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

[Xenoilphobe]

staggered 19" in R10

Let's assume 8.5 front and 9.5 rear in 19" for staggered OK?

 

[outdoors]

Changed to other. Not really wanting to go to the staggered world. Happily would take 19s wider or 19s aero.

Confirmed that 19 X 9 with +35 ET fit fine

My Model 3 with New Wheels

Why on earth are they going to cost about $600 more than any other make they have now?

show me the link to the Tesla spec Mono Block Forged wheel in 19 x 9 with +35 ET and 64.1 center bore please - I've been looking.. forever. Titan 7 doesn't make them yet... I know because I have several threads going with their factory GM...

Also I high sided the estimate until we pick the wheel size, right now 19 x 8.5 or 19 x 9 seem to be the most popular...

 

[AnarchyEOD]

I’m just wondering, I’m sorry if you’re offended.

Not offended at all - I was hoping you found something better - so we have some competition! Trying to learn from you...

I’ll look into it, but I’m digging those rims in black. It’ll fit the design I’m going for perfectly.

What color car do are you getting? I have a black on black setup on my current Model S and love it.

Yeah! 19" staggered set for better handling, less jarring ride (compared to 20") and less expensive tires (to 20"). So count me in!

Btw, the Vossen HF2 I was really hot for, one in at 27 lbs each!!

Yeah that is excessively heavy -

Staggered setup would be 19 x 8.5 front with +35 ET and 19 x 9.5 rear with +45 ET

What would you like? This is the purpose of the poll, if you have a desired offset and staggered setup, post it. We may end up with several options.

I actually like the tr10
9 wide +30 front and 10 wide +40 rear (or 10.5 wide +42 rear). 19 or 20, def not 18, still haven’t really settle on this myself, lol

Ok - let me confirm fitment with my tire guy, these seem to be pushing the limits, but I could be wrong.

Front: 19 x 9 + 30 ET
Rear: 19 x 10 +40 ET

I’m picking my White dual motor non-p text Wednesday. I’m headed in the stormtrooper direction. I love white with black accents.

 

[Xenoilphobe]

My first P85 was white and I did the same thing! The black wheels make the car look bad azzz... my wife's white 90D has PVD black chrome wheels on it now!! It will look great!

 

[AnarchyEOD]

Like I said in that other thread. I got the Aeros because I know at some point I’m going to swap them out. Saved that $1500 to go towards something else later on.

Extremely wise strategy - same as mine..

TMCer's
I have been in dialog with Titan 7 Forged Wheels on a product made just for the Model 3 and would like to do a poll to gauge interest. I don't work for them and don't get any benefit, besides getting a high quality mono-block forged wheel at a reasonable price made specifically for the Model 3.

For those who are not familiar with mono-block forged wheels they provide SIGNIFICANT benefits to EV owners by
reducing unsprung weigh, improved performance in all areas including acceleration, braking, cornering, less strain on drivetrain, there will be improved miles per charge. It’s already been tested (by Titan for special project for an unnamed customer). Additionally Mono-block forged wheels are stronger per pound than any other manufacturing technology at this price point. The only product stronger per pound is carbon fiber, but those are currently 7 X the price of these wheels and considered a bespoke product at this point.


Retail price would be ~ $2400 for four and the weight would be ~ 20lbs per wheel in stock Model 3 size of 19 X 8.5 +40 ET. with 64.1 center bore with an ET 40 (same specs as the stock 19 inch wheel). The poll will determine which size I provide to Eddie Lee - the GM for Titan Wheels.


Color will be Satin Titanium color with machined inner spoke details "Forged"

Hoorah for leading this group buy for Titan T-S5 forged wheels
$2400 US is a good retail price.
Perhaps with 10+ orders, the group buy price could be further reduced to $2200!

I second the larger wheel size
Front : 19" x 9" +38
Rear : 19" x 10" or 19" x 10.5" +45

Not sure on the offset or the tire sizes.

 

[jdmasters]

I think the 19" staggered would interest me. I got the aeros for winter/trips and looking for something to hold the summer tires.

 

[pandam3]

I vote either 19 or 20 inch staggered.
