Kudos to you for doing this. That's a hell of a swap that I never thought I'd see on a tesla.
depends on if you have a specific class you want to run. If just HPDE without restriction, 18x9.5 +35 will fit without modification. If are lowered, has additional negative camber (-2.7 or lower in front and -2.5 in rear), you should be able to run 18x10.5 +25.

Myself and most of the guys I know are running some sort of Konig wheel that are not hub centric for our cars. As long as you properly tighten your lugnuts you should be fine. If you feel you need to be hub centric you can always use a hub ring, but I think its more trouble than its worth. They tend to get stuck easily.
If you do run hub centering rings, make sure they aren't plastic or they will get ruined from the brake heat!
@TacoSteve how long do your Yokohama A052 275/40r18 last on the track?
How many miles of track time?

The A052 is probably one of the worst in terms of wear. I get 4 good days out it at most, and that's only doing 2-3 hotlaps per session in a 4 session day. It is definitely not the tire to chose if you are not already pushing the limits of the car. @Ren.OG what is your current track experience? Feel free to PM me if you'd like.
Have to disagree with most of statements about a052. That is brilliant tyre. Actually it is almost slick which works perfectly on wet and dry, does not need warm up equipment. I can not beat a052 time on hankook medium, Michelin soft and medium compaunds.
It last longer than ANY slick, being on same territory by grip.
What kills a052?
- Overinflating, overheating, angles misalignment, driver's agression.
Learn how to use it the most effective way and you will love it.
My 1st set was burn for 1 stage of TimeAttack (less than 100 km). My second got 400km track only usage and still has 60-80% tread on it
Dare to say - it works untill you start to see the cord!

Unless you have MPP.R BBK. I've used the plastic rings many times without issues.
No need for hub centric wheels as long as you torque down the wheel in star pattern. I've done it with Konig, WedsSport, Volks, generic flow forms.
I guess depends on the autox course. I was just referring to my experience on various tracks that has sufficient straights to cool off the brakes.do you run Hoosiers?
my rings melted to my hubs in an autocross Enduro
I got the chance to race a Model S Plaid the other day. Here is a video for those of you that want to see how it compares to a Model 3 Performance. We did 3 passes but I got a little excited on the first one and dropped a couple F-bombs. So if you don't want to hear that skip to the 1 min mark of the video and watch the 2nd and 3rd passes.
