    Set of Model X 22" Black Turbine Wheels + Perelli tires + TPMS - Brand New

    I have a brand new set of black 22" Turbines just mounted and balanced by Tesla today, never installed on a car. $4000 picked up in Orange County (SoCal) or $4400 shipped anywhere in the continental US. Text Ben at 714-200-3866 for the fastest response. I will check PMs but might not see them...

    New 22” Forged Turbine or 21” Arachnid wheels + tires + TPMS for sale (X & S owner)

    The 22" Turbines have a color option of Black or Silver, the Arachnids are only available in Silver. I own both a Model S and X so I can receive either reward. There are many people on the forum currently posting this offer that don't, and there are mixed stories about actually trying to...

    FS SoCal (OC): TSW forged 20” Nurburgring gunmetal wheels and Pirelli Cinterato P7’s for Model S

    I have a set of TSW forged Nurburgring wheels in gunmetal. Size is 20x9 +35 with 245/40 tires. Fits perfectly on the Model S, no rubbing or issues at full lock. These are extremely light (9 lbs per corner lighter wheel/tire combo) and strong due to the rotary forged construction. The size is a...

    Continental ExtremeContact DW 245/40ZR20 - 2 Tires LIKE NEW + Free 3rd tire

    These tires just came off my Tesla with 3k miles on them. Tread is over 9/32 and two of them are in like-new condition. I had a puncture on two of my tires, and the other two were completely untouched. One of the tires was repairable and was patched and plugged. I'm asking $250 SHIPPED (or...

    Quietest tires?

    I am about to replace my Continental ExtremeContact DW's with something else. I'm looking for the quietest possible tire. My wife has the stock Primacy's on her Model S and they are noticeably quieter. Obviously it's not fair comparing max performance summer tires to all season's, but it's...

    Is this normal, or an unusual amount of issues for a 3 week old car?

    Hi guys, I'm just posting this to see if I'm crazy or not. Over the course of the last 3 weeks (and about 2,500 miles) I've noticed several minor issues with my brand new 85D. If you could chime in and let me know which ones are "problems" and which ones are "normal" that would be great. In...

    Do your front windows hit the chrome trim when opening?

    I'm not sure if this is "normal" or not, but there is a fairly loud clacking sound (glass on metal) when I open my front doors. The rear doors don't do it. Because it's so well timed with the electronic latch noise the doors make when they open, my passengers don't really notice it. I've...

    Odd air suspension behavior when parked

    So over the past few weeks I've noticed that my car seems to be raising itself when parked. I'll be driving around at "normal" height all day, park the car in my garage, and come back to see unusually huge wheel gaps front and rear. If I get in the car it says it's at the "normal" height...

    Unintended consequence of buying a Tesla

    It would appear that there has been an unintended consequence of buying the Tesla: I am completely out of gum at work because I no longer stop at the gas station. This is extremely concerning. I will have to change my shopping habits at the grocery store/costco and stock up on gum there now...

    10mm Wheel Spacers?

    Does anyone know if the wheel studs are long enough on the Model S to safely accommodate 10mm spacers? Is anyone here running them? Adaptec Speedware makes some very high quality 10mm spacers that are hubcentric, but I don't want to deal with pressing in longer, aftermarket studs.

    Square vs. Staggered for 85D

    So I just ordered an 85D with the standard 19" wheels with the intention of upgrading them immediately and keeping the stock wheels for the lease turn in. After looking at many choices, a nice compromise in terms of weight, size, price, etc. seemed to be the TSW Nurburgring in 20x9 or 20x10 at...
