Tesla Model Y 18-Inch UP Forged UP-03 Wheel and Tire Package

An 18 with a tall sidewall and the right tread is the answer, and the UP-03 Off Road Spec is built for it: 18×9 ET20 wheels wearing BFGoodrich Trail-Terrain T/A 235/55R18. The ET20 offset widens the track for a planted, stable stance, and the Trail-Terrain tread bites on dirt, gravel, and snow while staying civil on the highway. The taller profile also helps protect against potholes and washboard chatter.

Range Optimized runs 18×9 ET33 on Hankook iON Evo AS 235/55R18 for quiet, efficient highway miles. Street Spec uses 18×9 ET33 with Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 255/45R18 or BFGoodrich Elite Force 245/55R18 for a sportier daily feel. Off Road Spec moves to 18×9 ET20 with BFGoodrich Trail-Terrain T/A 235/55R18 for a wider stance and trail-ready grip. Each ships mounted, balanced, and TPMS-equipped.

Dropping from ET33 to ET20 pushes the wheel outward, which increases track width. A wider track gives the Model Y a more planted stance and extra stability, useful both for looks and for confidence on loose surfaces. Combined with the Trail-Terrain tire’s stronger sidewall and taller profile, it’s a setup that shrugs off rough roads. It reads tougher and it behaves tougher, without ruining highway manners.

Yes, it’s forged from 6061-T6, which keeps strength high and weight low. Off pavement, wheel strength is what stands between you and a bent rim on a hidden rock or a hard pothole, so a forged wheel earns its place on an adventure build. The lower weight also helps the suspension keep the tire planted over rough ground. It’s the same forging that makes the UP-03 a strong street wheel, applied where impacts are bigger.

On standard Model Y brakes the 18×9 fits cleanly, and all specs are compatible with every Model Y, with offsets suited to the platform. The caveat is brake size: 18-inch wheels sit close to larger calipers, so if your car has the Performance brake package, confirm clearance with us before ordering. You choose spec, finish, and tire at checkout, and the set arrives matched to your car and ready to bolt on.

The finish menu spans Satin Titanium, Satin Bronze, Satin Black, and Gloss Black. Satin Bronze and Satin Black tend to suit an adventure or off-road build, while Gloss Black and Satin Titanium lean cleaner and more OEM-plus. The finish is yours to match to the car, and it’s chosen alongside your fitment and tire spec so the whole package lands looking the way you want.

That’s the intent behind it. The Range Optimized spec uses the Hankook iON Evo AS, an EV-minded compound that keeps rolling resistance in check and stays quiet on the highway while still gripping in wet and cooler conditions. The square ET33 fitment rotates front to rear to extend tire life too. It’s the pick for long commutes and road trips where miles per charge and a calm ride matter most.

After installation, schedule an alignment to maximize tire life, and that’s doubly important on a lowered car where geometry has shifted. Rotate square packages regularly, set pressures with a quality gauge, and follow seasonal tire guidance: run dedicated winter tires in severe conditions and avoid freezing temperatures on summer compounds. We can mount, balance, and align in-house if you’re local to Los Angeles.

They’re closely matched: both forged, both 18×9, both offering street and all-terrain tire choices. The UP-03 here is described around three clear specs including a dedicated Off Road Spec, while the 18-inch UP-05 package brings the Selipanov Y-spoke with signature engraving. If you want the explicit off-road-spec framing, this UP-03; if you want the Y-spoke design, the UP-05. Capability is essentially the same.

To turn tall-sidewall 18s into genuine capability, you need clearance and suspension travel. A lift is the key piece: our Trailhead Pro suspension package is built for that kind of adventure duty, and for the biggest clearance there’s an ultra-high-clearance option. Wheels and tires set the foundation, but the suspension is what lets a Model Y actually tackle the terrain the Off Road Spec tire is ready for.

Unplugged Performance offers a comprehensive warranty on all parts and installations performed by our certified technicians.

This warranty is valid for 2 years or 24,000 miles, whichever comes first, excluding consumable products like brake pads, rotors, and tires, starting from the installation date. Coverage extends to labor for warranty repairs when performed by Unplugged Performance or an authorized installer. It does not cover damage resulting from misuse, accidents, off‑road use, improper installation not done by us, or modifications that aren’t factory-approved.

To file a warranty claim, simply contact our service team. We’ll guide you through inspection, shipping (if needed), and repair or replacement logistics. transparencia and top-tier support are what you can expect from Unplugged.

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.
