Hello DT. I’m picking up my 2023 Model Y LR with 19 inch wheels tomorrow. I’m in Michigan and am needing snow tires. I see you have a Troy, MI location. What are my options for snow tires? Is it better to just get a different set of wheels and tpms or just swap the tires each time? Cost for each option? Also what can do your for storage? Also any tire recommendations?
Thanks!
Hello Discount Tire, I’m the NY metro person that is sad without any DT stores. Question about Tire Rack, I cannot find that you sell Hankook iON EVO 245/45/19. I see other Hankooks but not iON EVOs. Looking for help.
Are the iON evo (summer) tires available in the US yet? Been trying to find them but no luck so far.Congratulations on the new MY, @vnr111! We appreciate you thinking of us for the winter set up.
We offer a wide selection of winter tires and I would say the most convenient way to go is with a dedicated winter wheel and tire package.
Hope you don't mind me sending you a DM to gather some additional details. I'll be happy to look into potential storage solutions as well.
I apologize that you weren't able to find what you are looking for on the TR site. Thank you for taking the time to reach out!
Hankook offers their iON evo A/S and most recently iON evo (summer). Happy to look into this further for you to see what we can do. Hope you don't mind me sending you a DM!

Good Afternoon Discount Tire,
Cool to see your a sponsored vendor here on TMC. I've been looking at getting a set of the GoodYear ElectricDrive Tires for my ModelY. When I put them in the cart on the website I'm given "Installation & Life of Tire Maintenance" and below that I'm offered "Protect my tires with certificates" for an extra charge. They look to offer the same benefits. What am I missing?
Mmm,
Maybe DT can help point me at some choices for my 2023 MYP.
When Tesla changed the rear calipers on the Performance model Y to match the LR Y, at least a few 18" wheels actually fit on the Performance model Y's.
This is proven out by the fact that certain 18" wheels meet requirements supplied by the aftermarket like Martian's MW -03's and T Sportline's offerings.
Unfortunately they are pricey and Not a style that is what look I want.
Trying to stay on a budget here and realize the wheels need to be rated for 1650 lbs. since the model Y is a heavy vehicle.
Have my own touchless rim clamp tire machine and electronic balancer and like to do my own work.
I have been trying to find some reasonably priced 5 spoke 18" x 8"-9" width wheels for winter snow tires to replace my 21" Ubers during winter months. We have pot holes and get lots of snow and ice. I don't want super wide 21" low profile snow tires for winter.
In fact it seems like a really bad choice for winter driving.
IMO a taller side wall narrower tire can be beneficial in the snow, hence the want of an 18" wheel and siped and studded tall side wall "Real" snow tire.
Wondering if DT has done any trial testing of the 5 spokes offered in the look up ap that might work for me- but may not be updated yet as fitting in the ap?? 5 x 4 1/2 / 114.3 mm lug pattern, 30-45mm positive offset. Fitting actually seems to come down to whether the rim clears the rear caliper with some space for sticky weights.
64.1 mm center hole ( adapter center rings OK if necessary for larger dimeter center hole).
Big believer in Hub centric mounting of All wheels.
Many newer Mustang compatible wheels seem like a good match as well but without a weight rating hard to confirm.
The thread below adds more uncertainty,
Tirerack and Discount Tire no longer show 18" rims for MY. Can I just order for M3?
Last Summer Tirerack and Discount Tire both had 18" rims for the Model Y. This Winter I noticed they no longer did. I assumed it was from the winter demand of all the new Ys on the road, but now it seems like they don't even give the option of searching for 18" rims. Will all Model 3 wheels...teslamotorsclub.com
I get that DT does not want to add liability concerns but would Like to find some 5 spoke 18" wheels and go to a taller sidewall studded snow tire for the winter season.
With Tesla Likely to build well over 1 million Model Y's this year, aftermarket wheels that fit and meet weight specs, would seem like an expanding, great money maker market for an "On the ball" company.
