I'm finally putting together my X, and I'm really interested in the MX5 22" aftermarket wheels.
One thing, however, is that I can't figure out where to buy them: there seem to be at least two unaffiliated sites selling identical-looking ‘MX5’ wheels, neither referencing the other, and both claiming to be the originator?
Secondly: Anybody else on these forums happen to have bought a set of these? What did you think about the build-quality, finish, etc? Are you happy with them? (They're pretty expensive, so … I want to know what I'm getting into. Especially if you happen to have chosen the matte-black or gold-finish options.)
Third: Anybody know if Tesla will ship an X *with winter-tires* (that is, the 19" ‘accessory’ wheels you can buy on the accessories site), instead of with the 20" wheels? I want aftermarket tires for my summer driving, and have no reason to own a *third* set of wheels for my Tesla, so … buying two extra sets (Tesla's winter set, and a set of 22" aftermarket rims), for like ≥$10,000, sounds like a huge waste. /=
