What do you think about this? Tesla Wheels

[NathanZX10R]

So, I like trying new things & I haven't seen this done before. It may have been, but I haven't seen it yet in the searches I've done. However, I do like good outcomes and value opinions, especially being new to this platform of vehicles.

I would have to have the center machined out from 64.1 to 67.1 but I believe they would work.

Opinions? Thoughts?

Are they going to cost an arm and a leg? I couldn't imagine the Tesla model 3 sport rims to be cheap

Otherwise I like them and I am sure they are light. They kind of have like an optical illusion effect going on, if I look at them right they look like 5 spoke wheels, then another they look like a snowflake, kinda neat

I found a set for $400... It was just a thought.

I could take it or leave it, but I'm not a huge wheels guy. If you can get the cheap and get them modified properly (or use hubcentric spacers) the I'd say go for it...but lose the Tesla badges

Pshh keep the Tesla badges and while you're at it shave down your "Talon" in the back and put "Tesla." Our cars are already unknown to most, might as well confuse them more...

But this is coming from a guy who has bastardized logos from all makes of cars. My wheels say "Shelby GT500" and my brakes still have the "CTS-V" logo on them... Now I just need to find me some "STI" fender badges

... They wouldn't fit after I got the wheel machined.

What was the issue? I'm super interested in running these wheels on my car

Tesla rims I have seen are quite thick in the center so I would guess the studs on our cars are not long enough to get the lug nuts on.

I would not mind installing extended wheel studs just to be able to run these wheels