Many Folks want something different wheel wise than Tesla's factory choices and hopefully the aftermarket will step in to fill the void with some more compatible and reasonably priced wheels with a wider style choice ie 5 spoke than what is available from the above mentioned suppliers (certainly no disrespect meant to them).
Sorry for the Long winded post.
We do have a Discount Tire about 50 miles away.
I shod the wife's 1974 AMX with Cooper Cobra's bought at the Hayden Idaho D T store a few years back ( you folks had the best price carry out- always looking for the best deal) and they are holding up great.
Thanks for reading this, and welcome any thoughts Discount Tire may have.
Thanks.
That higher axle/wheel rating is interesting .
Maybe needed for the rear axle when equipped with the hitch and towing at rated capacity?
Possibly my research was off on that requirement.
Don't tow or have a hitch but not ruling that out in the future.
OK 1825lb wheel rating- minimum.
So far I guess that leaves me with the 18" Method 502 Race wheels @~$1200 for four.
Not the price or look really desired, and they need a hub centric adaptor ring- but maybe what I end up with eventually.
Still have some time before winter so I will keep reading for now and maybe find a 5 spoke that is rated weight wise that fits the bill.
Thanks for checking for me and Welcome.
Yes please, if you find 18" wheels that meet weight / clearance specs and fit the model Y Performance please post them up. Have some time, Still months until winter arrives.
I like these. Good work.Absolutely, I'll continue checking into this!
Looks like the Tire Rack is listing 18-inch wheel fitments for you MYP - hopefully THIS LINK works on your end; which drills down to the 18-inch selection. The Enkei Victory may be an option to consider; which is a 5-spoke split style in 18x8 ET+40. Hub rings would be needed as the counterbore diameter is 72.6mm. Most aftermarket passenger car wheels will have a center bore diameter between 72.6 to 73mm.
I like these. Good work.
Now does Tire Rack or the local Discount Tire (Hayden) match prices on advertised exact match sales?
I ask because, BB wheels has the same wheels in Anthracite with free shipping for $209.97 each plus tax..
If Discount Tire or Tire Rack can get them to me (shipped) price matched , I am willing to drive to the Hayden store to pick them up I will bite.
I take it stock wheel lug nuts from the Uberturbines will fit?
Also does Discount Tire carry the correct hub centric rings needed?
Sorry I am a bit on the bargain hunter side, always looking for the best deal.
Those look great on your Y!Just Wanted to Thank the Whole crew at Discount Tire on the Forum here at TeslaMotorClub for helping me find some Great split 5 spoke wheels for My 2023 Model Y Performance
Great price and service. was able to get the winter tires mounted up myself and short test drive with 255/55-18 studded Nokian Nordsman 7's I mounted these up and still need to clean the tires off.
Every thing Fits! and I Like these split 5 spoke Enkie Victory 18 x 8 wheels in Anthracite.
Traction on ice should be no problem and Plenty of sidewall for protecting the rim against curbing.
Thanks Again to the Great Crew at Discount Tires.
Whoa! Did not know Discount owns TireRack.
Don't want to open a can of worms but I was a Discount Tire customer for as far back as I can remember (am 74), I can even remember when you started showing the tire through the window thank you commercials.
But for my last set (285/35 19 PS4S) I switched to Costco. The reason was 100% the warranty. Costco's was free and pro-rated. Discount Tire's were a significant cost and not prorated. And I have to assume the not prorated aspect drives the cost of the warranty WAY up. I don't want to pay for a possible windfall in case of a failure, just made whole. And have always heard some DT customers game the system by road hazarding their tires right about when they were worn out for free brand new tires.
I never used TireRack and haven't checked but if TireRack has pro-rated warranties, I will switch to them if local Discount Tires can mount, service.
Or if DT has some type of pro-rated warranty option I don't see, will switch back.
Hi DT. Quick question - I will be buying a set of new tires from DT for my Model Y. Can I supply my own TPMS sensors, like as in bring them with me and DT will install them? I want to buy the factory ones at $95 each instead of paying the $120 each for DT's.
Thanks.
