Tesla Model S 19-inch UP-RW FF Wheel and Tire Package

Yes, and it is one of the most impactful upgrades you can make for performance driving. Several UP wheels are available in widths that exceed the stock Tesla fitment, allowing a wider tire with a larger contact patch, more cornering grip, and better traction under acceleration. This is especially popular on the Model S Plaid and Model 3 Performance for track days and spirited driving, where the extra grip makes a noticeable difference.

That said, wider is not always better, and the right choice really depends on how you use the car. A wider tire is excellent on a Saturday at the track. On Monday through Friday it adds rolling resistance, which translates directly to reduced range. The heavier the tire and the wider the footprint, the more energy it takes to move the car. For most daily drivers the range impact is real enough to consider.

If your priority is OEM+ aesthetics, a smooth daily ride, or maximizing range, a narrower tire at or near the stock width is the smarter call. Several UP wheel configurations are specifically designed for this, running the same section width as the factory tire while upgrading the wheel itself for reduced weight and improved looks.

The sweet spot for most owners is somewhere in between. A modest width increase over stock, properly matched to the wheel, gives meaningfully better grip without the range and comfort penalties of going very wide. The UP Wheel and Tire Guide at unpluggedperformance.com/tesla-wheel-and-tire-guide covers recommended tire widths for every wheel configuration, and the UP team can help you find the right balance for your specific model and driving style.

Unplugged Performance publishes detailed wheel and tire guides for every Tesla model, covering stock sizes, UP aftermarket wheel fitments, offset, bolt pattern, and recommended tire sizes for each configuration. The guides cover Tesla Model S, Model 3, Model X, Model Y, and Cybertruck across all years and trims. You can find the full guide at unpluggedperformance.com/tesla-wheel-and-tire-guide or navigate directly to your model from the UP website. If you have questions about a specific wheel and tire combination, contact UP at info@unpluggedperformance.com or call +1 (213) 493-6323.

It depends on the wheel you choose, and the answer is more straightforward than most people expect.

Some UP wheels are designed as direct OEM replacements at the same diameter and width as the factory wheel. In those cases, your existing tire size carries over without any changes. For example, a UP wheel in 19-inch for the Model Y at the same width as the factory Gemini runs the same 255/45R19 tire your car already uses.

Where tire sizes do change is when you move to a different wheel diameter or width. If you go from a 19-inch to a 20-inch wheel, the tire needs a lower profile sidewall to keep the overall diameter close to stock. This matters for two reasons: speedometer accuracy and clearance. A tire that is too tall on a larger wheel will read slower than your actual speed and can cause rubbing issues. A tire that is too short will throw off the speedometer the other way and affect how the suspension sits.

Width changes follow the same logic. A wider wheel needs a correspondingly wider tire to seat correctly and perform as intended. Going narrower than recommended leaves the tire unsupported at the bead and is never advised.

Every UP wheel listing in the catalog includes the recommended tire size for that specific configuration, and the full breakdown by model, diameter, and width is at unpluggedperformance.com/tesla-wheel-and-tire-guide. If you are unsure, the UP team can confirm the right tire for your exact setup before you order.

The Tesla Model 3 uses 235/45R18 on the standard 18-inch Aero wheel and 235/40R19 on the optional 19-inch Sport wheel. For the 2024 Highland Model 3 Performance, Tesla introduced its first-ever staggered fitment on the 20-inch Warp wheel, running 235/35R20 up front and 275/30R20 in the rear. Earlier Performance Model 3 variants used a squared 235/35R20 setup on all four corners.

If you own a Performance Model 3 with a staggered setup, going squared is a perfectly valid choice and one many UP customers prefer. A matched front and rear tire size gives up nothing in everyday driving performance while unlocking the ability to rotate your tires front to back, which extends tire life considerably over time.

Unplugged Performance offers Model 3 wheels across 18, 19, and 20-inch diameters, and every fitment in the UP catalog works across all Model 3 trims and years. Choosing your diameter is really a matter of what you want from the car. An 18-inch wheel runs a taller sidewall tire, which gives a softer ride, more cushion over rough roads, and a more planted feel. Moving to a 20-inch gives a lower profile tire with a sharper, more performance-oriented look and feel. The right choice depends on how you drive.

Wheel widths in the UP lineup range from 8.5 inches on the UP-RW Road Warrior, which is an excellent daily driving option, all the way up to nearly 11 inches on the wider UP-03 configurations for owners who want maximum contact patch and a more aggressive stance.

