Best Deal I have found for winter tires

[thesteve]

Is that price for 18's or 19's? Your link doesn't work.

It's for 18s. You're probably right, $325 is pretty pricey for 18s, should be able to get something $250ish range to make it $1k all together.

Kal Tire's retail price is $290 for the R3's. So you can most definitely do better than $325.

I’m leaning this way too. Use the Aero 18’s and stock tires for the fall, swap on winter tires for the winter, and shop for new summer rims/tires for the spring. Thinking 19’s... but 20’s look sweet too.

This is along the lines of what I'm going to do. Picking up my Model 3 with 18" aeros in a few weeks. I'm going to get some Hakka R3 tires put on the factory wheels for winter driving, then in the summer take my factory 18" Michelin tires and put them on a set of these wheels:
EVT Wheel for Tesla Model 3 (18" FULL SET $996.00)

They look really nice. Pity they're in the US - heading towards $1600 once I add shipping to Ottawa and convert to CAD. Duty could add further pain too. Seems a bit pricey?

Yeah that's the main downside - $996 USD + $164 USD shipping, plus tax and possible duty. But they do look good and they work with the factory tires, so I wouldn't need to try to sell them and buy new tires.

@mknox mentioned that it varies by tire.
Real world: I just got winter tires for my S
245/45R19 Nokian Hakka R3 winter - Tires only, as I have rims,TPMS
Quoted $327.91
With Club discount: $278.73

So, 15% in this instance. About $50/tire plus HST = $222.29. Works for me

Are you sure it's $50 per tire? Or $222 per tire?

He's saving $50/tire which comes up to $222.29 in savings after you factor in HST.

AH! Makes a lot more sense now.

I called Tesla Oakville service this morning and they quoted me $250 for each rim (no rubber). This is for M3 18" Aero. They don't have any in stock but he mentioned a shipment coming in a few weeks. He also mentioned they would NOT install the tire on the rim.

I just ordered a set of rims from a Vancouver SC and they also quoted me $250 for each rim, $38 for each aero wheel hubcap, and $85 for each TPMS sensor.

I pre-ordered Hakka R3 with rims and Telsa TPMS in Ottawa $2450 with HST, mounted balanced installed

 

[sakimano]

I've got good news and bad news. I stopped by my local Service Center to ask that very question. The good news is, yes you can order rims separately. The bad news is they couldn't give me a price because there is a pending price increase and Tesla hasn't announced Canadian pricing yet. My gut is that Tesla rims will be very expensive compared to aftermarket.

Lots of 3 owners get rid of their aero wheels immediately, For peanuts. Buy some on the forum classifieds .

What rims did you get? Did you buy the TPMS from the SC?

Here are details of Tesla Ottawa Group Buy

 

[Darthbenji]

Is anyone setting one up in the Gta?

 

[oakvillemike]

So not many are going for Tesla package

I’m going with em. I like the idea of getting a range boost to offset the winter loss and having Tesla as recourse in case something happens. They don’t seem to be the best tires but have decent reviews and I’m willing to give em a shot. Oh and yes, less hassle as said previously.

If there is enough interest we can try speaking with Kal Tire and seeing if they would give us more discount than the current discount given my being a member of the Tesla Owners Club.

Hoping to get my car by the end of the month / beginning of October with 19” and I am planning on 18” winter wheels and tires. Was going to default for the “easy” solution of the 18” Tesla winter package but would be interested in participating in another group buy option.

 

[Liquidmetal101]

Has anyone here had their tires/rims installed at Costco? Any issues with them putting teslas on their lifts.

 

[RedM3]

+1 for potential group buy from Kal Tire

Looking at the R3s and putting them on the factory rims.

Exact same thoughts for me. Interested in group buy and looking to put the R3s on the factory rims
