You’re very welcome, Jinu. It was a pleasure meeting and chatting with you as well. Be well, Jordan

Wheels are SOLD. Thanks for everyone‘s interest.

Yes, the wheels are still available

Pic from Martian Wheels website with wheels mounted on a Model S.

More Pics of wheels/tires. Wheel specs: 19 x 8.5 +35 offset (pre-refresh 19 wheel size) https://martianwheels.com/products/tesla-model-s-19-inch-mw03-forged-wheels?variant=31261619847237 Tire specs: Continental Extreme Contact DWS06+19 x 245 x 45ZR (pre-refresh 19" tire size)...

Brand new, never used. Lowering price for wheels and tires to $2000 to move them. Also realized I can ship them individually via FedEx or UPS instead of placing on pallet and shipping via common carrier.

I purchased Martian forged 19” wheels for my Model S refresh. Unfortunately, they changed the wheels on the refresh and these will not likely fit (haven’t tried). Continental DSW06+ tires are mounted with Tesla TPS sensors and, of course, never used. These look amazing and are very light. I...

I agree that it is a big issue. The forecast is for intermittent rain all week and I'm not sure I feel comfortable driving this car given the damage that could be incurred.

Can you use 19x8.5 +35 offset with 245/45 all seasons on the new model S? This square setup was fine for pre-refresh. Any reason it won't work other than looking a little weird because it doesn't fill the wheel well?

I received my MSLR about 3 weeks ago (ordered 1/27/21). My driving impressions are much like others who have experienced their MS for the first time...amazing!! From a fit and finish standpoint it is pretty good...nothing glaring, generally a high feeling of quality. Now for the incredibly...

Same here. RN1144, Feb 1 order, MSM LR 19” wheels. Had Aug EDD for a week after having been blank for 2 months, then blank again a week ago.

I got it fine…hence the wink emoji. I was humoring the argument with something more than inane banter.

Same here. After 2 months of blank, I got a week of “August” then blank again. I ordered on Feb 1 (RN1144) and haven’t changed my order at any point. What a frustrating and annoying process!! Tesla, and all of us, would be better off not even attempting to ”estimate delivery”. Any objective...

Not true unless traveling vertically at steady velocity. To be more realistic ;), one would have to weigh an extra 460 lbs while driving up a 10 deg incline at steady speed to be equivalent to the difference in horizontal accelerations between Plaid and LR.

Same here. Ordered Feb 1, blank EDD for a couple of months, now August. :rolleyes:

Do you know if Tesla would then charge you the higher price because the “change” you made before delivery? Since it’s just software being turned off, I would assume no, but you know what they say about assuming anything about Tesla pricing/delivery/customer service. :cool:

True, electricity generation is currently dominated by coal and NG. The key to sustainability is to get the generation of electricity to zero carbon and while transitioning transportation, appliances, etc away from gasoline and NG to electricity. If we don’t embrace expansion of nuclear via...

Yeah…sure…it must be good! My Feb 1 order (RN1144) has been that way for 2 months now so I’m really doing fantastic...like REALLY fantastic! Wait your turn and you will eventually be where I am. ;)

I’ve been doing this for decades specifically because it’s not hard to have empathy for LEO. Every stop has the potential to be dangerous…anything I can do to lower the stress is helpful. Windows down, engine off, hands on the top of the steering wheel holding my drivers license with both...

yes…19”. Not going to the play the up order to 21” to get ”possibly“ get car earlier.

11442 with no date. Really sad.

I’m in identical situation. 1144 LR/MSM/Black/19” 1150 Plaid/MSM/Cream/19” Still blank on both after an initial June date for the Plaid ordered in May. Very deceptive in my opinion.

On the surface this appears to be a very valid consideration; however, if you dig deeper it is much less so. Assuming the shift to EV’s is gradual and in equilibrium with a concomitant reduction in demand for gasoline, the net effect on demand for electricity is relatively small. The reason...

That would make Tesla one fragile company. LOL

It’s a vicious cycle chasing EOQ deliveries which doesn’t actually result in more shipments for the year. In fact, optimizing manufacturing and delivery without regard to arbitrary dates/deadlines will result in greater output, better quality and lower cost. Since Elon is supposed to be so...

Well…that’s just great! I ordered Martian forged 19” wheels, non-staggered, about A month after I placed my order in Feb. Along with the green eye of my Tesla charger, the stack of wheels, also fitted with Conty DWS+ tires, are a constant reminder of how ridiculous this process is with Tesla...

I do. i’m In Fort Wayne taking delivery at Tesla just east of Keystone. Ordered day after refresh announced, RN1144xxx…still nothing From SA and blank on account for both Plaid and LR

So this looks different to me. When did the 19" wheels go dark? I like it if that is how they'll ship. I'm still blank btw...LR, RN1144xxx.

Now, how are we going to fit all this extra information into Leojsayta’s excellent Tesla adaptation of the Four Noble Truths without making everyone’s eyes cross? This might be an example of where knowledge actually ruined something. 😁

Or: …4. Order multiple Plaids in different configurations to hopefully minimize delay. 😁

I’m not a buddhist, but I think you have hit upon the essential truth of our agony… The Four Noble Truths of Buddhism: 1. Life is painful 2. Pain is caused by desire 3. Eliminate desire to eliminate pain 4. Follow the Holy 8-fold path to eliminate desire. Clearly, most of us struggle with 2 and...

Yes, ordered FSD after original purchase and I have had the remove FSD the entire time. On another subject, for the first time since 1/27, I have no delivery info at all. Was August for the last several weeks. Strange

Youa’re welcome…was just satisfying my curiosity.

I think it should be read +FSD, not Plaid+

RN1144 here, LR MSM. Order placed 2/1/21. My original delivery estimate said March, changed to July In early April

in true Tesla fashion...numbers/timing/answers don’t line up, the poll percentages don’t add to 100% and, in fact, greatly exceed 100%. Bravo if the OP somehow intended/controlled that!

My Gen 3 has been mocking me for two months now...twinkling its little green eye at me every time I enter and exit the garage.

I bought a set of Martian 19" wheels with Conti DWS06+ at 245/45R19 for my not yet received refreshed MS. Will this wheel/tire size work on the new model S? The staggered wheel setup above would look great, but I'm interested in a little more sidewall for pothole resilience, range, and tire...

How is the mobile service in Fort Wayne now? I am reading horror stories about Tesla service all over the world and will not take the plunge if there isn’t some reassurance that service won’t be a frequent irritant. Would appreciate any feedback from Fort Wayne owners. Thanks.

Thanks Greg. I was looking at Martian Wheels (18 Inch MW03 FORGED Wheels Tesla Model 3) . They have an 18" M3 Performance wheelset in 7.5" width, 8.5" and 9.5" width. For winter tires I'd really like to stick with the 7.5" width wheel. Their recommended tire sizes for this rim are 215/50-18...

Hello, new to the forum. I’m likely to buy an M3P early next year and trying to work out the best wheel combo for winter. Has anyone used the Pirrelli Sottozero RFT 225/60R18 on one of the properly machined 18” wheel options? Looking to get as much sidewall as possible and backing that up...
