New 2020 Model S Performance owner, car has 21" staggered wheels, I hit a major pothole a few nights ago and blew out the front driver side tire and the wheel was bent, I'm filing a claim with the city in hopes they cover since the pothole was reported over 30 days prior to me hitting it
Regardless of this happening I've been looking at downsizing to either 19's or 20's, I've been doing as much research as possible and I think a flow-forged wheel would be much better than any cast wheel, I'm not opposed to a square setup, but wonder if staggered would be better for traction, rotating option would likely net more time out of the tires I'd think.
The wheel I'm looking at is decently priced but I don't like the idea of running hub centric rings or using aftermarket lug nuts, it's the main thing that is stopping me from pulling the trigger and still considering the TSportline Wheels since those two points are non issues.
The Aodhan AFF7's are available in 19x8.5 & 19x9.5 which would allow me to go with a 245/45 and a 265/45 or 275/45, I like the idea of the 45 sidewall compared to the option in 20" square which would be a 20x9 and 255/40/20 all around.
