Aftermarket Wheels on Model 3

[SoundBySully]

Not aftermarket wheels but 20mm spacers front, 25mm spacer rear, blox.
most I've seen are 15mm front and 20mm rear. but I think even at 25mm I am still not flushed. but 25mm is the most I would be comfortable with anyway. I can live with this look for a while until I get new wheels

What springs is this lowered with? or coil overs?

What kind of tint is on that car? It's beautiful!! And was the original color silver or white?

Installed 20" / 8.5" gun metal turbine wheels from evwheelsdirect along with pilot sport as/3 tires. Seems to of increased my energy usage by at least 20 percent over the aero wheels. Going from about 240 kwh/m to 300.

They look real good though

Looks goooood. I go back and forth daily on gloss black or gunmetal gray for my wheels on my black 3. Today its in the gunmetal camp. I have an appointment for 4/25 to do them so need to nail it down before then. Your car is in my phone as an example

Still need to log more miles to be certain and I only put 900 miles on the stock 20’s. I believe I was getting low 300’s wh/mile with stock setup. So far with this setup I’m about 308-310 wh/mile. At this point I’d assume the same 5-10 wh/mile increase over the stock 20’s as dfwatt. It’s a bigger contact patch and less aero(open face and more aggressive stance) than the stock 20’s. Weight I don’t think has much effect on highway efficiency as it does around town. If efficiency is a concern stay closer to stock specs(width and offset).

Update: With the increase in temps to the 50-60’s my efficiency has gotten better. I’m seeing 280-290 wh/mile on my 40 mile commute to work...today I hit 274 wh/mile. It’s about 90%highway so I’m pretty happy with that. Looking back I think I was actually getting 290 on the stock 20’s. Will see what happens after the next couple weeks...but at this point I’d say I'm getting same if not better efficiency with this setup!

Just got these Brixton RF7 wheels finally delivered yesterday, after preordering and then expected delivery delayed from Feb till Apr. They weighed a bit heavier then was quoted by Brixton (said ~23 lbs front and ~24 lbs rear) using bathroom scale. Now just waiting for CQuartz to apply ceramic coating on the wheels before mounting tires.


Brixton RF7 in Satin Anthracite finish
20×9 +35 @ 26.2 lbs
20×10.5 +40 @ 27.4 lbs

I ordered the matte black from Vivid Racing 2 weeks ago. They should be getting them in soon. They are selling them for $2100 shipped if you decide to get them. Cheapest price I’ve seen so far.

 

[DrDrew]

JohnC - That’s a fantastic price! Local shop quoted me $3k shipped. Please post pics once you get them. You go staggered 20 x 9 and 20 x 10.5?

Has anyone seen a 22 offset on a 19x9 rear wheel? If I'm doing the math right oem wheels are 40 offset. So if people are running 20mm spacers in the rear doesn't that make the wheels 20 offset? I found some used wheels that i like that was on an acura. Any wheel gurus is appreciated.

That’s pretty aggressive offsets, will look odd and stick out a lot if not lowered
Acura/Honda’s iirc are m12’s normally, if aftermarket could be m14 (if it’s smaller can take it to a shop and drill out like some others have done)

19x9 +22 will almost have the same flushness as mpp's 19x10 +35 here

They will poke out 24.4 mm more than the oem wheels. I would say that’s too much if 20 mm spacers are already flush.

Just put on the Brixton RF7.

Nice. I like it (of course I'm biased). I'll post my red with satin anthracite next week.
