Hi everyone,
I took delivery of my Model S before the Slipstream replaced the previous wheel version, so I currently have the double spoke wheels. I've been wanting to replace these with a newer set, hopefully something sexier, but I'd really like to stick to the 19" rather than move to the 21" as I've heard the larger wheels take a hit on energy efficiency plus a few other issues.
I'm hoping to use this thread as a means for the experts here to list out the available 19" options, along with any pros/cons, any tips, or other feedback, to help potential upgraders decide on the options available. Maybe even a mention whether the OEM tires can be used on the wheel or if a different size is needed.
So far, I've seen the following mentioned around the forum:
