Thanks for your help. Just got that setup today 275/35/21 front and 295/35/21 in the rear and yesssss the ride quality is soooooo much better. I immediately felt a difference. Aesthetically it also looks better as well.
How it impacts on range?
@@fastanfun not even 1% or less. You don’t even notice it.
On stock 21 turbine?
Is sound impacted in the cabine?
What do you mean with ride quality? What changed, can you explain please.
Thanks for this. This is just the information I was looking for as I get closer to my first tire replacement on my MYP. Great Job!! I am now subscribed!
I got my 2021 y performance in June 21 and presently have 17200 miles with no curb rash so far. Great information!
Lol, rare achievement. Fine driving good sir!
Congrats on the no curbing those beautiful Uberturbines. I had 6 miles on my 2023 MYP and currently at 15,600 with zero marks on mine as well. Commitment and consistency is the key for this achievement! Knocking on wood right now..
Oh man, this is the answer I'm looking for!
Sounds like a good tire upgrade to protect the rims 👍
I went with exact tires as recommended by Brad and they are awesome! Thanks Brad!
You bet! Glad it worked for you.
@@squaredawayeveryday was it necessary to do alignment?
One thing that should be mentioned is that you’ll want to find a tire shop in your local area willing to do the work before committing to a purchase. I was flat out refused service by two tire shops because they didn’t want to deal with going outside of Tesla’s factory specs for the 21 Uberturbine wheels. The third shop I found did the work, but the on-site manager got pushback from his staff because of the same reason but they ended up doing it. I know it’s a bit tougher for these guys to work with these wheel and tire sizes, so I’m sure that was a factor as well.
Your MYP is very nice, keep up the good videos. I am subscribing to you channel.
thanks man
I think you can just take the rear tires move them to the front. Then get a new 295 35 for the rear. Then you only need two tires. Then of course get you a set of 19s for winter cold weather tires.
Unless you need all season tires to replace the sport summer tires
I’ll likely get sport all seasons 😀! I’m surprised Tesla hasn’t updated tire options for the MYP, considering feedback regarding tire protection & climates
Totally agree! I have this setup, it's worth it. Pilot Sport 4s 275/35/21 front 295/35/21
P.S. i had to wait a couple weeks for my front tires from my tirerack order, plan ahead.
Can I move the existing rear to the front since it's 275/35R21 and then purchase 295/35R21 for the rear?
@@KSSEND if you mean swapping the wheels, no. The rims on the front and rear are different sizes (staggered). You might be able to have someone take the tire off the rear and put it on the front rim. I don’t have experience with this though.
Is there a significant difference in consumption kW/km when changing the tyres like this?
@@mathijsroelofsen yes
@@scmountaindad2190 what can you tell? What is the diff?
You’re a life saver! Just the info I was looking for. I too don’t like the rim sticking out like that on my 21 MYP. I like the more squared off look. Thank you for the width recommendations! Exactly what I was looking for. Subbed!
Got me some 295’s in the back. Rocking 255’s front.
I had done this a while back. I agree on the ride and rim protection. However if you are in it for the acceleration, it slows it down. I feel its effect. I am trying to find a set of wheels that are an 8.5/9.5" wide stagger in 20"s. hard to find so far. I want to run the stock 255/275 maybe even in a 40 instead of 35. Traction and adhesion dont seem to be as big as drag. I do notice the car turn a little different but havent pinpointed why, yet. At this point I have Teins. MPP haul for adjustable camber and toe just arrived too. The car does hunt a little at speed and that is going to stop.
Ironically, if you had to choose one and one only, which ones do you get. Make it simple for me to just get the ONE! :) Thanks for this. I live in the east coast and definitely will/should replace it for the winter.
Thanks for the video. Would it be okay to just go 275/35/21 on all four?
Thanks for the video. Curious why you did t move the rears to the front to get the 275 up front as opposed to getting the 265? We’re the 295s out too? Love the channel
Chris what's your opinion on the CYBRHEX wheel for the Model Y specifically? Should I go with the 21 or 22 inche. I took you advice on the tire size in this video and added springs and spacers and it just set this vehicle off. Now I'm seeing so many Y's on the road I need something different. I will say the car never rode great so that's why I would like your opinion on the wheel size moving forward.
Thank you, I’m curious after updating your tires to 275 and 295 any alignment needs to be done, i experienced vibration from the front but I found the issue my weight was OFF from the rim :)
I agree with you & did this on my Tesla. Did you buy the items with the foam inside? I didn’t (although recommended by Tesla) and there’s really no difference in noise. 🤷🏽
Do you think you can go 265/40/21 front and 285/40/21 rear? I want a little mother ride for MYP
Are there any concerns for warranty issues when using non recommended tire sizes?
