2024 Tesla Model 3 tires in Los Angeles

What tire size does a 2024 Model 3 use?

It depends on the wheel package and trim your car was built with, not just the model year. Model 3 cars are commonly seen on 18", 19" and 20" wheels depending on year and trim. Read the size from the sidewall of a current tire or the placard in the driver's door jamb, and we will confirm the size, load index and speed rating that suit your specific 2024 Model 3.

Model 3 tire size depends on the wheel fitted to your car and the model year rather than on the badge. Read the size off the sidewall of a current tire, or off the placard in the driver's door jamb, and we will confirm the options that genuinely fit — including load index and speed rating, not just the width and diameter.

Choosing tires for a 2024 Model 3

Model 3 owners in Los Angeles put on freeway miles that punish a tire quietly: hours of steady speed, hot pavement and a lot of braking. Most Model 3 drivers who come to Ron's are choosing between keeping the original feel, getting the cabin quieter, or squeezing more miles out of each set.

• Where Model 3 tires usually wear first. Inner and outer shoulders are the usual story. Camber, toe and inflation pressure decide which one, and instant torque accelerates whatever the alignment is already doing. We look at all four tires before recommending a replacement set so you are not buying the same wear pattern twice.
• Noise on a Model 3. The Model 3 cabin is quiet enough that tread pattern becomes audible on coarse concrete — which describes much of the 405 and 101. If road noise is your main complaint, tire choice is the single biggest lever available to you, ahead of any add-on.
• Performance versions. Performance Model 3s often run wider, lower-profile tires with higher speed ratings. Those sizes have fewer alternatives, and stickier compounds trade tread life for grip. We will tell you honestly what that costs per mile.

We do not publish fitment tables for individual model years, because trim and wheel package change the answer and we would rather be right than fast. Send us the year, trim and size — or a photo of the sidewall — and we will identify the correct options.
