Tesla's Supercharger Team was recently laid off. We discuss what this means for the company on today's TMC Podcast streaming live at 1PM PDT. You can watch on X or on YouTube where you can participate in the live chat.
yeah... brought it to tesla service center, they said its the little corner where i curb rash it somehow bent the rim just so slightly which the tire rubber itself cant seat properly on the rim, if you look at the video closely you can see the little rash part everytime that hit 6 o'clock position the sound comes on.

still surprises me, that curb rash is from a pothole and yet that minor damage created the sound. thats crazy! ive been people with whole rim rashed up and yet no sound.
oh wow you cant even tell from the outside! i'll definently check that out. I just cant get my head wrapped around how a pothole can do that such damage haha. it dosent even look that bad compare to the others.
it's from a sticker that's on the tire bead from the manufacturer on the inside of the tire. Only fix is to remove the tire and either remove the sticker or sand it down. Or you can wait a few thousand miles and it will wear off. Had the same issue and it took mine 15k miles to go away.
Guys if your car has less than 2000 miles, just drive it more. if its more maybe it needs a little more time. 100% if the noise you hear is the same as the videos and you took the center cap off. Its just the tire compound.
Interesting, I never knew their was a sticker on the inside. I did see some sticker thing which was on the wheel outside but they fell off own their own.

oh wow instresting, SC was asking me to just buy new wheels but i was like really 900$ for that sound and cause by a little rash? no way. Thank you for the post that helped alot. ill message SC and see if they can do this instead of just selling me brand new tire.

Did you try removing and reinstalling the wheel cap? It's a 10 second check and you could save yourself a trip to the SC. That was the source of my squeak and it sounded exactly like yours.

A small allen key works well. There is a hole to pop the cap off the rim to access the lugs. Take the car for a spin without the caps on and that will eliminate that possibility.

Not for me. I never liked the look of the cap and removed it the first day. I used lug covers and still had the squishy noise. Finally went away a couple months ago but then I switched rims. Good luck

really? Thought it was pretty common. I think it looks better. Gives the big wheel some depth, stock looked too flat for me. Here’s a zoomed picture, sorry don’t have anything else since I swapped wheels and they’re currently in storage.
