Product Details
Lightweight 6061 Forged Aluminum UP-04 Wheels
Manufactured from 6061 forged aluminum using the highly sought-after forging process, the UP-04 achieves an excellent strength-to-weight ratio, offering both durability and lightweight performance. This precise engineering not only supports the quick acceleration of your Tesla Model Y but also enhances weight savings due to the lightweight nature of 6061 aluminum. Less weight leads to improved acceleration and braking, allowing you to gain confidence in handling the demanding road conditions.
Sharp, Angular Spokes and Webbed Contours for a Standout Look
The UP-04 Forged Wheel is designed with aggressive, angular lines radiating from the center giving the illusion of straight spokes. While this design enhances the wheel’s visual appeal, it’s design represents the ethos of Unplugged Performance: function. The intricate stepped machining on each spoke contributes to reduction of total car weight.
Experience Maximum Efficiency and Performance with UP-04 Wheels
As the trusted Tesla aftermarket performance company, our dedication drives us to on occasion (read: always) to over engineer our products. We constructed the UP-04 to minimize unsprung weight directly improving acceleration, braking, and energy efficiency. How, you may ask? Well it’s a combination of using the forged aluminum, designing spokes that are straight, bracing with center buttressing, and stepped machining to remove excess material in areas that serve no purpose but to add unnecessary weight. The end result translates to a wheel set that will perform at its peak and deliver an exhilarating driving experience that guarantees to maximize your love for driving your Model Y.
Wheels Optimized for Superior Tesla Performance
Performance is top of mind with all UP products, including UP Forged wheels. We’ve even incorporated knurled bead seats in to our wheels to address the risk of tire slippage during high-torque acceleration or sudden braking. These small, uniform lines run along the edges of the wheel where the tire meet the rim. Just like teeth biting down firmly to hold onto something, the textured bead seat creates a secure “bite” between the tire and wheel. This ensures your tires stay locked in place no matter the intensity and driving conditions you take it through. The UP-04 design has also undergone a series of simulation testing to allow our engineers to identify potential stress points by replicating real-world conditions. Trust that you have a final product that can handle the performance demands, extreme acceleration, braking and driving dynamics of your Model Y.
A Perfect Fit
All UP Forged wheels are designed and engineered specifically for Tesla’s, and the UP-04 is no exception. This means that the UP-04’s size, fitment, lug pattern and seat, center bore all make it perfectly adaptable to Teslas to ensure a perfect fitment capable of utilizing factory lug nuts, center caps, TPMS sensors, and even tires in some applications and ensure your Tesla Model Y is smooth, whobble-free to keep NVH low, and does so without the need for wheel spacers.
Wheels Tailored to Your Individual Driving Style
We offer a range of wheel fitment options designed to meet your driving goals. Whether you’re looking for improved handling with a square setup or enhanced range efficiency with a squared wheel fitment, there’s a wheelset for you. Looking for an aggressive stance? A staggered setup is the perfect choice.
Not sure which fitment is best for your Tesla Model Y? Our expert team is here to help you find the ideal wheel setup for your vehicle. Get in touch with us for a free consultation at info@unpluggedperformance.com
Wheel Finishes
Available in 4 color finishes: Satin Black, Gloss Black Satin Titanium, Satin Bronze, the UP-04 Forged Wheel lets you add style to your Tesla Model Y.
Whether you’re a performance enthusiast looking for the ultimate upgrade or a driver focused on aesthetics, the UP-04 Forged wheel delivers unmatched benefits compared to other aftermarket options.

How is a forged UP-04 different from a flow-formed wheel?
Forging presses a solid aluminum billet under high pressure so the grain follows the wheel shape, generally yielding more strength per pound than flow-forming, which stretches a cast barrel. That is why forged wheels like the UP-04 and its sibling the UP-02 tend to be the choice for owners who want both light weight and track durability. Flow-formed wheels can cost less, so the decision is strength and weight versus price.
How much do the UP-04 wheels cost?
Pricing runs from $973.75 to $1,895.00 depending on the size and finish you select. Larger diameters and widebody specs sit at the upper end of that range. Because this is a configurable wheel, confirm the price for your exact size and finish combination before you order.
What is the knurled bead seat on the UP-04 for?
It stops the tire from slipping on the rim. Knurled bead seats are small uniform ridges along the wheel edge where the tire bead sits, and they bite into the bead like teeth to lock it in place during high-torque acceleration or hard braking. On an instant-torque EV like the Model Y, that grip matters. The UP-04 design was also run through simulation testing to find and reinforce stress points before production.
What makes the UP-04 forged wheel different from a typical aftermarket Model Y wheel?
Its construction and its geometry. The UP-04 is forged from 6061-T6 aluminum for an excellent strength-to-weight ratio, then styled with sharp angular spokes, stepped machining, and reinforced center buttressing. The stepped machining removes material where it adds nothing structural, cutting weight without weakening the wheel. So the aggressive look is a byproduct of the engineering rather than pure styling. If you prefer a softer turbine-inspired face, the UP-02 forged wheel is the calmer sibling. It lowers unsprung weight and sharpens how the Model Y accelerates and stops.
Does a lighter forged wheel like the UP-04 actually improve performance?
Yes. Reducing unsprung and rotating mass directly helps acceleration and braking, plus energy efficiency, because the motors and brakes have less mass to spin up and slow down. The UP-04 gets there through forged aluminum, weight-optimized spoke shaping, center buttressing, and stepped machining. Weights start from 19.1 lb depending on size. It is a measurable benefit on a heavy EV, a real gain you feel most in stop-and-go driving.
