looks like that was done by mobile service? I just scheduled my install and would love to have it done at my house.

Congrats! They look fantastic. And kudos to you getting the mobile installation. I'd love for the same, that way I wouldn't have to try and figure out transporting my old wheels back home (I ordered tire totes recently from Amazon, as Tesla doesn't seem to sell them anymore, but as a non-essential item it won't be delivered for a couple weeks yet, and my Zero G wheels are due to go on this week).

Let's see what they look like on top of the PUP brakes (I'm due to have mine installed on Thursday; we'll see if they can source all the parts in time)
I used totes, but you can always take 4 large glad trash bags with you. All 4 wheels will fit in the Model 3 with the back seats folded down.
I transported a mounted set of 18"s with a moving blanket and the seats folded down. I had to adjust a little to get both rear doors to close, so larger wheels might require a little more finesse.

Here ya go
Tesla will even give you wheels and bag/load them in the car for you if you do regular service center.
The photos are really tiny, can you post a higher resolution copy? Thx!

@ryanjm,
Would love some photos after mounting! Want to see how these look on MCRP3D+.

Looks awesome @kbecks13, congrats!
And to @stonelance and @Skione65 I too am eager to see these on a (and in particular my) red P3D+. My appointment is no longer today (Thursday) as SF needed to order the performance offset version of the wheels for me. Hopefully it won’t be long — and I hope you both get yours soon as well!

In need of a shrinking gun to zap a plaid with.
I’m noticing a trend that Tesla hates exposed lugnuts. Anyone have a shot of the backside of the lugnut covers?

excuse me if I’ve missed this,
are these essentially same weight
as PUP OEM 20” w/michelin PS4’s?

Getting my referrals installed next week - have a standard AWD. Hope these don't look awkward....
It appears they are roughly the same weight as the OEM 20" but they are slightly wider. They originally were supposed to be forged but Tesla dropped that wording a few months ago so they almost certainly are not actually forged.

Having a hard time deciding if I should keep the referrals vs the standard grey OEM performance 20"s. Any thoughts one way or the other why either is better? What about curb rash? Does one have a wider lip that would make it more prone to rash?
