So your homeboy addressing me with "Hey dumbass" wasn't a personal attack? I can only assume you don't understand what the phrase "personal attack" means in this case because that's pretty obviously a personal attack, by definition. But yeah.... I'm the one attacking others personally. Sure.
You made my point by saying that even heavier wheels that ARE safety rated for the weight of a Model S have been known to fail. So your solution is to go with a wheel that was engineered specifically for a much lighter vehicle with much less power as a solution? Posting pictures of broken Tesla wheels further illustrates why you should be seeking MORE durable wheels with these cars. Being forged doesn't in and of itself make a wheel invincible, especially when it was never engineered to be on a car like the Model S.
But hey, why listen to me?
TSW made an article on why "load rating of a wheel, as determined by the wheel manufacturer, must never be exceeded" found here.
Here's the time stamped link to the part of the video where he talks about this
This was a 5-second search. You can find much more info yourself if you actually care including endless pictures of wheels (cheap and expensive alike) with catastrophic failure due to mismatching wheel load ratings to the vehicle they're being mounted on.
What is more challenging to find is the load rating for individual factory wheels. They get around this because they literally engineer them for the car they go on so it's not something they have to provide tot he consumer. Aftermarket wheels typically have this load rating however because they sell them direct-to-consumer and many different vehicles of different weights share the same bolt pattern... especially now that EVs are a thing. Before 2012 no wheel manufacturer every suspected that 5,000+ pound sedans would be the norm. This topic is more discussed in the 4x4 forums because the weight differences can be more extreme. It wasn't until EVs that this was even a consideration on passenger cars because they were all within a few hundred pounds of each other, at most.
All I've done is challenged how much consideration was given to the safety aspect of strapping random wheels on a VERY heavy and powerful vehicle. If this had been considered the response would have been much less toxic and logical. The response tone even in complete absence of anything of substance tells me all I need to know though.
Again, your car and you can do whatever the heck you want. This thread comes off as saying it's a good idea though. It's experimental at best and I'm here to offer information that others at least consider load ratings and safety from catastrophic wheel failure since the OP clearly hasn't. This is more for those who subscribe to the "just gonna send it" approach to potentially dangerous decisions in life. I tend to rely on data, analytics and physics whenever I stray off of the beaten path but that's just me.
Wonder when homeboy is going to come back and admit he was wrong.
