They will fit but the tires are too short in diameter by about 1.5”. 28” for the 19” wheels and tires and 26.3” for the stock 18” Aero wheels and tires. That is why I put 235/55x18 tires on the Aero wheels. Taller sidewalk gives exact same diameter as stock Model Y 19” tires & wheels.

18" Aero wheels and Model Y load limits
- Thread starter Zoomit
- Start date
TPMS on the Model Y are different than the Model 3. $75/ea only from Tesla last I checked
Hmm… I’d read on here someplace that with the 2021 refresh, Tesla moved the Model 3 to using the same Bluetooth TPMS sensors as the Model Y.
Maybe that’s incorrect? I’ll have to double check. I guess I can simply look up the part numbers from the sensors on my wheels…. I’ll do that tonight and post back.
Just wanted to follow up on this to confirm that Model Y and Model 3 now share the same TMPS sensors. Here's the link to them sold by Tesla:
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
"Note: Compatible with Model S and Model X vehicles produced in 2021+, Model Y vehicles and Refresh Model 3 vehicles. Refresh Model 3 vehicles have chrome-delete door handles and window trim (see photo below for details). Please refer to the valve color on the wheels of your vehicle to select the replacement TPMS color in the dropdown. Product sold individually. Four Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems are needed for a set of four wheels."
The pre-refresh Model 3 (with the chrome trim) used the other type of TPMS, but it now all new Teslas use the same sensors.
Awesome looking setup!
Its been awhile since your post, any updates? how is everything holding up?
To all:
Do we know what the original model 3 aero wheels load rating was and how much the new aero wheels are rated at?

Original Aeros: 700kg
New Aeros: 750kg
Starting to see more new Aeros on Craigslist and sites like that. Would definitely recommend going with them over the original Aeros.
Thank you @pdx_m3s !
Am I correct in my understanding that they clear the Performance Model Y's breaks without any issues? (no need for spacers?)

At least on the Model 3, they will not fit without wheel spacers and shaving of the rear caliper. I can't speak for the Model Y, but would assume it would be a similar scenario to Model 3.
Thank you for the clarification.
Looks like there are no aerodynamic 18" wheels that are compatible with the MYP;
Model 3's Aero don't clear
FastWheels EV01(+) in 18" don't have sufficient load rating
"The New Aero" wheels are not available in 18
Heh, I wonder if anyone ever tried D-154 – Rotawheels which well... if open design is less aerodynamic then this surly is ... more aerodynamic? no idea if it clear the break calipers or not
I was thinking of going with a smaller diameter wheel for my LR. TireRack suggested this one ENKEI Phoenix idk if it will clear MYP, but according to them it is properly weight rated and light too. I kind of like the look.

These are not "AERO" but this is what I'm replacing the 21" UT with - TST 18" Tesla Model Y Wheel and Tire Package (Set of 4)
Sitting and waiting for my MPY to arrive

I'm not a tire guy in any way shape or form, but I am interested in 18" wheels as I've heard these are good for winter conditions (they are a bit narrower and penetrate the snow better than the standard MY 19" wheels).
Would these 18" wheel/tire combo fit a 2022 Model Y? Any concerns with using these for cold Atlantic Canada conditions? Thanks so much!

Thanks so much for the response! I may go with that tire or the 245/50R18. Haven't decided.

The 235 is a better diameter and will get slightly better range than the 245. The 245 is smaller diameter than stock, while the 235 is just barely taller.
Cheers. I actually made this same realization using a tire comparison tool. Sticking with the 235's

Looking for CrossClimate2 for my Y (love them on my 3), and the size I want (245/55 R18) is only available in 103V SL, not XL. 103V is pretty high and seems to cover the Model Y load, but a lot of places say to only replace with XL, which aren't available in this size. Is XL going to make a difference here or is that 103V more than enough?
