Need to jack my 2020 Model S Performance

Good luck, unless you know a guy I don't think any reputable tire shop would touch that for liability reasons.

They gave me the old tire. Plan is to have a local shop fix tire and I will find a used Sonic Carbon Slipstream Wheel and mount fixed tire on it so I will have a spare "just in case".

Again, this is not repairable. Very bad idea that endangers you and everyone on the road around you. Even as a “just in case” backup. Not trying to knock you - just being honest.

Thank you. After I removed the metal piece they could not get the tire to leak. Bubble test.

Here is what I did. I put a new tire on wheel at the SC and it costs $330 this morning. They did a wonderful job of not marking the rim. Toke them a whole 30 mins.

Thank you for all replies.

The cost is for tire and mounting, great! Same pilot tire, what are the tire numbers. Can't see from your pic above.

Sure, it doesn’t leak and that’s fine. The problem is that if you drive on it you can have a sidewall blowout. If that happens it won’t be a little pressure lost slowly. It would be a sudden burst with probable loss of control.
