Zero-G wheels have different offsets

haha, all good. Just wanted to save you some trouble and get the photos out there. I know it would’ve been helpful to me a few weeks back and will be helpful to others going forward.
Just to clarify for this thread, the Performance Upgrade brakes hats are 2.5 mm thick, while the standard brake hats are 7.5 mm thick. That difference of 5 mm is why Tesla sells two different 20" Sport wheel designs. The ET35 20" wheels are for cars with the Perf Upgrade brakes while the ET40 wheels are for standard brakes.
The same is true for the new Zero-G wheels, except for some reason they designed the wheels for the Perf Upgrade brakes to be ET34 vice ET35.
This is separate than the counterbore needed on wheels to fit the Performance Update brake and hub combination.

FWIW, even my 18” Aero wheels have the machined step. The hub step issue comes into play with aftermarket wheels.

Yes, each wheel is hand carved by Mexican artisans.

I am still having assess getting anyone at Tesla to agree that there is an issue with me receiving 2x ET34 and 2x ET40. Any suggestions on who to contact?
I would personally keep it, ET 34 in the back and ET 40 in the fronts. It's not too bad considering both are 9 inches wide. So you can still sort of rotate them if you needed.
Sorry to dig up an old thread. Is there any way to completely safely and reliably get the ET40 Zero G wheels to fit properly on a Performance Model 3? I've seen that maybe using spacers but then I've heard potential negatives to spacers. I want these wheels and found a local set for sale but they're ET40 instead of ET34. Thanks!!!
Also, anyone ever get a true weight on these things? I wonder if they weight less than my Ubers.

Thank you.
Can you better define fine? I don’t have deep knowledge of offsets etc. Will they fit tighter in on the car or stick out a little? I can’t imagine they will fit as intended with a different offset otherwise what’s the point of the offset.

They are a half an inch wider in other words 12 mm with 6 mm of that outboard, but pulled back in relative to stock OEM offset 5 mm. So the outer lip of the wheel will appear to sit virtually identically to the original turbine Wheels (a virtually invisible or undetectable 1 mm more outboard). They will still clear the front steering knuckle. For people who like a more flush look, probably won't be ideal because the wheel will appear to be slightly tucked in as the stock wheel is. But if you don't like that you can add a 5 mm spacer which solves the problem or alternatively you can get aftermarket rotors from MPP and that adds the 5 mm back in too. Glad to hear you've got the sport coilovers in the on-deck circle. You're going to love them.Thank you.
