Just purchased 19" Tsportline wheels, along with Michelin PS All Season tires for my Performance Model 3. Factory was 20".
Can this swap easily/safely be done at home?
Obviously need the right tools - Will need a proper jack, along with correct attachment/placement. Have a torque wrench to get to the proper setting.
Know that I'd need to change setting in the computer from 20 to 19.
Not having any pulling issues, just am pretty ignorant as to whether there is another step that I'd be missing.
Will really appreciate advice.
@airbob04 Yes totally fine to do at home. Get a breaker bar / big wrench to loosen the lug nuts, don't use a torque wrench for that.
There's just a few basics to get right. Loosen the nuts a little with the tire still making contact with the ground (some weight lifted by the jack but not off the ground). Finish tightening/torquing in the same manner, with the wheel making contact with the ground (preferably not full weight on the ground).
Tighten in a back-and-forth pattern, generally good practice for anything (not just lug nuts holding a car wheel).
Do the swap on a level surface. Do what you can to make sure the car won't roll - parking brake at a minimum (and then keep that other rear wheel on the ground!).
If the car is just up on a jack don't get under it! Assume it could fall down or start rolling at any moment, make sure you won't get crushed if that happens.
This is all assuming your tires are already mounted and balanced on the wheels, with the correct TPMS sensors for your car (assuming you want TPMS). If not, take it to a tire shop for mounting and balancing!
Most important: When changing wheels for the seasons the slow way, with just a spare kit and a torque wrench, have an appropriate seasonal beer on hand.
