Has anyone bought and used Drag DR-83 wheels?

I might have to grab a set of the induction center caps to switch it up sometimes.

Please take pictures and show us if you do.

The center caps that come with the wheels also have the smaller center portion that’s removable and fit the Tesla caps. I had a set of satin black ones with a silver T I was using on my Gemini wheels and I put those on these wheels to see if I liked the look. I might grab the full satin black ones though.

Are those satin black? Tirerack has Flat Black and Satin Graphite. Discounttire.com says nothing fits 2023 MYP, but they own Tirerack so I know I can get at least those. I wish they offered Flat Graphite. My MYP is wrapped flat blue.

I have a 23 MYP Blk/Blk. I'm interested in switching over to dr 83 as well.

After having them for a few more months, any further comments on ride quality, stability when mashing the gas, etc? What color would you get? black or gray?

What do you think about using a lower profile tire? 255/45 or 255/40 or maybe even 255/35?

Thanks.

These wheels are fantastic, they ride nice and stability is solid and the gray is almost a perfect match to the OEM wheels. Will probably get another set for the winter. The efficiency is fantastic and you can rotate your tires with this setup.

Here are the latest stats on these wheels

Have you tried to see if the Uberturbine center caps fit? If not, how visible is the DRAG logo?

 

[WyomingEV]

I have not

Latest data on these wheels.

No regrets about going to an 8.5" wide wheel? Ever notice any lack of traction if you get on it in sport mode?

Going to be getting a set of these shortly in 18" for my MYLR. Did you need new lug nuts or did the existing ones work?

Lots of Summer trips, wheels and tires were fantastic!

You can use the current oem lug nuts you have.

Neat, the weight looks pretty good too!

My concern? I have the same style on my PY and want them (19") for winter wheels on my Plaid X. I believe they come with elongated bolt holes to fit all 4 S3XY models, but that could make the wheels less safe on a 1020 hp vehicle.

No pics, but I got these installed with a set of CC2 last week on my 22 MYLR. So far, it is a huge improvement as far as ride quality is concerned. I had 20" inductions and the ride was so harsh, so was very happy that these helped.

Thanks for posting all the details on these, I just picked up a 24 MYLR last week and already planning to get these when its time for new tires (assuming I have that much patience lol). I opted to go with the 19" due to ride quality as well.. really thought I would be able to convince myself to just change the covers on the Gemini but man do I hate them.. haha

I've been considering these for my winter set, because they have a version for my Model X:
