Wheel identification for 2016 Model S P90D

[bmt00]

I just purchased my first Tesla, a 2016 P90D, and I'm having trouble identifying the wheels. They don't match the VIN. They appear to be 21 inch and staggered but I no pictures that I have found match them. Can anyone identify them?

Not OEM Tesla because of the lug holes are between spokes. OEM Turbines are at base of spokes. Would look to eBay for some turbine clones. Do they measure 21"?

I'm not much of an expert here but the rims are 22.5 inches edge to edge. The tires say 21 inches.

Yep your are correct. Did not zoom in on tire spec. Plenty of 21" clones on eBay. Wheel has a distinctive flat edge on spoke and lugs between spokes.

Huh, it only had one owner before me and was corporate owned. Kind of weird they would put aftermarket wheels on. No wonder I couldn't find pics to match. Thanks!

I am not an expert either so I my be wrong. But I tossed the decision of getting 21s around a bunch better I choose the 19s.

Maybe Axis MS?

anyone purchase these "Axis MS" 21" turbine clones from TireRack?

I just noticed this 21" turbine clone on TireRack labeled the "Axis MS": These are significantly less expensive than the Tesla turbines, coming in at $1375 for a set of 4. Everyone seemed to have a pretty positive experience with the 19" Rial Lugano wheels from TireRack, so I was wondering...

Original turbine wheels are not difficult to bend with a car as heavy as a MS. and tire sidewalls as thin as they are. The company probably saw the price of a replacement wheel and just bought a whole new set instead.

That does look pretty close although they don't have the tesla logos like mine.

They make aftermarket caps. Or perhaps that's an original center cap that happens to fit these wheels.

They look like Rial Luganos.

The 19" versions were popular with early Model S owners to replace the 21" Turbines -- before T-Sportline came out with their superior 19" turbine design.

That's a good tip on the Rials. They accept the stock center cap.

yeah that looks like them
