Browsed through some Roadster pics / threads via google today and found these cool wheels mounted on the Roadster which appear to have been from an auto show. Thread date was 2007 and rear plate is an MFG plate, so Tesla or possibly Yoko borrowing it from Tesla. Curious who makes these rims I want them! Looking at it, it appears to be also marketing the Yokohama Advan tires by the signs surrounding the Roadster. Hence the rim selection I guess. Just looking at them, it appears that the fronts are 17" and rears 18". The fill in all that ugly space that the 16"/17" combo leaves behind unless the car is dropped. The rears also have a slight 'dish' to them which I like, not enough to screw up the handling geometry but enough to give sweet aesthetics and balance to the Roadster's natural sexy lines.
Also the front's look like 205's and the rear's 235 or 245's in width.
Also look how large the mesh screens are in the front/rear of the Roadster. I actually like that larger size, however more crap can work its way in... Rear tail lights appear to be an iteration Tesla was playing with, no red dot / reflector on the inner light.
