They look far nicer than original and the aftermarket ones you had, imo.

Sexiest sedan on planet earth. One of the sexiest car designs ever. So clean and simple and sleek and sexy. Design perfection.

Take the trim out like Elon says and maybe take out some other weight, I would love to see how fast you could get that thing to move.

0-60MPH in 2.42 seconds... Just Insane!!!

Your garage is insane!

DragTimes Have you tried with custom carbon fiber rims???

Looking good arachnid wheel love them

woot! my titanium lug nuts are looking like a more effective weight savings method than ever :p the new wheels make the car look classy again. I wonder how tire wear lightened up the old wheels though, so maybe these do offer weight savings in the rear.

The silvers look great. Couldn't see the black ones looking better.

Could you please re run this test with the arachnids vrs the 21" oem cast wheels? I also have a tesla MX and hope to be getting some arachnid wheels with my referral code soon, it says they're for MS but will they fit the MX? Also point of interest, I have a Mini Cooper that had the heavy run flat tyres on, and changed them for nom run flats which were 8lbs lighter. I ran the car on a dyno and it made a 2hp difference. Obviously it was front wheel drive so this should be doubled to 4hp equivalent increase in hp over both axles. Also I assume this means equivalent of 4hp less force required to stop the car? Would love to know what effect these have between the heaviest and lightest. Thanks

MUCH MORE COOL LOOKING !

How do you get that display of peak motor power, acceleration ,etc??

carbon fiber wheels would probably have made a noticeable difference

I like the ones that you took off the vehicle more give it a more aggressive look

Is the car lowered? Besides being in the lowest setting on the air suspension? Thanks

Best oem Tesla wheels to date, but wished the offsets were a little more aggressive.

I'm Looking for Black wheels for my Model X 19 inch so I can still Tow. Can you recommend ? Thanks

What do you do for a living

The 19" rear wheels with a "low-profile" tire or tire having a substantially reduced tread circumference should provide an effective reduction in gearing thus likely lower 0-60 time. Also 19" or smaller forged lighter wheels could enhance 0-60 times. Thanks for the great videos! :-)

those new wheels are sexy

are they 21x 8.5 and 21x9 or 9 and 10 wide? I can't find aftermarket in 8.5 and 9. only 9 and 10. will it rub

Are the new-installed tires 21-inch?

Last time I asked about slicks you kindly replied it did not spin. Now I hear pretty often that it spins at 0-60. Would you think slicks might improve now? Maybe even smaller diameter drag slicks on light rims to sort of emulate a lower rear axle gearing which seems to be popular for dragracing. 0-60 it should still pull well I think. Thanks again for good videos!

That gets me thinking though, instead of the weight, would the size of the wheel make a difference? A bigger wheel so one revolution covers more ground to make use of that instant torque?

Jimmy M A larger diameter tire than oem effectively makes your drive ratio taller, which would hurt acceleration from a stop.

How so? ELI5 request. I'm thinking of that magnetic motor creating that instant torque vs conventional combustion engine.

@AbdulRehman-lj6ms

Jimmy M The torque applied by the motor shaft will be the same. but since torque = force × radius of tire, increasing the radius decreases the force the tire applies to the ground, hence decreasing the initial acceleration which is equal to a = F ÷ mass of the car.

All I can think of how to go even faster, is to race it at the highest altitudes possible. To me, a base P100D without premium Interior/Hi fidelity sound isn't worth it.
