All I Want For Christmas Are These Wheels

[gravastar]

The last I heard, Elon says these wheels will be available ‘later this year.’

Has anyone heard any updates on time/cost?

What’s your favorite aftermarket wheel design that’s not the standard Aero or 19” Tesla upgrade?

They’d probably weigh 40 lbs each. lol

Got to keep goodies for the Model 3 ludacrous performance package to boost 2019 earnings

A little too gaudy for my taste, and they do look heavy.

Futuristic looking though!

Looks hard to clean.

Looks hard to clean.

M3 produces hardly any break dust...so they may be tolerable

20" arachnids like those for the Model S.

My understanding is the arachnids will not fit the model 3. Is that a true statement?

Correct. Different bolt pattern.

I'll take a set of these. I was watching a video last night on Jay's garage on Koenigsegg's their new no transmission car. These wheels are about 13 lbs. each.

When they first unveiled the Model 3, I was in love with those rims, but now since purchasing my Model 3 I just don't think they would be as aesthetically appealing.

No model S wheel fits the Model 3- different bolt pattern

I want those in black!

True but I want the bolt pattern and size changed to they’d fit the Model 3.

Be careful when purchasing aftermarket wheels. The torque that a Tesla produces require a pretty stout wheel.

Huh?

 

[TT97]

Huh?

May not be "hardly any" but EVs produce considerably less brake (a/k/a break) dust due to Regenerative Braking.

I am going to + 1 million on this one.

Pre-being an owner a longing after a Tesla, the Arachnid just tilted my lust level when they came out.

On top of being extremely beautiful, I later learned that these were forged and really light.

I am normally a frugal(ish) person and would never consider 20" wheels but I would do it in a heartbeat if there was Model 3 bolt-patterned Arachnind rims in any size...

These concept turbines are my preferred choice. I'll unveil the next best option once i buy & install them ;-)
