Good to know. Also got the matte black. Didn't plan on installing the tires until spring but might have to take it around the block to test the TPMS.

Update - The seller of the Matte Black TPMS is very responsive and called me within a few minutes of sending him a question via Amazon's website. He said the most likely cause of the car not reading the TPMS was the cold weather. When I got the new tires and TPMS installed on my Titan7s yesterday it was cold and rainy - about 35 F outside. When I took the car out for a drive this morning it was about 38 F and I got a TPMS warning saying the sensors were unable to read the tire pressure. He suggested I go back to America's Tire and see if their TPMS tool can detect the sensors and if they did, we would go to the next troubleshooting steps. On my way to America's Tires, I noticed the outside temp had risen to 62 F and the car was able to read the sensors within 1.5 miles !!!
Based on my experience, I can highly recommend the seller of the matte black TPMS. Excellent Customer Service and willing to stand behind their products.
Please share photos when you have them installed! Can’t decide between the satin titanium and techna bronze but I’m sure either would look great!
Waiting until spring to actually put them on the car but here is a mock up.

Very Nice !!! Bronze was my first choice, but unfortunately not available in the 18" size. I ordered a plastidip wheel kit from DipYourCar to change the color from the Satin Titanium....

i'm mainly curious because I intend to use these wheels year round with all seasons. Don't want to run into issues with ice smacking the caliper.
with 245 and lightweight 19s it should be better than 20s but it all comes down to driving style and how much of it is speeds over 65mph. I have seen 238 wh/mi lifetime on 20s stock wheels by a guy in this forum. Also lowering using coilovers helps a bit on efficiency too.
I would buy something other than titan, vs forged or signature wheels. Titan 7 is bit old school they don't customize wheels for Tesla and you end up with bad offset that is same as stock.

I'm happy with my 18" Titan7 T-S5 wheels. They work for me - My main goal was to minimize pothole damage during the 3.5 year road construction project that started. Lots of chunks of road missing and I got tired of swerving around to miss them. The customer service from Tony at Evasive Motorsports was excellent as well..

I dount you gain much range from going from 20" cast to 18" forged wheels but I think the performance is more snappy and certainly the ride is more comfortable. Tires make all the difference for efficiency. Sticky performance tires use more energy then regular tires. I also bought my 18" Titan 7 wheels for increased tire/wheel durability and better ride.
I’ve got this tire size on my ts-5 but haven’t driven on them yet. Im guessing efficiency will decrease due to the slightly wider tire than OEM.