Unplugged Performance carries a curated selection of off-road and all-terrain tires fitment-verified for the Tesla Model Y, including BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO3, Yokohama Geolandar, and Falken Wildpeak. Each tire is selected for its ability to handle trail conditions while remaining livable on daily roads, which matters on an EV where ride comfort and range efficiency are always part of the equation.

All off-road tire options are paired with UP’s 18-inch off-road wheel packages, including the UP-03 Beadlock, running a 255/55R18 square fitment for added sidewall height and trail capability. For owners who want to push further, UP’s optional leveling lift kit creates additional clearance for larger tires without compromising the Model Y’s on-road manners.

Every off-road fitment in the UP catalog is clearance-tested at both stock and lifted ride heights so there are no surprises after installation. Professional mounting, balancing, and alignment is available at UP’s service locations in Hawthorne and Fremont.

The Tesla Model Y uses 255/45R19 on the standard 19-inch Gemini wheel and 255/40R20 on the 20-inch Induction wheel. The 2026 Juniper Model Y carries the same tire sizes, fitted with Continental ProContact RX on the 19-inch and Hankook Ion Evo AS on the 20-inch. The Performance Model Y runs a staggered factory setup, with 255/35R21 up front and 275/35R21 in the rear on the 21-inch Uberturbine.

If your Model Y came staggered, you have a smart option worth considering. Unplugged Performance offers squared fitments at the same diameters, meaning all four corners run the same size tire. You give up nothing in daily driving performance and gain the ability to rotate your tires front to back, which significantly extends tire life and reduces long-term costs. Squared fitments are available across 18, 19, 20, and 21-inch UP wheel options.

For off-road and overlanding builds, the UP-03 Beadlock in 18-inch runs a 255/55R18, adding meaningful sidewall for trail use. Wide square fitments in the UP catalog support rear tire widths up to 315mm for owners who want maximum contact patch.

For the full fitment breakdown by wheel model and year, visit unpluggedperformance.com/model-y/wheel-and-tire-guide.

The Tesla Cybertruck runs 285/65R20 from the factory on a 20×9 OEM wheel, fitted with either the Goodyear Wrangler Territory RT or Pirelli Scorpion ATR depending on production date.

Unplugged Performance offers Cybertruck wheel fitments across 18, 20, 22, and 24-inch sizes, each with recommended tire sizes to match.

For 18-inch off-road builds, the UP-03 Beadlock pairs with 285/70R18 tires, while the UP.FIT Forged PD in 18-inch runs 285/75R18 for added sidewall and trail capability.

The 20-inch UP-RW Cyber Road Warrior and CYBRHEX both run 285/65R20, maintaining the factory tire diameter while improving wheel aesthetics and weight. The UP-03 Beadlock in 20-inch runs a 285/60R20.

Moving up to 22 inches, the CYBRHEX supports 285/55R22 or the aggressive 35×12.50R22 fitment for owners who want a wider, more commanding stance.

For 24-inch builds, the CYBRSPOKE and CYBRNOVA both support 295/45R24 for range optimization, 315/45R24 as the standard size, or 35×12.50R24 for a more aggressive look. All Cybertruck wheels share the same 6×139.7 bolt pattern and 84mm center bore.

Installing aftermarket parts does not automatically void your Tesla warranty. Under the Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act (www.sema.org/sema-enews/2011/01/ftc-validates-right-to-install-aftermarket-parts), a manufacturer cannot void your warranty simply because you installed aftermarket parts. Tesla must prove that the aftermarket part caused the specific failure in question to deny a warranty claim. UP recommends retaining all factory parts to allow reverting to stock if needed. 

Wheel spacers are metal rings that are installed between a vehicle’s wheel and the wheel hub (or the mounting surface of the wheel). Their primary function is to increase the distance (or offset) between the wheel and the vehicle’s suspension or fender. Wheel spacers are typically used to achieve a desired stance, improve wheel clearance, or adjust the offset of the wheel for better fitment.

Key Functions of Wheel Spacers:

1. Improve Wheel Fitment:

• Wheel spacers allow a vehicle to run wider or more aggressive wheels that would not otherwise fit without rubbing against the suspension components, fenders, or brakes. By pushing the wheels outward, spacers help achieve the desired stance and prevent interference with the vehicle’s body.

1. Enhance Aesthetic Appearance:

• Many car enthusiasts use wheel spacers to create a more visually appealing stance. Spacers can give the vehicle a wider stance, making it look more aggressive or balanced, which is especially common in performance, off-road, or custom vehicles.

