Roadster Rotary Forged Wheels (Complete Set)
After 3 years looking for a manufacturer that could produce better alternative wheels for the Roadster I took the project in my own hands and it turned out great. Get yourself a great set of wheels may be together with your 3.0 Upgrade.
Nurburgring Front Wheels 17x17.5 - Rear Wheels 18X8
Included
4 Michelin Pilot Super Sport Tires
Front 205/45R17 - Rear 235/40ZR18XL 95Y
4 Tesla Roadster Tire Sensors
Installed
20 Wheel bolts 17mm plus tool bar
The shipping rate is a rough guess. Depending from your location it might be more or less.
The Nurburgring is manufactured using a highly advanced production technique called Rotary Forging. The rim of the wheels is forged at high pressure while the wheel is spun at high speed. This alters the molecular structure and enhances the strength of the alloy. The benefit is a much lighter weight than a regular cast wheel. Most importantly, the weight saving is in the outer rim of the wheel which dramatically reduces rotational mass and enhances vehicle performance.

Nurburgring 18inch w 235/40ZR18XL 95Y Michelin Pilot Super Sport. - - - Weight 42.5 pounds
