Where to purchase a set of 18” Aero rims in GTA?

[menaknow]

Hi,

Where can I purchase a set of 18” Aero rims in the GTA? I want to get these rims for my winter tires.
I think I’ll be going with different tires than the Tesla package.

Lots of places! Just 1 example: https://www.spencetire.com/model-3.html

Remember that 2021 model 3 have newer bluetooth based sensors, so that means they cannot take aftermarket TPMS, you have to buy from from Tesla. About $100 each (times 4)

And just for more info:
What you are looking for is the replica rims of the 18" aero wheels from Tesla.

Search for / ask for: OEP TL03 wheels, then add in your favourite Winter tire, plus Tesla bluetooth TPMS

Why the replica rims instead of the OEM?
Is the price difference that much more?

Not sure if you were looking for the factory rims from Tesla. In BC you can ask one of the Service Centers to order them for you. They are pretty expensive.

i was looking for factory, but because I wasn’t sure there was a difference in quality.

I went for Tesla rims back in 2019 for our Model 3 because I thought that there could be situations where having 8 identical rims could be handy. Such as if a rim was damaged beyond repair and being inconvenienced while waiting for a replacement rim to arrive from wherever. (So far that scenario has not happened for us.)

I bought my model 3 with the 19” rims. But don’t want them to get damaged in winter hence the 18”.

Plus that 3% efficiency boost in range…lol

You may want to search Fastco EV01+ for your winter rim. This has the same performance/efficiency as aero.

Has anyone gone with OEP TL03 wheels yet? Can't get a call or email back from Tesla Lawrence.. I'd rather go OEM but I think that's their subtle way of telling us to go aftermarket.

anyone no if the OEM and OE+ color matches gloss gunmetal
