The only thing I will mention (and not to make you go back and forth again) would be the air suspension in the S makes for a significantly softer ride than anything on a Model Y or 3. I had similar concerns with the 21s, but test drove a buddies and it was like butter. That air suspension helps a ton.

I realize that they are designed that way for aero purposes. But I feel like they made them that ugly to force everyone into the Arachnids.

Word is in the LR delivery thread that 19” rims are starting to be delivered (no photos yet).
Let’s go!!!!

These are the 19s underneath the aerocaps. Apparently they’re dark grey now and not silver but idk if that’s confirmed. This image was from a video from several months ago prior to the change to the darker color.

Hope so but I’m still skeptical until a customer confirms delivery of 19s, and posts a pic for us.

That is all it is. Several posters are stating it. I still just wonder if it is the same SAs that are saying the Plaid only comes on 21s and are mixing it up. Or the ones that are thinking they have not delivered a single LR.
The actually are not as bad as I originally thought. Certainly not amazing for a car of this price range. I may stick with my plan of putting snow tires on these and use them for ski trips, and get a nicer looking set for the rest of the year.
I thought the same. I already have aftermarket forged 21's on order (for less than the $4500 non forged Arachnids) and planned to use the 19's as winter setup. Was kinda dreading the look but actually after seeing this photo..not bad at all. (But still getting my 21's)
What'd ya end up ordering? I'm planning the same - 19's for winter in Minnesota, and buying 20's or 21's for summer.

Nice look, got link to those. I was looking at their site and wanted to make sure the size 9.5/10.5, as well as the +40 offset, center bore of 64.1 and wheels can handle the weight, etc. for sure before ordering...
You know more than I do, I don’t have my car yet and don’t know offsets and things.
Another spotting

getyourwheels.com is a vendor on this site. Get with Lou in the vendor thread. Offers Forum pricing on the MRR wheels
I had a hard time finding forged wheels in the style and 21" diameter I wanted with 9.5. Most were 9.0. But same OEM 21" tire size for the refresh will fit fine on a 9.0 rim. And since the MRR wheels are made to order, you can get the offset you want. I went lower offset based on info in the aftermarket wheels thread. 32ET front and 35ET back seems about right for nice and flush but no rubbing.

Just placed a deposit for a wheels from @SignatureSales. Going back and forward on deciding the spec and Jamie has been very patient with me and all my wheel and tire questions.
I ended up with 20x9 Square with “staggered offset”. Love the idea where the rear can be super deep concave and flush but still using square tire setup + an option to rotate the tire if needed. I wanted to keep the efficiency and looks at the same time.
Also got a discount from Jamie for a set of 255/40/20 Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 tire. Wheel and tire came out just under $6k. I’ll be able to offset the cost and sell my stock 19 locally to a friend.
