The wheel/tire combo is great! No issues period. Easly clean especially with optic-coat on them. Even though I have all season tires on them I only drive on them from March-November during the non snow months in Va Beach.

TSportline TS114 21" Wheels on a Multi-Coat Red Tesla Model S 2.0
Just had these done: Vorsteiner V-FF 103 in carbon graphite finish, with Michelin Sport Pilot 4 S. I went from stock 19's to a staggered more aggressive setup: 20 x 9 (front) and 10.5 (rear). Surprisingly, doesn't seem to ride any stiffer than before. Calipers painted in multi-coat red, to match the car. Lowering springs are next on the list.

Our UP-01s come with removable rim protectors built in. In the event that you curb the wheel, simply pop off and replace.

Very nice!!! I was considering Pilot Sports 4S as well. Will you be able to drive them year-round in Silicon Valley?
Unless it starts snowing
I dunno, I'm from Ohio originally and I never get why people in Cali start freaking out when it starts raining. When I was living in Seattle and there was an unexpected snow storm one year, I saw people abandoning their SUV's by the road, deeming the unsalted roads too dangerous. I was driving a Lotus Elise on UHP tires back then, and I got home in one piece, just gotta use some common sense and gentle throttle control... But yeah, on the Model S with traction control on, the worst you might get is a bit of hydroplaning in heavy rain?

@finiteyoda ive been waiting for someone to throw ps4s onto a Tesla. Can you share your impressions?Unless it starts snowing

@DIL It would be hard to say, because so many things have changed at once: going from a non-staggered 19x8 to a staggered 20x9 and 20x10.5(!!!) and the old Goodyear Eagle's had about 20K miles on them. Stepping up to 20" rims, I was expecting a bit more harshness, but honestly, I didn't notice much difference (I have springs not air, so the car's a bit stiff to begin with). I think the overall feel is a bit "crisper" (which I'd also expect with any new set of tires) than the old worn out ones, and doing some slaloms on the street, it's definitely got grip. I don't notice any more or less road noise than before, occasionally I have some rattles in the cabin, both before and after the change. If you measured it, probably some things have improved with the lighter rims / wider tires / better compound, but with normal daily driving, nothing obvious is hitting me. The PS4's have a fuzzy velvet-like texture on the sidewall, that's fun to touch Cost-wise, not much difference from the Continental or Pirelli options.
In some sense, I suppose the best testament to how well the new PS4's work, is that my new 20's feel about the same as the 19's. Day-to-day, I'm not sacrificing anything by going with the PS4's, and hopefully in those times when I am pushing the car to it's limits, I'm getting a little something extra by going with the Michelin's.

Thanks for sharing.

I just picked up these Forgestar split forks from Josh Park at Kickstart Motorsports. I was looking for something that wasn't too flashy, and maybe something that Tesla might have done themselves, and still be 19".
