    2024 Model Y Long Range (MYLR) Tire Options

    I recently upgraded to a 2024 MYLR after my M3 was in an accident (rear-ended while sitting at a red light--total loss :(). Overall I love my new vehicle--but wow, I feel like it's got a stiff suspension. From what I've read online, I'm not the only one. The Automotive Fanatic says he swapped...

    22 MYP Front Tire Width Maximum

    Hi everyone, I am looking to get new wheels and tires for autocross and am struggling to find a 10.5-inch wide 19-inch wheel that has the load rating for the Y but think I found them (specs below). I also want to use the Bridgestone Potenza RE-71RS tires as it is the defacto autocross tire it...

    Swap out stock tires?

    Maybe wrong place? Tires are exterior right? Been reading the reviews on Tirerack for the Conti ProContacts RX, seems like this tire performs terribly in the snow and freezing rain. I’m getting my MYLR soon with the 19 inch wheels and am wondering if I should swap it out to something like the...

    Pirelli Scorpion Weatheractive (new Crossclimate competitor)

    Seems as if Pirelli has launched an All-Weather competitor to the Crossclimate family. No reviews, very few posts on any forums. Only found one within the last week on a Ford Explorer ST forum which runs a 21” size. Relevant sizes for Model Y are all alternative larger sidewall sizes for stock...

    Installing larger tire on Geminis

    I'm looking at installing tires with taller sidewalls on my Geminis for the Toronto winter months. I'm looking at getting slightly more comfortable ride. I'm looking at Michelin X-ice snows, 255 50R19. Stock OEM is 255 45R19. Does anyone know if this will cause any issues for general driving...

    Efficiency/Range estimates swapping to 245/40/19 on M3P

    Tesla and EV noob here so appreciate any insight, this is all very new to me. I am taking delivery on a 2022 M3P in 2 weeks, but not a fan of the 20 inch Uber wheels. Debating back and forth between and 18 or 19 inch wheel swap. My personal preference is that the 235/45R18 tire is a bit beefy...

    Looking to switch my model 3P from a 235/35R20 to a 245/40R20 in the front and l wider tire in the rear looking to see if anyone had done this and did you have any rubbing issues. Also look for all different variations of tires that will fit on rear and front of M3P.

    Efficient tires?

    Am looking for all-season tires to complement our winter tires (so maybe 3-season tires for here in New England), and I've found a lot of great threads here on the most quiet tires, but relatively little info on which tires are more efficient (i.e. less rolling resistance -> greater range). Of...

    2020 Model Y Stock Continental Tires

    I bought a 6/2020 Model Y Long Range and it came with Continental ProContact tires. The tires don’t say what size they are. How do I find out what size to order them at my local tire store, and what other tires are considered compatible? Does Tesla have a list of recommended tires for me?

    Using 245/45 R18 or 235/55 R19 tires on Model Y?

    Switching over from an E300 & a GLC300 to two (our first ever Tesla) Model Y! I have winter tires from both those cars and wondering if they can fit Model Y? It doesn’t officially match according to Tire Rack.. but wanted to hear from the community if these tires would fit the Model Y: 1. 245/45...

    Tire noise

    Our new Tesla 3 came with Continental 19" tires. There seems to be more tire road noise than I like or have on my other car (mini van;)) that has Michelins. Does anyone have recommendation?

    Long Range Suspension is too hard!

    Just got back from 700 mile round trip in our new Model Y - now with 955 miles! We're in our 60s and are in great shape, but we'll only use the Y for local sorties and trips shorter than 100 miles on known to be newer-surfaced highways. Suspension is too stiff, seat cushions are too hard and...
