Recommendations on tires?

We are probably going to ditch the Ubers and put on the TSport TST wheels and Michelin Pilot Sport A/S around November when the temp changes. Seems to be a great deal since they come with the $75 each Bluetooth TPMS.

Edit: They changed the wording that now the TPMS do not come with the wheels. We will buy the wheels and these from TireRack. I have heard they are remarkable tires for the price, especially in the winter.

Yup! Me too! Can't stand the 21 Ubers and will sell as soon as my 19" Falcon Y's from TST arrive.

I'm going with a summer set (Michelins) and a separate winter set (Blizzaks or Hakkas if I can find any with a recent manufacture date). Hoping for big improvement in ride quality and a little bump in acceleration

I’m also ditching the Ubers. Now using 20x9 wheel and OEM size Michelin PS4S. For winter I’m running 19x9 wheels and OEM sized Sotozeros.

We also plan to change from our 21in PUP wheels. What kind of price will these fetch when selling do we think? Can you buy the 20" induction wheels from Tesla?

YokohamaADVAN Sport A/S+245 /35 R21 96Y XL BSW
Item #88113
YokohamaADVAN Sport A/S+265 /35 R21 101Y XL BSW
Item #87844
these are the only allseason tires that fit the uber wheels

Apart from the size difference with OEM (probably not too much of an issue), I guess 96Y is too low for the load rating.

load rating is more than enough

take a look at the newly-released Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4, which comes standard on the new Corvette C8 (yes an all-season)- I know this is the tire I'll be getting when the warm season is over (love the PS A/S 3 on my Model 3).. some tire sizes that can work:

front:
255/40ZR21 102Y XL

rear:
265/40ZR21/XL 105Y
275/35ZR21/XL 103Y
285/40ZR21/XL 109Y

there was a 295/35 that appeared a few days ago but is no longer listed- more options will likely show up in the coming months

I have the 21s too. Why are people wanting to change them so bad. I live in Florida so summer tires are fine. Is that the main reason? They are just as efficient as the inductions.

Yes all season is the issue You are good in Florida

Someone posted some data here recently where going down each inch from 21s to 19s you got 7% more efficiency each inch.

Even if that weren't true, some people want squared setups and a little less pricey tire to replace, and maybe more sidewall.

Want More sidewall. Per Tesla the 21s are 10% less efficient than the inductions. Prefer square setup

Someone did a real life test on YouTube comparing the 2 and they were identical

 

[rdb88]

Link to that video? Really curious to see that!

Yep. Ill try to find the video and post it. I think the Inductions got 1 mile better. I was pretty impressed and shocked at the same time.

Edit: Here is the video
