We are picking up my wifes model Y performance tomorrow (if it doesn’t get pushed back again) She is not a fan of the wheels so we are looking at this setup,
It’s a the same size and stagger as factory so that‘ll all work out good. The next thing Im interested in doing is putting the 275s that come in the back on the front 9.5” wheels and get some 295s for the back 10.5” wheels. I know this is a taller tire and the speedometer will be off and from reading there is no way to calibrate outside a factory wheel/tire combo. My question is, does this mess with the gearing/ratios between front to back with the stagger and changing tire sizes? This guy did it here,
This will be our first tesla and I’ve never had a staggered setup before either so just making sure this is ok!
Looks like there rear will increase by 1.7%
And the front 2.1%
So there is a difference in change by .4%. I‘m really not sure how tesla handles this, but is this enough to damage anything?
Thanks for the help!
