Quick question about tires

[TampaP100D2020]

No doubt this has been asked and answered, so apologies in advance.
I have a dechromed blacked out performance S, and after a painful amount of time deciding on tired went the the 19” carbons (tesla stock). Wanted 21s for the cool factor but can’t afford flats during my work day. Question is, if I get after market 20s, can tesla road service provide on site spares like they can 19 and 21s? Haven’t seen this issue answered. Thanks!

Also, am I the only one wondering why tesla doesn’t just put some 20s on their model S?

Good question. As far as I understand Tesla’s “loaner service” for roadside flats involves taking the customer’s own wheel back to the service center for eventual repair and swap back. I doubt they would do that with a customer’s aftermarket set.

Yes, no question tesla repair centers won’t hook you up with a replacement for an after market 20” tire, but can the actual roadside service bring a 20 to put on your care, since tesla model s options from tesla are 19 or 21?

Just tell them you need a Model X tire.

Duh, don’t I feel stupid now. Thanks Geoff, good call.

Instead of aftermarket 20s there are 20” X slipstreams used or take-off available for sale at reasonable prices - just another idea to think about.
