Hi all:
Brand new to this board as well as a virgin Tesla owner. Just had my 2016 Model S 90D delivered last night. I live in the Chicago area and have been haunted by low profile tires in my past life as a Mercedes owner. With that said, I want to convert to the 19" "normal" profile tires. Wife is also complaining of the noise and hoping the 19's will give some relief so I can get back on her good side after spending a lot of coin. After doing some reading on this, it sounds like the Pirelli P7's are the best option. Now I have to deal with finding new 19" Cyclone (I like the gray/black colors) rims and selling my old 21" tires/rims.
Best way to accomplish this? Any idea of the market value of the 21" set? Also the best place to look for the 19" rims? I am seeing stuff on Ebay, but not sure they are legit or not. Hoping when it is all said and done, I don't have to spend even more than I have already.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Dave