I swapped 275s for 295s 9n an SRT8 w viper and they did fine and prevented wheel scuffs. I would gO xl heavy load tires
Do you have any experience with rim savers? They seem to protect against damaging the rims… was thinking of getting them
do you need to change some settings so the car can recalculate the correct range after you make this change?
Can you post the recommended tire sizes in the description.
New to the game here, guessing there were no issues running different (non stock) sized tires. Looking to replace on our dual motor LR Y, 20” wheels, and don’t want computers freaking out because of a different tire size.
Thanks for the advise. question. My front tire still have a good amount of tread but my rear tire sare done. Is there a problem for me to get the 295 now and later get the 275 's for the front when they are done probably in 6-9 months? Thanks
I'm interested in purchasing a model y long-range do you suggest any tires for that model?
Bro I cannot find all seasons in this size. Do they exist?
I can tell you it really makes the MYP look STOUT!
Does changing to 295 rear and 175 fronts void any warranty?
Hi I left my 275 35 21 in the back and upgraded the front to 265 35 21 is that ok?
What about a 40 sidewall?
Hello, question, is there any cons on changing the tires to 275/35/21 front 295/35/21 in back. Like loss of range, the speedometer something like that? Can somebody answer before i do swap my tires with it. Thank you.
For model 3 performance, can I put P245/35/20 instead P235/35/20?
Assuming the tires aren’t worn out, couldn’t you just swap the back tires to the front wheels and buy new back tires?
255/35-21 front
275/35-21 Rear
Michelin Pilot sport all season came factory on my 2023 model Y performance, was built in September in the Fremont, California plant.
Are these Michelle better?
@@Jack-nighthawk I don’t have an answer for that, as I have not tried any other tires on my vehicle.. I will say that the Michelin seems rather soft. I believe I got Lucky on my model Y performance and that the alignment is spot on, I’m at 18 thousand miles as of right now. When it was brand new I had only 6 miles from factory. I had almost 9 mm of tread and currently I have a little over five. The rear tires wear faster than the front ones as my front tires are over 6 mm tread depth remaining.
Thank u sir @@CryptoPivot
You had the correct front tires already in the rear. Why didn't you just move the rear tires to the front and get new pair of 295/35/21 to the rear?
Hey like the videos! I'm in Colorado too. Quick question on wheels and tires. I was looking at going to a 20in wheel with a square set up running 255 45 20 both front and back. Do you think this would work for the model y performance?
Did you go with this setup? Did you install the model 3 Uber turbine on model y performance? If so are you able to share the improvements on ride? Comfort is very important for me. Did it create any issues with speedometer and range?
Just ordered a PMY and the first thing I plan on doing is dumping the OEM 21" tires/wheels and going with a new 18" tire/wheel package TSportLine just announced.
Curious. Why? Planning ahead as well.
Why not 40 in profile?
How do you rotate your tires if the wheels and tires are different sizes?
You don’t.
Did Anyone who has done this substitution of the tires 275/34 295/35 got rims scratches due to the substitution process? The workshop told me that they cannot guarantee absences of scratches if the tires are too tight… I was wondering what people has experienced on this?
With the 275 in the front and 295 in the rear, you've increased each diameter. Will this not cause any speedometer issues?
@@Ihavetopoop718 Is there a significant difference in consumption kW/km when changing the tyres like this?
275/295 is the width. The smaller number is the sidewall height ie 45 /35 is what determines the diameter
Thx for the video! Ok so is it just me or can one not simply take the 275/35/21 tires off the rear 10.5” rim and put them on the front 9.5” rim? Half the issue solved. Now only have to buy 295/35/21 for the rears. 🤷🏽♂️. Pretty much a given one can have the 275’s up front as the car comes with this tire.
You could definitely do this, assuming of course you're buying the same tire. In my case, I needed all season tires and my MYP came with summer tires.
@@squaredawayeveryday Is there a significant difference in consumption kW/km when changing the tyres like this?
Hey bro! Thanks for this video. I didn't even consider this and I take delivery soon. I was thinking of taking stock rear tires, moving to front then just buying rear tires. Should do the trick no?
Yeah that should be just fine. The only reason I didn’t go this route was because mine was delivered on summer tires and I wanted all seasons. Congrats on the new ride!
@@squaredawayeveryday Very Nice! I live in Cali, its always summer here.
Hey bro! The 295s don't have the acoustic foam inside. I had no idea until I started driving the car after install, had a slight hum. Did you notice it?
@@HabibiGolf Hello, so you swapped the rear 275 tire only to the front and bought 295 for rear? How’s the ride now? Better? I have a 22 MYP and really want to improve the ride. I’m on Michelin All Season tires.
