That looks like how the model Y should have been. Thank you for the pics, I’m sold on this. Much appreciated!

Also it rides much better. Still stiff, but better than the stock 20"s and of course better than the stock 21"s

looks great, i was thinking of doing the same thing, but with 265 40 20 wheels. How do you like the ride of the 45s? how is the range/ spedo?

I am thinking of doing the exact same. Did you end up doing this? If yes, would you recommend it?

yes, loving my model 3 uberturbines on my Model Y. They look and drive great with crossclimate 2 255/45r20 size tires.

Hi, I am considering going the same route. How does the difference in offset (34 vs 45 I believe) between M3 and MY wheels affect fitment on the MY? Are spacers required to place them properly in the wheelwells? Many thanks in advance.

You don’t need spacers. The difference is indistinguishable.

Has anyone tried 255/45/20 in front (M3P 20" Uberturbines) and 265/40/21 (MYP 21" Front 9.5" Uberturbines) in back? Trying to maximize comfort but also not replace both wheels and add a bit of staggering to give rear engine more traction on my MYP.

I've tried the 255/45/20 on my MYP; but square setup. Not sure why you would want to have a 20" rear/21" front, when you can easily do:
255/40/21 on the front and 265/40/21 in the rear. The suspension on the vehicle has a greater impact on ride quality than the tire's sidewall tbo.

I want to do 20" front (M3P Ubers) and 21" back (9" MYP Ubers) based on this video:

. Conceptually it makes sense that swapping suspension will have more impact than changing out tires/wheels. Have you compared increasing tire sidewalls with coil-overs from MPP, Ohlins, or UP?

Thanks for that video clip. I still have my OEM 21" and try it out and report back!

thanks, in the video, for the rears, he is using the OEM rear 9.5" wheel and stock 275/35/21 tires. I want to use the 21" OEM front (9" wheels) with 265/40/21 tires for additional sidewall and rim protection. Just making sure that's what you're thinking. Curious to your take! Thanks!

The OEM rears are 10.5” and the fronts are 9.5” for the 21” uberturbines.

yes, you are correct.

That looks perfect!
