Aftermarket Wheels on Model 3

[weaksquad]

I see a lot of people going with a staggered setup here vs a square setup. With this being a AWD platform is there a reason for the staggered? Is it just looks? Filling out the rear? Seems like a square setup would be the way to go for tire rotations and such.

I wanted square specifically so I can cross rotate them without running into a situation of buying two tires at a time.

Yes it’s for looks. The rear wheels of the model 3 can be tucked after lowering. Spacer options are not ideal. So a staggered setup is chosen frequently but it has its own drawbacks. I toyed with it but stayed square.

@DVM17 I think those wheels look great with the chrome trim, I wouldn't black out the trim now. Just my preference.

Agreed....but spacers will look good...

What are the specs you got?

 

[WalRuss]

Got my new wheels fitted.
Rotiform KPS.
8.5 x 20 ET35
10 x 20 ET35

235/35R20 & 265/30R20

Looks great! I also have a white 3 and have been eyeballing the KPS as well. Thinking of going with a 20 x 9.5 et30 square setup if I can ever find an example of this setup on a car to see how it looks. Thanks for posting - I know I like this combo now.

Anyone in here running a 20” x 9.5” et30 square setup on a lowered 3? I’ve tried searching for pics, but not much exists out there. Mostly worried about front end poke Pics appreciated…

New to the Tesla game. Guess I should have done a bit more research before. I have Titan 7 ts5 19x9 square set up with 255/35 Continental dws06 plus tires. Its lowered on eibach springs. Still want to wheels to be a bit more flushed . Not sure what size spacer to use. What do you guys recommend I do.

This looks amazing. Did you lower the car?

Sorry I actually meant to ask how much did you lower the car. Seems like the perfect amount

Eibach is 1" in the front and 1.4" in the rear

Sorry for all the posts, I also forgot to mention that these wheels are only 20.7lbs. So my 19" 265mm square setup is within 1-2lbs of my aero wheels and tires. Thanks for the kind responses, glad that I'm not the only one that thinks they look great!

Anyone had any issues fitting the TPMS sensors to wheels that aren’t specifically designed to take them, and if so what was your solution?

 

[The_Cable_Guy]

The HF2s are amazing! (I have another brand with the same design though)

I waited 4 days for mine after ordering

I saw a post from systems motorsports doing some order for te37’s as well. Btw weaksquad, didn’t you have a Black TypeR at one point? The name looks familiar.

 

[MrBuin]

Anybody know if this would be an good set up for my Model 3 with PUP
19*9,5'' et36 (open to change)
Japan Racing JR37
265/35/19
Continental Contisportcontact7

Will probably drop the car with 1 inch lowering Eibach pro Springs
would this be any issue, all of the local tire shops recommend 255/35-19 but i do not like stretched look at all as to why i sold the Uberturbin in 235/35/20 20x9
