New wheels arrived!

[Sam1]

Been waiting a bit for these, they forgot to send the center caps so it'll be a bit longer before I mount them. Monoblock 10k ton forged , in stock arachnid specs for under $2k from Jova.

Weight is 26.8 on the fronts, and 28.2 on the rears.

Those are really awesome for that price!!

Do the standard Tesla center caps fit?

Do the standard Tesla center caps fit?

They probably do, I just don't have any. And their center caps are usually made from CNC aluminum, not plastic like the Amazon ones.

They look nice. What are the specs? Looking at it on my phone I can't really tell but did you do any knurling or anti-slip grooving for the tires?

knurled on both beads, 21x10.5 45et, 21x9.5 40et 900kg rating. You could get them lighter at an 800 or 850kg rating, but I wanted 900 so they beefed everything up for me.

Nice Rims! Love the price! I might have to join you.

Absolutely gorgeous! What size tires are you planning to run?

265 /35/21 & 305/30/21 Pirelli from the Porsche Taycan Turbo. The tires are super soft and the rears are way wider. Here's a pic of them compared to the Tesla 295/30/21

Wow! Is 305 the absolute widest you can go without spacers? Crazy that you put 305mm tires on a family sedan!

I don't use spacers, the wheels are cheap enough that if I want to put wider wheels on, I'll just order new wheels with a different offset to fit the tires. I've seen 325's on a plaid before, but they were sticking out a bit.

That's just insane! Thanks for the info. Please post pic of these wheels when you finally get a chance to put them on your car. I think we all love to see them.

Looking good Uncle Sam. Hope the cheap price doesn’t mean any issues. Are they going on your “S” or your “Y”.

S, girlfriend said I am not allowed to mod her Y lol.

There will be no issues. This is my 6th set of wheels I've bought from them and used. Even curbed my first set pretty bad drifting around a corner and it barely scuffed the wheels. Have zero concerns on anything.

 

[Westslope Cutt]

Looking good. I did the same and ordered another set at a little bit higher load rating. Mostly I just needed an excuse to buy another set. I've beaten the hell out of my 17lb 18s over 5,000 miles offroad, and they are flawless.

 

[James Cole]

Please post pics when installed!

What offset did you go with? Were you looking for a flush fitment?

 

[Mohamed Gobara]

Fitment question.

Doesn’t it mean that at 21x10.5 ET45 they will sit further in compared to the stock arachnid wheels which are 21x10.5 ET40.

Someone correct me if im wrong.

The OEM wheels are +45 offset on the 10.5 rears. The fronts are +40 at 9.5

You are correct.

Just realized the 19” Tempest wheels are 19x10.5 ET40 in the rear.

Does that mean the rear 19’s sit more flush to fender than the 21’s ?

The 19" and 21" both have the same offsets.
