Looking for wheel suggestions.

[Krisco65]

Time is almost near to replace the factory Pirellis on MYP.

I am considering going with a full wheel and tire replacement based on how FREAKING heavy the 21" uberturbines are.

Anyone have any suggestions on a lighter wheel that isn't stupid expensive? I will not be doing anything that will require the wheel to be extremely strong (racing etc) so I am purely looking for something that looks good and is lighter than factory for a little better acceleration and range.

I would like to stay with the 21" and staggered setup due to the look, or something close to it.

Thanks.

Look into the Martian MW-03 wheels. Great looking, light, and reasonably priced.

How did you fit a 275 tire onto a 9” wheel?? The stock 9.5” wheel has a 255 and can just barely accommodate 275. This seems odd.

Nice wheel though.

I'm not sure how the OP defines stupid expensive. TSportline runs sales, they are having a spring 10% off sale right now.

For lightweight wheels, rotary forged is probably cheapest. Just make sure the wheels are at least half of the maximum gross axle wheel rating of the front and back (I think Model Y is 3307lbs, so wheels at least 1653lbs weight rating). I went with Aodhan AFF7 in 20x10.5, which are $337 a wheel, 24lbs each, and 1653lbs weight rating.

For acceleration, lightweight is better. For range, narrower is better. We have 10.5" width with all-season tires and can tell that the range is less (had Uberturbines on summer tires). If you have a narrower (9") and more aerodynamic wheel, your range will go up, especially if you have less rolling resistant tires.

Talk about changing the handling and cornering -- each wheel is 28 lbs.

The stock MYP Uberturbines are 64.8 Front and 68.6 Rear

Unsprung weight has a huge effect on any vehicle's acceleration, braking, and cornering abilities.
