Expert Buying Guide for 2017 Tesla Model S
The 2017 Tesla Model S uses a 5x120 bolt pattern with a 64.1mm center bore and a recommended offset of 40mm. When selecting aftermarket wheels, ensure the center bore matches or use hub-centric rings to prevent vibration and ensure proper load distribution. Offset is critical: deviations beyond ±5mm may cause rubbing or clearance issues with suspension and brakes. Always verify lug nut specifications: 14x1.50 thread pitch with a conical (60-degree) seat. Using incorrect lug nuts can lead to wheel loosening. For optimal safety, re-torque lug nuts after 50-100 miles of driving.

Quick Tips & Safety Warnings
- ✅ Re-torque lug nuts to 129 lb-ft (175 Nm) after 50-100 miles of driving.
- ✅ Avoid using wheels with a smaller center bore; hub-centric rings are mandatory for aftermarket wheels with a larger bore.
- ✅ Check for clearance with the brake calipers, especially on Performance models with larger brakes.
- ⚠️ Confirm bolt pattern carefully. 5x120 is often confused with other common 5-lug patterns.
- ⚠️ Torque lugs in a star pattern to 100 ft-lbs (135 Nm), then re-check torque after 50-100 km (30-60 miles).
