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/

I was not going to get these, as I do not track my car. I love the any chance to control as much about my car as possible. Just one more way to stand out from the crowd. And, I can get my tires to last a reasonable amount of miles.

Tesla Model 3 Ascension Front Fascia System (Front Bumper)
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.
