265/40R20 Fits!

[MikeInFL]

Sick of the stock Goodyears and wanted something a tad wider/taller that also offered more wheel protection. I think this setup works well! (Also, I would not go any wider/taller on these wheels, everything clears, but the tires are close to the knuckle.)

this looks a tad better fitting than the stock 20s

Just so you capture it all here, what are those rims - width and offset? You know others will ask so might as well post it here now. Looks good.

Honestly don’t know all the wheel specs other than they are the OEM 20” wheels.

So I guess the rims are these?

20X9.5J ET45 Induction wheels

Well the next question will be... How is your range compare to stock 255's?... From what I'm reading here, going with wider tires than oem will have significant range loss.

Have not had a chance to compare, but generally speaking going wider/taller increases energy use.

I mean it makes sense, these are only +0.32'' taller then the 21" uberturbines.

There is a thread where someone is trying to test 265/40/21 and 285/40/21. That is more juicy info where it is 1.32" taller than 21" stock

Any difference in ride comfort?

There was an owner on the model y subreddit that was able to successfully mount 245/55/19’s on Geminis. Which roughly translates to 29.4” tire size compared to the stock 28” tire size 255/45/19

thank you very much... certainly give me hope that the 265/40/21s will fit on the front without rub...

His is 28.3" and you are going to 29.3".... I hope yours fit though as I am looking to put a 29" tire on mine. At least we know a slightly taller tire will work.

245/55/19 = 29.6", 265/40/21 = 29.3"

Yes, but he put 20s on... 265/40/20....

The link above is to a reddit post where the guy put on 245/55/19s on the geminis, which are slightly taller than the tire I am trying to fit in the other thread. We are not referencing the 265/40/20.... thanks. a little bit of confusion in here. hope this clears it up.

Let us know the Range implications after you have had them awhile. As well as how much extra debris they throw up.
They look great!

Gotcha, yep, I was confused - since the title was different... so are we now saying that a 29.3" tall tire will fit a Model Y Performance?
