1 Answers
Tesla's 18-inch and 19-inch wheels differ in the following aspects: 1. Size: The 18/19-inch refers to the diameter of the wheel rim, with the 18-inch wheel being smaller than the 19-inch. 2. Manufacturing cost and material usage: The cost to produce a 19-inch wheel is higher than that of an 18-inch. 3. Price: Generally, for the same model, the larger the size, the higher the price. 4. Comfort: Smaller wheels with thicker tire walls provide better road vibration absorption, making the 18-inch wheels more comfortable to drive compared to the 19-inch. 5. Fuel consumption: Larger wheels have wider treads, increasing friction with the ground and thus higher fuel consumption, so the 18-inch wheels consume less fuel than the 19-inch.
