    2022 refreshed tempest wheel fitment on older Model S

    I think you will need to replace the rear tires for ones that are a little less wide. You can use the 10.5 rims and 5 mm spacers but use the 255 45 19in tires mounted on the rims. If you use a 10mm spacer you may need to replace the studs so you can get 8 full turns of threads engagement. This...

    Need Advice -- Tesla updated software on my 2013 Model S, Now im being forced into pricey Infotainment upgrade.

    Putting 2022 19" wheels/tires on 2017 Model S?

    On the front of my car I have 14-15 treads of engagement so no need for longer studs. I was able to run a 15mm spacer and still have 8+ threads of engagement.

    Putting 2022 19" wheels/tires on 2017 Model S?

    I bought them but did not install them. I am only using a 5mm spacer in the rear and I still have 7.5-8 full threads of engagement. (8 threads of engagement is the industry standard for safe number of threads to hold something on). So I do not think I need them, it might be safer if I had...

    Putting 2022 19" wheels/tires on 2017 Model S?

    In the front the 19"x9.5" rim rubs on the aluminum suspension/knuckle/upright it just makes contact with the inner lip/edge of the rim. In the rear the 19"x9.5" rim and 255/45R19 tire has clearance to the body but rubs on the liner farther up on the inner fender.

    Putting 2022 19" wheels/tires on 2017 Model S?

    The 19" x9.5 tempest wheel and tire(255/45/R19) arrived from ebay. Does it fit? Short answer. Front = no Rear = kind of. The front will need a spacer to fit. The rear will bolt up but it rubs a little on the fender liner.
