Vorsteiner VFF-103 aftermarket 20" wheels

I was looking at this exact set as well. Interested to see the impact in wh/mile efficiency too with a larger staggered tire setup.

Can't comment specifically on the numbers when it comes with kw usage as we haven't tested any personally. I believe the wheels weigh about 24lbs, which is fairly light since these are flow forged.

It looks great. The weight of the wheels won't impact the efficiency very much. Its the width of the tire and the overall better grip that increases rolling resistance and has a much bigger impact on efficiency. I've heard between 235 to 290 Wh/m for a P model, and 320 Wh/mile with a 235 20" Pilot 4S. I can't imagine how much worse it gets at 245/275 tires (maybe 340-350 Wh/mi?). Those are all rough numbers so take them with a grain of salt, but if those are in range of how much it actually draws, you're looking at a full charge range of 225 miles.

Looks amazing though :p

I'd be surprised if it was that bad. My 2013 Model S P85+ with 245/35/21 and 295/30 21 got 320-340 wh / mi.
 
Just ordered these wheels for my upcoming P3D with a staggered setup 20x9 and 20x10.5. They are not available yet but Vorsteiner has just started making them with an availability by Sept/Oct timeframe.

There is a photoshoot of these on M3 here

I have been debating between these, Forgestar and Tsportline wheels for a while now. These are flow forged light weight wheels and pulled the trigger today.


I have these wheels on mine. Put them on 2 days ago. I went with the bronze finish because I think bronze on white looks awesome. I will be doing a chrome delete as well
