Q: What tire size should I pair with a specific wheel size?

Wheel + tire sizing is a very common concern, and it can be intimidating to those who are unfamiliar with DOT tire size regulations. Regardless of what wheel and tire size you are considering, it is always best practice to try to keep the outer diameter of the tire close to the factory specification to mitigate any clearance issues, or alerts from the vehicle. Luckily, there are a variety of wheel and tire packages sold by Unplugged Performance that suite a variety of Tesla vehicle platform use cases, ranging from performance, comfort, and or range optimization, so most of the work has been done for you, If you are looking for further support on this topic, please check out our Wheel and Tire guide here: https://unpluggedperformance.com/tesla-wheel-and-tire-guide/

Such an underrated improvement to my car, reducing unsprung weight of each wheel rotating at speed, improves steering, cornering performance and very aesthetically pleasing! It's incredible how much lighter they are from the stock lug nuts, which feel like heavy weights after handling these titanium...

I was tired of replacing my rear tires all the time, between the power and weight of the Model Y P, this camber finally allowed me to dial in my alignment for tire wear and better traction. Will pay for itself with tire savings.
Jorge (. August 23, 2022
Had UP install the HD front bumper with the 11" LEDs. Robust steel construction, makes the truck look more aggressive but lines remain clean. This bumper is what Tesla should have equipped the truck with out of the factory! LEDs are super bright as well. Simply the best looking, best designed,...
Megatron November 19, 2025
Excellent fitment, packaging, and overall product. The stock bar compared to UP's is no comparison. Installed on medium setting and will be changing it to the stiffest this weekend, which is extraordinarily easy to do.
Patrick R. October 06, 2022
I purchased this Unplugged Performance Ascension-R Carbon Fiber Rear Wing for my Model 3 and I'm very happy with it. It not only looks good but it's adjustable and increase downforce as well. I will placing another order soon for my Model Y. Highly recommended! Link:...
f1dinesh August 07, 2023
Best modification I ever did to the Tesla combined it with H&R lowering springs pears very well to fix the suspension quality that is given in stock. Easy Job doesn’t take more than 2 hours.
Pat M. October 09, 2025
My 2021 Model Y performance rode very harsh and bumpy. Like the suspension bottomed out on every pothole. I did the suspension upgrade and it’s a HUGE difference. My car rides great now. It handles the potholes no big deal now. I wish I had done this three years ago when I got the car. Sandy...
stevelakeport September 20, 2024
The Sway Bar was straightforward to install. I noticed an immediate and significant difference in the way the car handles. The sway bars helped eliminate body roll, and the car feels more stable. Blake provided excellent customer service from when I placed my order, all the way to delivery and...
Jeffrey J. October 14, 2022
On the track or not these sway bars make your car feel solid on turns. Immediately I noticed improved corner turns which is great! Highly recommend!
jesus.ruiz.2389 February 02, 2023
Worked great, much less brake fade throughout my runs and lets me have more confidence in my stopping power as the heat builds.
Andrew P. August 23, 2022
Drove on these for 60,000 miles and they were perfect. Never heard any noise from these and it’s such a great and affordable way to increase the performance of your car easily and without a huge financial commitment. Super impressed with what these could do. Highly recommend.
zackfeldstein9 October 10, 2022
Amazing! Bought these along with the Unplugged Performance Competition Track Brake Pads and the results were incredible. Took my 2022 Model 3 Performance to Tesla Corsa with these installed and the difference was instantly noticeable. No more mushy feel when the temps got high. Brakes felt solid....
Tesla S. October 19, 2022
It's incredible to me that my Plaid shipped with such small, inappropriate stock brakes. It was one of the first things I noticed. Unbelievable acceleration, very poor stock braking. Enter Unplugged Performance - I upgraded the fronts to these carbon ceramic much bigger brakes, and then headed to...
mike September 27, 2022
Somewhat similar to the other reviews, these Luxury Coilovers are an amazing product, but may require a little fine tuning. The good news is that if you’re patient, the team at UPP will take great care of you. I initially placed an order for the Lux Coilovers for my 2021 LR MY in October. With...
johnpaul.sansone September 21, 2022
You can see my photos on the site under Steve Guevara to see the detailed work that went into the front fascia unit. I said before that my skeptical wife told me to pick out the car that I wanted, so I liked the TM3 the best as my kids are away at college and now it is my turn to be spoiled. I also...
smgdcw November 16, 2022
Psychologists say that the more you pay for something, the more you like it. Maybe that’s what’s happening here, but the front fenders are now my most cherished upgrade. I love that I can unlock up to a 315mm square setup with a track camber and 305-295mm with a daily camber. I’ll never be...
David S. November 15, 2022
Loved the dual rate feature. A more comfortable ride for daily driving and a stiffer more controlled feel for spirited driving!
Andrew P. August 23, 2022
Love these 6-points Harness in our S Plaid drag race car. Looks so amazing in the car with the UP carbon fiber seats..??
'@EvSmokeATX November 10, 2022
An absolute MUST when thinking about your first upgrade. The Model Y, even in it's Performance Model, has more body roll than you'd like. It was one of my biggest complaints when driving the first few months. After installation, body roll was greatly reduced. Cornering on-ramps and turns with a...
prestonsen November 30, 2022
The ascension front fascia makes my model 3 look so much sportier and aggressive. I’ve had it on my car for over a year now and I love it. The car looks way better than stock. This is how the car should look coming out of the factory.
