Aftermarket Wheels on Model 3

[Kenriko]

Are these staggered 20? Can we see some rear shots and rear angled shots to see what staggered look like?

No, they are not staggered they are square.

Did you paint those calipers yourself?

Anyone have 19's with +45 Offset on their Model 3?

Seems to me that you'd want to go in the other direction. +45 mm is more offset which would cause the wheels to be tucked in more. I went with +35mm on my set (19×8.5) to move them out just slightly.

I don't quite understand that. Everything I'm seeing online says it's the opposite.

Tsportline-

Figured this might be something you guys know-

How wide a tire could you put on the model 3 without rubbing or anything? 8.5" rim will hold a 255, but is there enough clearance for it both front/back?

For that matter could you get a 265/40-18 on an 18x9 wheel and not run into problems? That's same overall wheel/tire diameter as stock and it'd add a nice amount of useful rubber traction-wise.

@Knightshade We can comfortably say on a Model 3 that is not lowered, a 255 width tire will fit on an 8.5" wheel front and rear.

It's what I already have from my other car. Just wanted to know if anyone else had a +45mm offset so I could get a better idea. I think it should be fine since the factory is +40mm.

Hi tsportline,

Is the 18in wheels shipping soon or still on schedule for July?

 

[Cestevenson]

Nice wheels. What is the brand? It looks like Vossen VFS series.

Yes, VFS-2 in Satin Bronze.

Has anyone gone the Tesla route for their aftermarket 20’s yet? We’ve all seen Franz setup and I’m planning something similar with mine, but I’d love to see them on mounted on a different colored car that’s not lowered.

I just ordered mine yesterday, AWD with the performance package which comes with 20's. Will post pics when I get it.

1. Tesla 20" Sport can only be bought from the online Tesla store.
2. It's not staggered #boo
2. The wheel set has to be delivered & installed at a Service Center. Not sure if labor is a freebie.
3. In addition to the wheel set, the 20" Wheel & Tire package comes with 2 upper fore arm links for the rear suspension.
4. Here's the kicker: Tesla will charge almost 4 hours of labor to install these fore arm links. Pic below. So expect to spend another $400-500 in unforeseen labor charges.

Is #4 true for the AWD option with performance package also?

Is the windshield and back window tinted as well?

The regular AWD doesn't offer a performance package- just the regular choice of 18 or 19 inch wheels. If you want the 20s you have to order it separately and it's as described.

The P offers one, but in that case the 20s come from the factory so the arms would've been put on when the car was built.
