- Do have low profile tires?Just about to take delivery of Model S .. was wondering what strategies Model S owners have employed for the lack of a spare/jack?
I am not a specialist, but I would recommend using a 2 ton hydraulic trolley jack or bottle jack.there are 4 jack points ... so i would assume the car can be jacked
Thanks for the insights ...In looking at owners manual there are 4 jack points ... so i would assume the car can be jacked and a flat tire changed... i prefer to control my own destiny vs waiting for Tesla or AAA ... any recommendations on a donut type spare or is a full size spare required for some reason ?
Here is a suggestion to the next guy who upgrades their wheels.
Please sell the 19"'s as individual wheels - as spares. No need to sell a set.
A lot of us will find it useful, and frankly you'll make some extra $ too.
