I would guess the 275 in front causes unsersteer.

I actually just bought the model X with the 20 inch wheels because I like this degree of extra bright comfort the extra profile Tire provides

Curious if you prefer the 22s for what reason?

You’re talking fantasy. I’ve owned the model Y performance and you’re never gonna get 3.2 seconds. Maybe with perfect conditions- 3.7 seconds. I’ve owned , both

From another view, what upside do they have to influence you other than manufacturers recommended spec? Zero upside. So why go there?

If you’re ok with “after market” aesthetic which I’m not.

275/35/21 in rear. 255/45/20 up front. Best ride ever.

I’m looking at a car right now with the sport line and they totally look aftermarket so I think I’m giving you advice to save you about $4000 why I tell you refrain from buying aftermarket!! a car will be able to fit all season tires on the 21 inch wheel and you can double check on tire...

Congrats on your Model S Plaid. I have a model Y and would never go down to 19 inch because the wheel well it’s too large for aesthetics. 20 inch work great for my car and I do the 45 profile to give it a nice ride. If it’s a five month winter interval I would probably buy an extra set of...

No you just have to find another installer that load rating is purely technical unless you plan on piling up your car and loading it to the max it’s not going to be an issue but like everything else nobody wants to sign off on 1/2 of one percent chance it could be an issue so I just find another...

True but most Tesla owners (on this forum) live in a warm weather climate so across-the-board a better choice for rain. I live in Irvine where approximately 25% of all vehicles on the road are Tesla. And AWD makes them good for all but deep snow- then chains are probably advisable.

And for anyone reading this thread I’ve owned the long range with the 19 inch wheels and continental tires and let me just say those tires are average at best; so it’s kind of unproductive to be “dressing up your car” with different wheel options and at the same time using those tires- which of...

100% good idea. Much smoother ride and no performance decline.

Not at all. I put 255/45/29 Pirelli scorpion on fronts and stock Pirelli 275/35/21 on rear. 255/50/20 will bounce. Don’t do 50 mm profile it loses the car.

The model Y performance has two motors like the long range but the rear motor is larger unlike the long range. Gone are the days when you could for $2000 buy the acceleration boost software upgrade which brings the model Y long range dangerously close to the model Y performance 0 to 60 time...

Y is rated to 186 mph which is 20% faster than MY can possibly go. But this is like tax advice, nobody is going to sign off on you driving 186 mph with fully loaded MY.

If you really do the math on the load rating that falls within spec unless you plan on piling your car with a full maximum load which you would probably never do so it’s really up to you. Of course car manufacturers are conservative so they never under size the load rating.

I find the Vrestein hypertrack are a better ride. Definitely smoother more quiet and longer tread life with no drop off in performance.

This is the set up with higher255/45/20 tires in the front on 20s and the lower profile standard performance 275/35/21 Pirelli ‘s in the rear. You won’t get a better ride.

All believable but the bottom line is in my opinion the sport line rims look crappy because they’re aftermarket; so for the times you get to show off racing against somebody versus all the other times the car looks cool it’s not worth the trade off in my opinion. Most people don’t realize one...

Well if your accounting for the rotation difference on the speedometer for the size of the wheel then I guess it’s true. but really the big picture is would you rather have half a second off your time and crappy looking wheels that are too small for the wheel well ? or would you rather be a...

I replied because I’m speaking from first-hand experience there’s a lot of noise about transfers being against policy but like I said I brought the person to the Tesla center and gave her drivers license to Tesla and they told me it was fine she could take delivery of the car and then two days...

For the record you can go to 245 5020 but the car has oversteer and floats. I tried and then removed. in my opinion the perfect set up is 255 4520 upfront Uber turbine off the model three ; and 275 3521 rear off the model Y performance the front eats up all the vibration & the rear...

And to save you the headache I actually made the reservation transfer at the Tesla center where they told me it was OK three days later all of my other cars disappeared

Prepare to get blacklisted I did this six months ago and they removed all my reservations and stopped me from ordering their cars you are blatantly breaking Tesla policy by doing this.

Go Contis DWS they are amazing for grip and performance and price. I run those on my MY and love them. 255/45/20 and 275/40/20 rear. Smooth ride. Grip and control.

Don’t do it. I tried. You lose road feel. 255/45/20 are best for performing and ride cushion.

I’m actually thinking to run 275/35/21 rears and 255/45/20 Uberturbine from M3P in front. The front absorbs most of vibration and rears give it classic width and 21 size. With tires wheel size is same.

IMO the Tesla YP is the single best looking Tesla of any model because of the size and look of Uberturbine wheels. Can you get lighter? Sure. Do they look good? IMO, no. Not close. M3P Uberturbine can fit the MY but looks small in wheel well. You can stagger with 275/40/20 and 255/45/20 and...

Ive owned both vehicles and the acceleration boost is definitely the way to go because the long range will add miles and comfort on the suspension where is the performance you’re on low profile tires and a stiff suspension and I’ve raced my acceleration boost head to head with a performance and...

Newly mounted Pirelli P7 AS plus 3: 255/45/19 have just 200 miles. Mounted and balanced and ready to go. Has TPMS. These tires are superior in performance and comfort to OEM Continentals. Nitrogen inflated. Local Irvine, CA pick up.

I just mounted to 255/50/19 Pirelli scorpion on my Gemini wheels. HUGE improvement over OEM Contis. Driving on the OEM tires felt like wearing old shoes. The 50 profile sidewall gives perfect balance ride comfort and the superior tire quality handles much better.

I just learned PSI can decrease according to tire size bringing more supple ride. https://tiresize.com/pressure-calculator/

No. I have 2 Uberturbine for sale.

Thx. I’ve learned thru buying and selling Ys that they tend to be like iPhones- they’re always getting better and not much value holding onto them so investing money in them never comes out. That said I agree with your assessment. Avoid both jarring and bouncy. I think 19 or 20 are max to use...

I have them installed now NP

The trade off on a soft ride is a bouncy ride. The OEM set up is great for 25% of the time but if you drive the freeway on a daily basis you basically want a soft ride

What suspension package do you recommend or know of?

Ever try? A tire shop could mount to let you test fit. I’m curious.

Did you ever get answer? I run 245/45/20 on my LRY and it’s great with max summer. With all season it may feel bouncy or floaty. But I’m thinking to try 255/45/20 next. With 50 profile you may feel out of touch.

Isn’t Rivian just a research and development arm for Ford? That in itself is huge but isn’t that reality? Does anyone expect Rivian to produce for masses?

I think simply put Elon musk allows no fat on the company bone. I wonder if Rivian has the same rigor. Actually I am 100% certain they do not but how close can they Or any start up be?

There is SpaceX… and then there’s everybody else. Same applies to Tesla. “There’s Tesla…and then there’s everybody else”.
