    I was taking a look at the Model Y designer again today and noticed that the image close-up of the 19in Apollo wheel with Gemini cap has a new tire on it. Seems to be a Goodyear Eagle Touring tire, although TireRack says it isn't available in 255/45R19 (even though those are the specs on the tire if you zoom in, including the 104W load index/speed rating): https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Goodyear&tireModel=Eagle+Touring.

    Actually seems like a downgrade in some respects compared to the Continental ProContact RX tires. Is anyone else seeing this on the design webpage?
