Vendor T Sportline 19x8.5" TST Wheels For Sale for the Tesla Model S

[GDH]

when will the grey 21" be out?

 

[TSportline]

Thanks for the photos, they help me visualize the wheels a lot better.

Just so I'm clear, I'd order a set of these (the greys), some new center caps from my local SC (and maybe a set of Gorilla 61147CX lug nuts), then take the whole lot down to my local tire place (Discount Tire) and have them pop the tires off the old 19"s, switch everything over (including TPMS sensors), and I'd be done? Anyone know what the typical cost is for that kind of swap out?

We recommend using the factory lug nuts and then black lug nut covers. We sell the complete of lug caps for $50. Typically mount/balance/transfer of TPS sensors is between $100-$200 depending where you go. BTW... We only have 2 sets of grey TST wheels left in stock!

We currently have no plans for a 21" TST wheel.

Also Pete, the service center sells a black TPMS, in addition to the center caps and black lug covers that TSportline mentioned. Here are the part numbers and pricing from Tesla:

Thanks Jake...so the TPMS...I'd assumed I could use the ones I have, does the $500 just make the bit I've arrowed below black, rather than silver?

If so, I think I can live with that, or at least, I wouldn't have even known there was an option until now :-/ !

Why would I need to order another set of lug nuts, out of interest?

Anyway, I just ordered a set (via Teslaccessories), can't wait!

 

[JakeP]

That is correct, that is all that will be black is the stem. The rest of the unit is also black, but that is never visible.

I don't think you need a spare set of lug nuts, as you can simply use the ones that are on your current 19" wheels.

just swap the TPMS and reuse the lug nuts. no need to purchase another set of TPMS and new lug nuts. silver lug nuts look great on grey TST. I have the grey lut nut caps but won't put them on bc I think the silver lug nuts look great on them.

 

[JakeP]

I had read somewhere that there was a reason you shouldn't be swapping the TPMS between wheels, but I cannot remember what it was. That is the only reason I went for a new set.

I may end up not using the black lug caps, either...I have liked the way the silver lugs look on the grey wheels just fine.

I ended up buying a second set of TPMS - I have 2 distinct sets of wheels now - All Season OEM, and Winter; I did not want the headache of having to move the TPMS between both sets after the season.

In theory, I could do the swap at my house now.

We'd love to see pics here.

Using my old tires and TPMS, a local tire place charged me around $200, and I had them also install my Alloy Gators also.

Can you post some more pics when you get the chance?

Dave, in my signature below is a link to a thread about my matte wrap which I added a few pictures with the new wheels recently (post #34).

Yep, my local Discount Tire charged $201 all-in to switch them out yesterday. Love my new grey rotors!

pete8314 -- Would love to see some real-work pics of your grey with grey TSTs!

It's going to be another long 6 months or so until I mount mine.

I need to take some 'proper' photos, but in the meantime if anyone was wondering what the greys look like with the regular (silver) lug nuts and valve stems, here's a quick pic:

 

[IanH88]

I think they look pretty good with the silver lugs

They do, I've no complaints, if anything they compliment the T logo.

I thought I would need the black lug caps but now thats its been a couple of weeks I like the silver look.

 

[ljwobker]

I got an early set of the silver 19's, very happy with the look. Here are some pictures of silver on silver...

Can you email me about availablity for 19" Grey wheels? Thanks, Ryan

 

[KennyB-FLL]

I'm in the process of ordering my Model S. By any chance do you offer for sale the entire package (wheels, tires, center caps, sensors) so that they are just a swap? I'd then use the OEM 19's for winter tire setup when up North.

Thanks

 

[TSportline]

Yes we can sell a complete package. Please call or email us!
