1 Answers
Tesla's 19-inch tire model is 235/40R19. The first number 235 represents the tire width of 235MM, 40 indicates the aspect ratio of the tire section is 40%, meaning the section height is 40% of the width, and 19 denotes the rim diameter of 19 inches. The middle letter "R" stands for radial tire. Tesla's 19-inch Gemini wheels are standard on the Long Range All-Wheel Drive version. If you want to replace the tires yourself, you can follow these steps: Take out the spare tire and jack, place the jack under the vehicle frame of the tire to be replaced, ensuring the jack touches the metal part of the frame; Raise the jack until it supports the car, the jack should be positioned under the vehicle, check and ensure the jack is at a right angle to the ground; Remove the hubcap, loosen the nuts counterclockwise, do not completely loosen the nuts, just enough to eliminate resistance. When loosening the nuts for the first time, keeping the tire on the ground ensures that the nuts turn rather than the tire; Turn the nuts counterclockwise until they come off, repeat this step for all lug nuts, then completely remove the nuts; Place the new tire on the wheel hub, carefully align the tire rim with the wheel bolts, install the lug nuts, hand-tighten the nuts until all are concealed, at this point the tire replacement is complete. In addition to the model, tires are also marked with the following common data: Tire cord material: Indicated by Chinese pinyin, such as M-cotton cord, R-rayon cord, N-nylon cord, G-steel cord, ZG-steel radial cord tire. Speed rating: Indicates the maximum speed at which the tire can carry a specified load under specified conditions. Letters A to Z represent certified speed ratings from 4.8km/h to 300km/h.
