    Roadster Rotary Forged Wheels (Complete Set)

    Bart, Look at the Tesla forged tires on their website. $3200 only for the set of 4 wheels. No tires, no TMPS, no tools. This set is overall cheaper as the set from Tesla. And this set is bigger and wider. You might be able to just buy the wheels. Do you want me to check with the manufacturer...

    Roadster Rotary Forged Wheels (Complete Set)

    RPM Question " I drove this Roadster for a week or without getting any error. However I forwarded the question to the manufacturer. The price is pretty high, because they machine and assemble the wheel in-house. I guess if they would have been produced in China then they might be quite...

    Model E prototype to be released in Detroit next year?

    I would wish that they should it to their supporters/customers first. Detroit just wishes for the last 10 year that Tesla goes down. Why would you allow Detroit the pleasure to show the car there first? Let's hope that there is a customer event prior to Detroit.

    Supercharger - Las Vegas, NV - Bridger Ave.

    From what I see from the picture that must be the location on 701 Bridger Ave. The stairways seems to be the ones from the building S 8th Street. LV is very hot in summer and having the chargers in the shade is great.