1. Increase Track Width:

• Wheel spacers increase the track width (the distance between the left and right wheels). A wider track improves vehicle stability, handling, and cornering ability, especially at high speeds or during aggressive driving. This is a common modification for sports cars or vehicles that participate in racing.

1. Correct Wheel Offset:

• If a vehicle’s wheels are too tucked in or too far out (due to factory design or aftermarket modifications), wheel spacers can be used to adjust the wheel offset. They help to position the wheels more centrally within the wheel wells or achieve a more desirable offset.

1. Prevent Rubbing:

• In some cases, after lowering a car or adding a suspension modification, the tires might rub against the inner fenders or suspension components. Using a wheel spacer can provide extra clearance to prevent this rubbing and protect the tires and suspension parts.

A forged wheel is a type of wheel made from a solid piece of metal (usually aluminum or magnesium) that is shaped using a high-pressure forging process. The process involves applying extreme heat and pressure to the metal, which results in a wheel that is both strong and lightweight. This is different from a cast wheel, which is made by pouring molten metal into a mold and allowing it to solidify.

How Forged Wheels are Made:

1. Billet Material: A solid block of metal, often referred to as a billet, is heated to a high temperature.
2. Forging Process: The heated billet is then placed into a die and shaped using high-pressure machinery or a hydraulic press. The metal is compressed and shaped into the desired wheel form.
3. Heat Treatment & Finishing: After the forging process, the wheel is heat-treated for additional strength, and it is then machined, polished, and finished to its final appearance.

Advantages of Forged Wheels Over Cast Wheels:

Stronger and More Durable:

• Forged wheels are stronger because the forging process aligns the metal’s grain structure, making it more resistant to cracking or breaking under pressure. This results in a wheel that is better equipped to handle stress, impacts, and high-performance conditions.
• Cast wheels, on the other hand, have a less uniform grain structure due to the molding process, making them more prone to cracks and failure under heavy loads or stress.

Lighter Weight:

• Forged wheels are typically lighter than cast wheels of the same size because they can be made with less material while still maintaining strength. The forging process allows for more precise design, and excess material can be removed in areas where it’s not needed, resulting in a lighter wheel.
• Cast wheels are usually heavier, as the mold often requires more material and is less efficient in terms of weight-saving design.

Improved Performance:

• Because of their strength-to-weight ratio, forged wheels offer better handling, acceleration, and braking performance. The lighter weight reduces rotational mass, which means less energy is required to move the wheel, improving overall performance.
• Cast wheels may not offer the same performance benefits, as their extra weight can reduce acceleration and braking efficiency.

Better Impact Resistance:

• Forged wheels are better at withstanding impacts from potholes or rough terrain due to their superior strength. This makes them ideal for high-performance and off-road vehicles where rugged conditions are common.
• Cast wheels are more likely to crack or bend under such impacts, which makes them less suitable for extreme driving conditions.

Longer Lifespan:

• Forged wheels generally have a longer lifespan because they are more durable and resistant to wear, corrosion, and damage from impacts.
• Cast wheels tend to wear down faster and may require more frequent replacements, especially under harsh driving conditions.

OEM Tesla Lug Nuts and UP Titanium and Aluminum Lugs share identical conical designs to maximize contact between lug nuts and wheels. Other aftermarket lug nuts have a generic conical shape and very little surface area contact between nut and wheel which is potentially dangerous.

Yes, all UP Forged Wheels are designed to fit Tesla OEM TPMS.

Staggered Setup: Involves different wheel sizes on the front and rear axles, typically with a wider wheel in the rear. This is often used for performance or aesthetic purposes.

Square Setup: Uses the same wheel size on all four corners, which allows for tire rotations.

Yes, all UP Forged Wheels come with a warranty. Please visit our Terms and Conditions page for details.

Although it is not necessary, unless suspension modifications are also being installed at the same time, it’s often recommended to get a alignment after installing new wheels, especially if the size, offset, or width of the wheels significantly differs from stock specifications. This helps prevent uneven tire wear and ensures that the vehicle handles properly.

Yes, wheels can impact performance in various ways. Lighter wheels can improve acceleration, braking and range, while heavier wheels can have the opposite effect. Additionally, wider wheels can enhance traction but may affect ride quality and handling, depending on the setup especially when stepping up to a larger diameter wheel and a tire with a smaller height sidewall.

Wheel size is determined by three key measurements: diameter (in inches), width (in inches), and bolt pattern (the number of holes and the distance between them). Additionally, the wheel’s offset and backspacing play a role in fitment. It’s important to check your car’s specifications and use our fitment guide to determine the correct size for your vehicle.
