These have been sold!

These came off my 2023 Model Y in the first week. These do NOT include the TPMS sensors. If you bought with the 20" or 21" wheels, but hate the poor ride quality, the 19" wheels are the way to go. $1,500 OBO. Local pickup in Chandler, AZ.

My Model Y with the 18x8.0 +30 Black Rhino Arches, 255/55R18 Falken Wildpeak AT Trails, MPP Lift and Rear Camber arm. Added 2 inches to ground clearance sitting at about 8.75 inches. My advice would be to hold off on replacing the rear camber arm and see how things sit with the alignment first...

Just picked her up from getting tires and wheels. Tomorrow she is getting the 1.75" MPP lift. I am turning her into a Subaru!

What tire pressure are you guys running? According to tiresize.com a 255/55R18 should be at 36 on the Model Y.

255/55R19 is a 30 inch tire. Does that fit? I thought the max was 29.5 inches.

Just picked up my 2023 Model Y with the Gemini wheels and they are still making the crackling noise, so nothing has been done to fix this. I am putting new wheels on it on Monday, so it won't matter for me, but thought I would provide an update.

I believe that when Tesla designed the Model 3 they used 255 tires and then decreased the tire width later in the process to increase the range. These tires look like what should have come on the car in the first place. Even the pics from the owners manual appear to have wider tires than the...

I definitely love the look of the wider tires. Any information on how this affected Wh/mile?\ TireRack did a comparison test between the Michelin AS3+, the Conti DWS, and the Pirelli P Zero A/S Plus: https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tests/testDisplay.jsp?ttid=216

I have been debating between the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ and the Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 in 255/40 19. I did a comparison on Tire Rack which I have attached. The Michelins are made in the USA, are 3 pounds heavier, and cost $136 more for 4 tires. I am leaning towards the...

I am considering these for my M3 LR RWD with 19" wheels. Not thrilled with the 10% efficiency loss, though. I would have to go 245 or 255 for the 19" wheels as they don't make the stock tire size for the 19" wheels.

I am also having issues with the in car Spotify. I am actually trying Spotify for the first time. I formerly used Google Play Music. I really like Spotify, but the in car app is just too buggy and does not have enough features. I find I have been using my phone to stream over the Bluetooth...

I tried to go to my regular Discount Tire in Chandler, AZ for a tire rotation. When I set the appointment up online, in the special requests section I mentioned the need for jack pads. When I showed up for my appointment, I spoke to the Discount Tire guy and they did not have jack pads for a...

Try disabling your contact syncing. This worked for me. Also, some people have had success by removing any symbols from their contact list on their phone.

I think the photos of Obsidian Black Metallic do not do it justice. I have only seen one, but when I saw it, I sped up to get a closer look. It was dusk and at first I could not tell if it was Midnight Silver Metallic or Black. When I got close I realized it was Obsidian Black Metallic. If I...
