I made them myself. Blacked out internals, Amber led swap on the DRL.

What are the wheels on the other Model 3 pictured here?I have these in 19" on my car with the aero covers and OEM tires. I get to have the same efficiency as the stock 18" aeros but also fit the BBK.
They look great. Let us know if/when they get to production!
Lugnut recommendations for HRE wheels on the model 3? I know HRE sells sets for $100 which I might pickup, but wondering what others here are using. I don't have the wheels yet so don't know if they are conical, round, flat, etc. Also, I think a closed top might look better than a current open nut design, but am open to suggestions!

More than likely, you'll need conical, but the measurements are 14x1.5. Always best to check with the manufacturer or even the vendor the exact specs of lug nuts you need when it comes to length due to the lug seat thickness.
Beat to death question, but what seems to be the offset for a flush staggered setup? Would like to stay same width maybe one size wider on a 20 PM3 on Unplugged coilovers. Will be running Michelin PS4's on 20 inch TE37S.
So? How was it?
I'm finding it hard to decide between the Pilot Sport All-Season 4 and the CrossClimate+. Both cost roughly the same; I have the hunch that the PS A/S 4 is slightly better in warm weather than the CC+ but the little information I've found is a bit contradictory:
TireRack test data seems to slightly favor the PS A/S 4:
- TireRack test report for Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4
- TireRack test report for Michelin CrossClimate+
- Pilot Sport A/S 4: wear 10, fuel efficiency 9, handling 8, braking 9 and comfort 9.
- Cross Climate +: wear 9, fuel efficiency 9, handling 10, braking 10 and comfort 9.
Also adding to the equation is the recent release of the CrossClimate 2 (successor to the CC+) which is not yet available for Tesla's sizes but could be soon. From their press release:

From the research I did the AS4 is definitely better for handling and braking in anything but heavy snow.
The CCs were better if you want an all season that can handle "real" winter, the AS4s better if you want an all season that can handle maybe light snow but mostly you just live someplace it gets below 40 degrees often enough to make the summer PS4s not a year-rounder.

Hi All,
Have my new Pearl White 2021 M3 LR Awd on order with standard aeros and was looking at having some aftermarket wheels ready for when it arrives. I want to take it straight from dealer to the garage to change the wheels before anything else.
I've managed to go through everyone of the 143 pages on this forum. Took me a few days. Looking at ideas.
As I am based in the UK, a lot of these wheels aren't available to me over here.
Originally I was going to go with Vmr V801 19" staggered.
However I've been offered an opportunity to buy some Niche Essen M147 Wheels with tires for a very inexpensive price.
The only problem is their size.
21" 9.5j Fronts with 255/35 tires ET40
21" 10.5j Rears with 295/25 tires ET40
The stud pattern is 5x114.3, so that's fine. Centre bore will require hub plate.
So can someone here help me figure out if these wheels will fit as I haven't come across any 21" examples on these pages and with the 295/25 rear be OK as max I've seen is 275mm at the back.
Also will the front clear the steering knuckle.
Your help would be most appreciated. Thanks

I've been to the UK. You won't want 21" wheels on your car. YMMV
You're sooo right
However at £600 with brand new tires and mint condition, surely its worth a try

The front tires will likely rub on the knuckles.. You'll need 245/30/21. I have Signature SV305S 21x9 front and 21x11 rear wheels on 245/30/21 and 295/25/21 MPS4S tires lowered on MPP comfort coilovers. Definitely a bumpy ride with very little sidewall.
