Group Buy Poll for Mono-Block Forged Alloy Wheels by Titan 7

@Perry
I honestly dont know. Never done it. What I do know is that more rolling resistance, weight, speed, cold weather, headwind, the heater, the defroster, overweight friends, ski racks, bike racks, and dragging a 30 gallon leaf bag filled with air and it will reduce the range - alot...

Incorrect. An inefficient driver with efficient wheel/tire combination is more efficient than an inefficient driver with inefficient wheels/tires. You may not care, but your energy usage will go up.

I can't get my P85 to use 480w per mile unless I do triple digits...

Not a problem hitting well above that in day to day city driving. BTW this is not a P. It is just a slow poke single motor Model S loaner I got while my M3 is in the service center. The performance S will eat a lot more power than this:


My P3D's consumption is a lot more modest than the S:


Only 54 miles left on a 33% battery so the range on this car is really only 162 miles, far from the advertised 310.

This is why I think it can't get any worse with 265 wide wheels if the efficient 18" Aero wheels are this bad.

18 in staggered so I can slam my 3

Quick update from Titan and Evasive.

Just want to inform you real quick that we added a few sets of 18x8.5 +35
TS-5 on order to better clear the brakes on performance models.

 

[JeffC]

Still want 19 x 9.5 or 10 for track use....

Please ask them to add those on their web site so they can better judge demand.

Exactly what i am looking for as well 19 x 9.5 et 35 or even 32. Evasive wasn't interested in adding this size when I emailed them

I changed my order to the 18 x 8.5 +35 (and plan on using them for summer street) but would also like some wider track wheels. I'd also like 19 x 9.5 +35

We need to get this going soon or I'm going to have to go another route for track.

 

[ElectricGhost]

Not going to buy until 19 x 9.5 either. Not sure the best offset for these but looks like others above have it figured out.

Plan is aeros with OEM all seasons for road trips, fordged 19 x 9.5 for all else. Otherwise I will just put 255 tires on my stock aeros

Would love to see a dark bronze too but a titanium color will do the job

I want the Titan T-S5 18X8.5 +35 in titanium, How do I order with Evasive with the group buy? I went to their website, it shows all the wheels are $500 per unit.

There is a separate tab for the Tesla group buy. 500 is the deposit IIRC? Should be around 1900 total.

I phoned my order in due to shipping issue (Canada)

Can someone who ordered T7 wheels give an update on delivery? Would love to see some pics as well.

 

[EdisonDrvr]

Wheels are not on right now but this is what I have from before. Wheel gap won't change much since overall diameter is the same. 19x9.5 +35mm will not have clearance issue from the inside, but it will have a slight poke unless your car is lowered.

Tire sidewall looks really huge / high profile. Not liking the look.

Are Titan 7s really one piece forged? I heard on another forum that the VS forged are two pieced forged but get welded together and that's why they are cost effective. From my experience if is welded correctly with the right prep and filler it should be as strong as a one piece wheel but I am just curious.

Yeah I seen that video but that doesn't tell me much. The wheels that they show on that video when it gets CNCed and when it gets impact tested doesn't look the two Titan 7 models currently available.

I am 90% ready to pull the trigger on some T-R10s
