Yea, I figured that was the obvious answer but I wasn't sure if anyone had used them with spacers as spares or something if they were difficult or not cost effective to sell. Not even sure that's possible but thought I saw a thread on it somewhere.Sell them?Talking about that, I'll probably, hopefully, maybe, will get my CCB's in december.

Nobody does. They'll show up when they show up, or Tesla could abandon the whole thing.

That active spoiler looked so cool I can't even...!
The rears are +40, not sure what the fronts are. I would assume +35 to be a similar change as the rears since both add 1/2" width. But don't quote me on that.
Here's a pic someone else posted from the rear - also not they are cast, not forged.
Thanks, couldnt find the stapmping at first so didnt know if they were or not. Took a closer look and was able to find the fronts. ET 40 as well

Awesome sleuthing 
They go from sourcing top shelf brake components from Surface Transforms, AP Racing and go hard in the paint with tire selection, yet cheap out on Chinese wheels. At least offer SAI outta Taiwan?
Btw, they’re likely forged unless mendacity prevails within Tesla marketing.
CITIC Dicastal Co., Ltd. —the world's largest manufacturer of aluminum wheels for the auto industry, which was founded in 1988 and is based in Qin Huangdao City, China.
P.S. Would not be shocked if same
company supplied aluminum forgings for all the non-motorosort budget brands out there like Signature, Vossen, TSportline etc.

I measured the rear wheel by itself at 29.2lbs, not the 33lbs posted here earlier.
They’re def forged and properly load rated for the race compound tires.
Not all forged wheels are created equal. Just buying based on wheel weight alone is troglodyte level rationale.
While we're talking about the wheels, for those who aren't planning to keep separate track and daily sets, what are people replacing the Goodyear's with once they wear out? I saw many like PS4S's, but wondering if some of the homologated versions would work better than the generics on the plaid. Saw they have different compounds (at least per this
).
