I try to put mine on December 1 and off on March 1. Even though my x-ice 3’s are my favourite winter tires I have ever owned, as a a general rule I hate winter tires.

@SilverGS the wheels shown are the Replika R241 that they are talking about doing a group buy for.
They have sizes and widths that fit Model S.
As far as I know the wheels are only available in silver and black. Google Replika R241.
They are a sister company to Fast Wheels, and Canadian.

Hi Jen @SpenceTire. I did my calipers with you guys a couple of years back and they are looking pretty gnarly right now. Are you guys going to offer anything more long lasting (like powder coating - I know the ad says powder coating but from what I recall that was for wheels only) and if so, at what cost?
Hi Jen@Spence Tire, I am interested in getting a Repika R241 with winter tires. Please keep me in the loop for the group buy.
Hey,
Sorry I am now seeing this but these are the specs:
Flow formed wheels-
18x8.5 5x114.3 +40 64.1mm center bore 21.2lbs.
Available for model 3/S/X/Y
Colours- Satin Black, Space Grey and coming soon Gloss Silver
Thank you
Hi,
Sorry for late response. If you’re still interested please contact me directly. I will post the group buy below.
Thank you
Hi everyone, this is Jen from SpenceTIRE (Toronto, ON).
If anyone is interested in a group buy for the Model 3 18” R241 Replika wheels we are doing a group buy with Nokian Hakkapeliitta R3 winter tires. See attachment. Price includes wheels, TPMS sensors and installation. This way you have 2 sets, cheaper insurance and much safer for winter. Thank you

@SpenceTire - Do you have options for 19" sport rims for SR+. I plan on using the 19" sport rims (upgraded from 18" aero) with winter rubber and then putting the original rubber on new / flashier 19" rims net year?
What's the price if only want the wheels no tires? Or maybe someone would consider splitting a package who may just want tires?

PSA for anybody looking to buy winter wheels + tires, you could get slightly better pricing from PMCtire - no group buy required. I just bought my set from them, including TPMS sensors. I have no associations with PMCtire.
This was my invoice:
TPMS - 4x $207.96
Michelin - X-Ice Snow - P235/45R18 4x $960.00
Replika R241 18x8.5 (gloss silver) [R241-1885-65SN+40C641] 4x $880.00
Total: $2047.96 (plus taxes)

Yeah I've bought Replika wheels from them twice and found them excellent. Fast FedEx delivery too. I would have got the whole package from them for my Y but they don't have the new Bluetooth TPMS.

You can still buy everything except the TPMS from them and then pick up the BLE TPMS sensors from your nearest service center. Still a lot cheaper than buying the winter wheel package from Tesla. Does Tesla even carry a winter wheel package for the Y?
I had to go to the service centre to pick up my tesla summer package in May of this year. I had them lubricate the calipers at the same time so they gave me a loaner (yes, during covid). i'm sure you could also order it and request parts pickup only, and then either change them yourself or hire a traveling tire swap company to do it. mobile service can't deliver the tires, but might be able to install if you can figure out how to request that.
Note - they don't mount the tires on the rims until you show up for your appointment. they pull the tires and rims and sensors from parts stock.
