I'm running 255/40/20 all around on my MYP (101-rated Vredestein Quatrac Pro). It's not a sports car, nor is it lacking grip so was not interested in fitting wider rubber. Main motivation was a square setup for rotations, better ride quality and far lighter wheel/tire combo.

Thanks! I think Titan7 would be wise to list this config as a proper MY setup. I'm sure a lot of people would be interested in a square setup, and the ET40 is a good fit (not super aggressive).

Finally mounted the new Titan7 TS-5's on my wife's MYP. Happy with how they turned out. Much lighter and the new wheel/tire combo has less "crash" on rough pavement. Tire noise on the highway is slightly increased, but nothing bad. Interested to see how the Vredestein's perform over the...

I've heard good things about Gateway Powder Coating in O'Fallon (have not used personally). I'm sure you would have to bring in the calipers for them to coat, though. Maybe one of the local speed shops would take care of the install.

Thanks for the reply and suggestion - I'll take a look. In regards to the size, I wanted the Techna Bronze finish so the only option was to build a full non-staggered set of the 20"x10" rears from the Model 3 spec. I'm fine with this since I can run 255's all around. Much lighter than the MYP...

Hey All, Just ordered a set of Titan7 T-S5's (20"x10" ET40). They said conical lugs are required. Aren't the factory lugs conical already? Can anyone confirm? Yes, I'm being lazy and don't want to pull a lug just to check. :) On a similar note, any recommendations for a wheel lock set?

Hope so. I'm happy with the PUP as-is, but it's clearly holding back performance at low speeds.

Thanks, I hope they are available again or add the bronze option for the TS5.

Hey TSportline, What happened to the "falcon" wheels? Were they discontinued or re-branded? That model was on my shortlist. Any other models available in a bronze finish for Y fitment?

Yep, it's a regular performance. I originally had a stealth on order. Wasn't able to successfully price match, despite confirmation on chat, so I switched. Wheels will be replaced ASAP.

Hey All, I knew my car was going to be delivered to the SC today or tomorrow, luckily I was able to spot it on the lot to get an after-hours preview. Must be straight off the truck - I haven't received a call or update yet. Scheduled delivery is Saturday. Figured I post some photos for anyone...

Interesting - I'm waiting on a MYP in STL as well. Scheduled delivery on Saturday 8/1. Called the service center yesterday, and they said it was on a train to Chicago. I'm hoping the schedule holds, but we'll see.

Right on, appreciate the info. Just wanted to make sure I was not missing some magical step in the process.

How in the heck do you get a "delivery advisor"? I placed an order online - other than a "thank you for your order" email, I've had no updates or communication sent from Tesla.

Good luck to both of us! I don't want the 21" wheels either. I'd replace immediately and I figure I'll likely pay more in the end.
