Tire/Wheel Swap Question

[LasVegas2019]

So T-sportline has some great looking wheel and tire packages that come with everything including TPS. If were to buy a package, how do I sync the new TPS to my Y? And as far as swapping, is it something I can do in my garage or do most people take them to a tire shop to swap them out? I dont have a floor jack but I am sure I could rent one for a few hours.

@LasVegas2019, I'm getting a new set of TSportline wheel/tires installed today that include new TPMS sensors. I'll ask them how the syncing occurs and get back to you.

Model Y has different TPMS sensors that M3 has. The last I have heard you will need to reuse the stock MY sensors

Martian Wheels also a good looking wheel for the MY and under $600 a piece

you can never have enough options

Here's a video that might answer your question. Looks like they come good to go and answers your question about the difficulty of doing it yourself. Looks easy if you have the right equipment.

Good thing I saw the video. I thought the TSS rims reduced the weight more, it wasn't that much of a difference of weight but stronger than the Tesla cast wheels

I just pre-ordered the 19" TST Flow Forged wheels (shipping mid-August). To me they look the closest to the Induction wheels while being lighter and a bit smaller for ride comfort/ample tire selections. They weigh ~12 lbs less than the Uberturbines.

Thanks! Very informative. I guess I will wait until Tesla pushes the software ability to choose wheel size.

I believe Tesla can do it OTA for you if you submit a service request. I think other owners have been able to them to update the tires this way.

@LasVegas2019 I had my Uberturbine wheels replaced this morning with TSportline 20" TSS Flow Forged wheel/tire package that includes Tesla TPMS sensors. Although TSportline did the wheel swap, they said the new TPMS sensors will automatically pair with the car and they will auto calibrate since they are made by Tesla. So if you do the swap yourself with Tesla TPMS sensors, you shouldn't have to do anything to get the sensors to work. Just drive around a bit after swapping and they'll auto-pair and calibrate. The new sensors register the pressure in my new tires just fine.

I just pre-ordered the 19" TST Flow Forged wheels (going to get the tires from somewhere else) from them so they won't come with TPMS. Any ideas where I can find the right TPMS to use?

I bought the black version of this 20" set when it was $2300 with free shipping, Tesla Model Y 20

i downgraded from inductions to geminis to get my car sooner and essentially got the geminis as a full backup set for $300. the swap was simple diy since the sensors are included. I did buy a cheap set of Tesla logo center caps because I didn't like the T Sportsline cap...

What about changing the tire/wheel size in the computer to get an accurate range estimate with new wheels?

Here's what I did.
I swapped tires/wheels to 20", and then made an appointment via the app stating:
"I changed wheels/tires to 20" from 21", please change wheel configuration to 20" via OTA software update".
Few days before the "appointment" the service center called me to verify what I wanted done, after that they pushed the Wheel Config change OTA. Done. Range reflected 310 miles at 100% SoC.

You can call the Service Center ahead if you can not wait for them to.

I heard some Service Centers will ask for photo of your wheels - to be sure it's Tesla wheel, since somehow they are not suppose to work on aftermarket parts. They did not ask for a photo of my wheels.

Good Luck!

my Tsportline rims and wheel package came ready to bolt on. Fully balanced, with TPMS. Didn't have to do anything special, just throw them on and drive for a couple miles before they synced and everything was good to go.

I've got the exact same ones, fast shipping and a good product. I'm really happy with them
