21" Uberturbines Square set up on a LR MY

[SteveFromNY]

Hey Steve, any range lost from those fat tires? Also, any speed lost from 0-60 due to the extra tire weight?

Very minimal, I think the larger diameter creates more travel surface, but that’s my very unscientific way to measure.

 

[SteveFromNY]

Wow that looks amazing with the larger rear tires, guessing not possible to do that in front as well due to the rubbing issue on the suspension arm?

Thanks! I think 275 is the max up front. I got 265/40/21 in the front to be safe.

Hi Steve!

What mud guards/flaps are those on your Model Y? They look really good!

Thank you!

Hey! I got them from Amazon. It’s not bad in terms of looks, but I also had PPF installed on the bottom parts of my doors in case it doesn’t completely block all rock chips. If you buy these, also use more double stick tape for a secure fit.

Since they don’t come with Caster; Keep an eye how the tires are wearing; If you see more wear on the inside, to correct that problem you must have adjustable caster when doing a wheel alignment.

Check out Amazon for best price: Rear adjustable Camber Kit.. about $160

Another $100 to install them and Boom a wheel alignment $120.. your tires will wear out evenly and therefore last longer..

Most 21’ 22’ tires are directional; You can’t turn them around; On the tires it tells you Outside and Inside.

Huh? Caster or Camber? Not sure what adding caster in the rear is going to do? MY doesn't have rear wheel steer.

I did a square set up on my Model Y LR as well. However, I did 4 of the "fronts" with 10mm spacers in the back.
265/35/21 all around. The Hankook EV tires - so far I like them... only has been a week though...

Updating this as I am now running 4 rears with all of them being 275. No issues at all

are you running 275/35r21's in the front or 275/40r21's ?

 

[Doublea88]

Oh sorry running stock size 275/35, I believe 40 would rub on arm knuckle.

 

[Boedha-Online]

I'm thinking of making a square set of rears so the 10.5" but was wondering what the max width and hight I can put on the rim
275/35R21 I'm seen other do without an issue. looking around if someone already did 285 or even 295/35

 

[Doublea88]

I was thinking of doing 285 or 295 when I replace the tires but haven't found out if they will rub at all. Some even say can do 305 but for rears only

rears for sure. I had 305/35R21 in the rear and plenty of room left to go even 315

 

[Doublea88]

Just need to know how wide can go so I can run them up front with no issue.

I assume you are still loving the 10.5" square setup and haven't determined any particular reason to use the 9.5" square setup instead.

 

[Doublea88]

Yup still love it since the ride is surprisingly more comfortable than my original inductions. I also took some photos just now with the wheel turned all the way out to show clearance.

Are you planning on dropping it inch to close up the wheel gap?

 

[Doublea88]

I wanted to drop it but I think I will def rub on that knuckle if I drop it any amount. Unless I go back to 20 or 19 wheels.

My friend has 295s on the back. They fit perfect.

 

[Doublea88]

Yea 295 is fine for rear but I'm worried about front, I think 275 is most for the front

Just bought another 21" uberturbine set and installed the rear once on my front so have now 4x 10.5" all around. they come with Pirelli Pzero elect pics tyres but want to swap them for Michelins. I'm going to test a 285/35r21. shoot be just enough clearance