@@burntrubber9538 Exactly what I did. Much better ride, looks 10x better too. The tires go over the rim a tad and I feel better about potholes now. Expect some more road noise from the 295s, they don't have the acoustic foam inside like the tires that come with the car. Unfortunately they don't make them in 295, but the small noise difference is worth it IMO.
Awesome info
Please post video on how, why, and when to do a balance and Rotation
Thanks for educating the community and appreciate your volunteering
Thanks to team
how about 18" wheels like Martian or T-Sportline on the Performance Model Y? Would that give a more noticeable improvement in ride quality?
I don't think 18" fits on the Performance because of the brakes. I'm looking at 19" or 20" myself.
@@nmtb1972 It does on the MYP, not the M3P. See the Martian MW05 18" for more info.
@@h3yy4ll Cheers! I will check it out. I would have expected it to be the other way around as the M3 has an 18" option as standard, not the MY.
@@nmtb1972 To clarify, I think the 18" Martian MW05 page mentions that the 18 fits on the M3P after modifications for clearance, and provides a contact link to ask them about it. This is not because of the brakes but because of the width of the wheel (10.5"). MYP has more fender room and can fit that wheel without modification. Note that there are two versions of MW05 - one is a racing wheel (wider) and one is designed for street.
I don't work for them by the way, just love the look of the MW05!
These Tesla wheels are incredibly heavy, and I would imagine that if you would replace them with some with less unsprung weight, the ride would be better, and the tires would maintain contact with the road more.
Question, Model Y performance has different tire size from front to rear, 255/35R21 front tires and 275/35R21 rear tires.If rotated it , how to do? Take wider tires to front then narrow tires to back ,is it safe and make sense?
They mostly don’t need to be rotated but if you wanted to youd just switch LF to RF and LR to RR.
That makes no sense at ALL! The car is rear drive bias and thus needs way more grip at the back than front. You would ruin your ride. Also the wheels will NOT fit from the front in the back and vice versa, the width is different.
Uber time wheels 🤣🤣
He's an Uber driver
👍🏽
Has anyone driven the 2022 performance y on the 21” rims and compare it to the LR with the 20” and if the bumpiness is noticeable?
Same
Übertime :)
Can I put 295/40/22 on the rear n 275/40/22 on the front would like to put 22 inch rims on my Tesla..
Yeah, but it will slow it down and pot holes will be even worse. I'm headed toward 19" myself.
He's correct
@@h3yy4ll yep, just put 19x8.5 aftermarket rims with 235/50R19 tires on my MYP. noticeably softer ride
I think a more primo set up would have a bigger side wall - which actually gives the softer ride. 275/40/21 & 295/40/21.
I was thinking the same thing. Do you think this would cause rubbing on the wheel wells?
This is the question I’ve been trying to find an answer too as well. Would this increase sidewall lead to any rubbing ? I understand the variation to speedometer would be almost negligible.
Watching
I’m keen on this setup too. The 40 sidewalls are so much softer. I was considering downsizing the rim just to get this higher aideqall
I feel it should also be mentioned that changing tires sizes also affects what the speedometer reads. Using a tire size calculator will show the difference in revolutions per mile.
Why didn’t you use the 275 tyres that came with the vehicle and then transfer to the front (if done when vehicle received
Because I needed all seasons and it came on summer tires.
Could you not just put the factory 275 rear tires on the front wheels?
I could have, although I was switching from summer tires to all seasons.
The arrangement that you spoke of 265/35 front 295/35 rear, for your wife’s car does not seem appropriate. I say this because that puts the the arrangement too much of a difference between the front and back., not sure if this matters but there’s only 20 difference between the factory 255/35 and 275/35. There is 30 difference between the numbers on your wife’s tire arrangement. I’m wondering how this affects the torque difference between the front motors and the back based on how it’s programmed by the factory would it be binding motor torque upon an acceleration? I have noticed that when you rotate tires or change tires, it goes through a small calibration when prompted to do so in the service menu setting, which it then says, do not hard accelerate for the first few miles, I’m not sure exactly what it’s calibrating. I would certainly like to know.
This will set you back in Europe about 2000 euro's. That is a lot of money to solve a problem that shouldn't have been there in the first place....
Are you going to tint your Y?
I will, just haven’t made time for it yet.
What's expected life on these tires vs what everyone else has been getting? I'm hearing horror stories of 5,000 miles.
Where’s the car?
You could’ve move the rear tires to your front and just bought the rear tires
My existing tires were for summer, I needed all seasons.
275 55 21 in rear? Dune buggy status lol. 35 series I'm rear. Great vid
I used to have this problem and ruined a set of wheels myself. Now I just don’t hit curbs and I drive much more carefully. Learn how to drive and not hit curbs and you’ll be fine.
It's Überturbine.😉
Lol, thanks.
Uberturbine
Can a 40 sidewall fit, ie 295 40 R 21?
In the rear, yes
