Built for real-world Tesla life
We created these packages after outfitting many customers who wanted a premium look and a calmer, more planted drive. The 18-inch diameter brings practical sidewall, which helps with ride quality and impact compliance while maintaining crisp response. With square fitments you can rotate tires easily, which supports longer service life and consistent performance over time.
Choose your path
- Select +33 with an all-season tire if your priority is range, comfort, and year-round confidence.
- Select +20 with crossover or all-terrain rubber if you want a tougher stance and the versatility for rougher roads and weekend adventures.
Either way, you get the same forged UP-05 foundation, the same thoughtful compatibility with OEM hardware, and the same high-end finish options.
What you get
- A complete 18-inch UP-05 wheel and tire package tailored to your chosen fitment and tire option.
- Four 18×9 UP-05 forged wheels in your selected finish.
- Your chosen set of four tires matched to the fitment above.
- Wheel design and engineering that reflects our Tesla-first focus, validated by satisfied Model Y owners.
If you are unsure which combination best suits your driving, start with the 18×9 +33 all-season path for an OEM-plus feel. For a bolder look or mixed-surface plans, the 18×9 +20 path with Geolandar or Trail-Terrain options is the easy upgrade. Either selection delivers the distinctive UP-05 design and the confidence of forged quality, purpose-built for Tesla Model Y.

UP-05 or UP-03 for an 18-inch Model Y setup?
They overlap heavily: both forged, both 18×9 in +33 and +20, both offering the same street and all-terrain tire menus. The UP-05 is the Selipanov Y-spoke with signature engraving; the 18-inch UP-03 package is a different spoke design at a similar strength. This is a looks call. Choose the spoke pattern you’d rather see, since the capability is effectively the same.
Can I build a proper off-road Model Y with this wheel?
Yes, the 18-inch UP-05 with the +20 stance and all-terrain rubber is a solid foundation for it. To make it capable off pavement, add clearance and travel with a lift. Our Dirt & Snow coilover kit raises the car up to 2 inches while keeping it civil on the road, and that pairing, tall-sidewall 18s plus real suspension travel, is how you turn a Model Y into a genuine adventure vehicle.
What are the best 18-inch wheels for a Model Y overlanding build?
For adventure duty you want a smaller diameter with lots of sidewall and real strength, which is why an 18 is the go-to. This UP-05 package pairs forged 18×9 wheels with all-terrain tire options like the BFGoodrich Trail-Terrain T/A and Yokohama Geolandar A/T G015, and offers a more aggressive 18×9 +20 stance for extra track width. The taller sidewall soaks up trail hits, and the forged wheel with a 900 kg load rating takes the abuse.
Does the 18-inch UP-05 come with street tires, all-terrains, or both?
Both, and the tread you get follows the fitment you pick. The OEM-plus 18×9 +33 pairs with street-focused rubber: BFGoodrich Elite Force 245/55R18, Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 255/45R18, or Hankook iON Evo AS 235/55R18 for efficient daily use. The bolder 18×9 +20 pairs with all-terrains for gravel and weekend exploring: BFGoodrich Trail-Terrain T/A 235/55R18, Yokohama Geolandar X-CV G057 255/55R18, or Yokohama Geolandar A/T G015 255/55R18.
Who designed the UP-05 and does the wheel carry any signature?
The UP-05 was designed by acclaimed hypercar designer Sasha Selipanov, and each wheel features his signature engraving. The Y-spoke shape is motorsport-inspired but timeless, so it looks at home on a Tesla rather than shouting for attention. It’s forged from 6061-T6 aluminum, so the design and the engineering came from the same place: light where it can be, strong where it must be.
How strong is the 18-inch UP-05 wheel?
It carries a 900 kg per-wheel load rating, nearly 2,000 lb, which is overbuilt for EV duty cycles and family cargo. It’s forged from 6061-T6 aluminum for a light but robust structure, and the barrels are knurled to help keep the tire from slipping on the rim during hard launches, a real benefit with instant EV torque. For a wheel that might see dirt and potholes, that strength margin is the point.
What’s the difference between the +33 and +20 fitments?
Both are square, so both rotate front to rear for even wear. The 18×9 +33 is the OEM-plus street setup that favors range, ride quality, and all-season versatility without drama. The 18×9 +20 pushes the wheel outward for a bolder footprint and extra track width, which suits owners who want more presence or plan light adventure duty. Pick +33 for clean and efficient, +20 for tougher and wider.
Will 18-inch wheels fit over the Model Y Performance brakes?
This package is curated for every Model Y year and trim, and 18-inch fitment can be tight against larger brakes, so confirm your specific trim at checkout before ordering. On standard Model Y brakes the 18×9 clears cleanly. If you run the big Performance brake package, verify clearance with us first. The live product page and our team are the authority on your exact configuration.
Is an 18-inch setup better for range on a Model Y?
Smaller, lighter wheels with more sidewall generally help ride quality and can be kinder to range than heavy large-diameter combos, especially with an efficiency-minded tire. On the +33 fitment, the Hankook iON Evo AS is the EV-focused choice aimed at quiet running and efficiency. If maximum range is the single goal, an aero-focused wheel like the UP-RW FF is worth comparing, but the 18 is a strong all-rounder.
Can I install these myself, and do I need an alignment?
The wheels come as a matched package, so the swap is straightforward: mount, torque, and drive. New wheels on a stock-height car don’t strictly need an alignment, but check it if the car has miles, and definitely align if you’ve lowered or lifted the car. We can handle the fitment in-house if you’re near Los Angeles. A torque recheck after your first drive is smart on any install.
What does the Unplugged Performance product warranty cover?
Unplugged Performance offers a comprehensive warranty on all parts and installations performed by our certified technicians. Warranty coverage applies to defects in materials and workmanship on items including lowering springs, coilovers, big brake kits, brake pads, stainless steel brake lines, shocks, and more. Should any covered part fail under normal use or display premature wear, we will repair or replace it at no additional cost—assuming the component was installed by us or at one of our authorized partners.
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.
Will installing Unplugged Performance parts void my Tesla warranty?
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.
What are the shipping options and times?
Unplugged Performance processes orders quickly, typically within 1–2 business days after placement. For U.S. customers, orders under $50 usually ship via FedEx SmartPost with an estimated delivery time of 2–7 business days. Larger items like body kits or bumpers may ship via freight carriers with curbside delivery; customers will be contacted to schedule a delivery window. International shipping is available to most countries, with shipping costs calculated at checkout. Delivery times abroad vary, generally ranging from 5 to 16 business days depending on destination. Import duties or taxes are the customer’s responsibility. To ensure a smooth shipping experience, provide accurate contact information during checkout.
