I’m trying to figure out my next wheel and tire set up. I’m in Colorado so I need at least 3 peak rated (Wildpeaks, Duratracs, etc). I was initially going to pick up the winter wheel/tire set from Tesla, but I would like to do a decent amount of off roading and want to be able to air down properly. I’m concerned another set of 20’s without beadlocks won’t do the trick, plus I already have 5 Cyberwheels (stock AT setup+spare). I’m leaning toward some 18 inch wheels with beadlocks. I guess it’s more a question of:

- how much can I air down if I have 18 or 20” beadlocks? I know the truck is heavy so I’m not sure if this would allow me to air down much more than the current 20’s? ESP with beadlocks?

I wish Tesla would offer the winter setup on a set of 18’s or at least a beadlock 20 inch wheel.

I would recommend 18" method "BEAD GRIP " don't do full bead locks. Bead locks are made for lets say off road use only type of truck. They add a lot of weight to the wheel and they are not as accurate to spin balance. The BEAD GRIP works really good!!! as far as how low you can go BFG say 15 MPH at 15 psi is the lowest you can go.

I don’t see any options with the CT’s bolt pattern on their site.

Just updating… still on the lookout for some decent 18” wheels, but can’t find any that say they will fit besides what UP and TSportline offer, without modification needed.
