Q: What size tires does the Tesla Model Y use?

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.
