Shop Tesla Gear Tire Tote Comes in a set of two... Four would be more useful :) we could probably live without this, how about a TT-30 120V 30A RV Park adapter, would be more usefull, or even an L6-20 adapter (th have no 20A 240V adapters yet), that would allow charging at many Leaf users...

Have you upgraded you're 19" wheels/tires? You don't want to bother listing them on eBay? You might even be in the greater Boston, MA area? (Or I will pay for shipping). I am looking for up to 4 wheels/tires, hoping to get them in the summer/fall for use with snow tires coming up next...
