I just picked up a used Tesla Model 3 18x8.5 wheel and a used Michelin All Season tire from my local tire shop to keep on hand for a spare tire. Cost me $140 out the door with mounting and balancing (no TPMS). I have AAA so I my just keep it in my garage when I am daily driving. If and when I go for an extended trip from home I will toss it in the hatch with the TESLA Tote bag I ordered. I just need to find a way to secure it so it will become potential hazard if I were to get into an accident. Hopefully I will never need it but it is good insurance to have on hand. I just took a 250 mile round trip beach trip. Knowing that I had a spare tire along with my flat kit and air pump gave me so much peace of mind. I up sized my 21' tires to 265/40 front & 295/40 rear. The spare I am running is 235/60r18 which is approximately 29.1" diameter which closely matches my fronts. I contemplated going with the "Modern Spare" kit but it would have only given me a 27.7” Rolling Diameter and they want $499.99 for it!
Total cost:
Tesla Model 3 wheel ($100) & Used Michelin Tire ($40) =$140
TESLA Tire Tote =$35
