options for the truck, including some that mimic the styling of gas models like the Ford F-150. Some Cybertruck owners took to wrapping their vehicles to camouflage them from damage caused by Tesla protestors in recent months, but it’s pretty hard to get around the truck’s polygonal shape.
