Always a pleasure to watch your vids. I actually logged on now to get the matter of cold tyre pressures straight but another fan has it covered. So I can only agree; all tyre pressure refer to cold and consequently it can be difficult to accurately check your tyres when they are hot. Of course I know it was a deliberate mistake just to check we are concentrating. Take care and keep them coming.🙂
Nice test. Side note - the tire pressure should be matched to specs when the tires are cold, not warm. You stated you started at 38 psi with the goal to hit the factory recommended 42 when warm. You should be starting at 42 psi cold. Yes, they will rise to ~45 psi warm but that is not an issue.
@@gregthesplintercell "cold" for purposes of tires is ambient temperature. If you start off below the cold pressure on the door, you are giving up range/performance from minute 0.
I ordered mine with the 19s but a triple black Y came available and it had 20s and my sales advisor offered it to me. I took it. And I love them. I know it’s a little rougher ride but they look awesome. Especially on triple black and I get compliments on the wheels more than the car
Thanks for sharing. Really appreciate your effort and time put into something very few individuals would not only do but painstakingly post. Kudos brother!
Gjeebs was my first for focus st content then i found cameron and carmaspeed last i found Ben Lovrien for his st content. Blowing my mind to see all of you collaborating. I think you 3 might have stumbled upon a youtube gem. Can't think of other channels i watch that are doing this. Keep it up guys 🤘👍👍
The Tascam DR-10L is the absolute best for recording audio separate from the video. I use it for every wedding I shoot. Great sound, auto leveling, and not too expensive ($150). It’s great not having to worry about losing signal to the camera since it’s all recorded right into the unit.
Great video. Keep them coming. I've learned a lot, and laughed a fair amount too. I wonder how my winter tires would fair out. Probably not too well. Microphone recommendation - Rode Wireless Go Mic with a dead-cat. I think I saw you using one in another video when you were on the street asking preference between the Ford and Tesla. It attaches to you so it shouldn't be affected by car movement, and the dead-cat should deal with a fair amount of the background noise.
Great video. Just a quick safety point, when changing a tire please be sure to not have any body parts under the car just in case that jack fails. Don’t want to see you get hurt!!
Nice video. Doing the work! I’m sure speed and/or wind speed has a lot to do with efficiency. Having bicycle toured a lot, I can tell you 100 miles into the wind, even a 5 mph wind, makes a huge energy difference. News and testing is great, but entertainment factor is going to push you up to 100K faster than anything. Some day I will get a Tesla too. Looks like it will be 10 or 11 months since ordering before I get one. I went with LR white on white and 20 inch wheels. I can’t wait to join you.
yes, you know about how wind changes your efficiency when you are a bike rider ;) I have the Model Y black with the 20 in induction wheels. they look awesome.. maybe the best looking Tesla production wheel.. I am not a fan of the performance Uberturbines.
An advantage of the 19's is you are less likely cut the sidewall hitting a curb or debris. With no spare on a long trip that is significant. If you look at race cars they all employ lots of sidewall for performance.
I really enjoy your videos very informative and funny, you crack me up. I am going to get a model y for my wife in the very near future and your information is helping me make the right choices for the car.
Thanks for the video. Can I make a recommendation? Get some garage wall guards!!! The $15-20 product will change your life in a small but perceptible way. You'll no longer have to be careful opening the car door in the garage or holding the door from hitting the wall as you get in and out.
Factory PSI is 42 COLD, they will increase as you drive and that’s ok. Mine climb to over 45 in the summer. I’m replacing the 21” Uberturbines with some 18s from TSportLine next week. I have driven my new PMY to 2500 miles in less than a month. Gonna measure efficiency and performance between them. Can’t wait to see the results.
42 Cold is not good while driving through the Desert to Las Vegas where temps are in the 100’s at 42 Cold with my Model Y I see 50 PSI when it’s that hot and have to pull over to let some air out. So now I start at 38 and see a safer 46.
@@fredsmodel3n192 from the model Y owners manual: “Do not let air out of warm tires in an attempt to match recommended cold tire pressures. A hot tire at or below the recommended cold tire inflation pressure is dangerously under-inflated.”
Need a range test with 21" wheels on the Model Y, so I have a good idea of how my range will look when I drive from LA to Phoenix in a couple of months =)
I just ordered the Laminar black Rimetrix wheel covers for my MYLR and looking forward to putting them on! I anguished over the Gemini/Induction wheel decision for months, but ultimately went with Gemini for the cost and performance advantages even though I love the look of the Induction wheels. The Rimetrix wheel covers should give me the best of both worlds! Love the channel, Gjeebs!
Same here. Just ordered the laminars and was pleasantly surprised that they sent shipping info within a day. Should get here next week and I can't wait. Also, I agree that this is a great channel. Gjeebs is the best!
I love the look of the black on the inductions but would prefer the 19s for efficiency and cost savings. What is your recommendation for adding a cover to the 19s to turn them black?
Enjoy your videos very much! Keep up the good work! I live in Gilbert and am retired so has time to assist you with your videos if you ever find yourself shorthanded. I wouldn’t require compensation, just looking for something to do, Tesla related. I have a model Y and a model 3 so I am very familiar with the product.
Differences in ride quality may be more noticeable on roads of lesser quality. The condition of freeways here in the valley are the best I've ever driven. APS non-peak rates are also very low in comparison to other providers. By the way, I ordered a MYLR with the Gemini wheels. But was considering upgrading to the 20s. I think I'll stick with the 19s. Thank you for your effort in putting together this test.
My understanding is that the recommended tire pressure is the cold tire pressure--and that is all there is to it. The psi your tires will reach while driving will vary based on many things. If it is 90 degrees outside and you are driving it hard on a race course the pressure will rise quite a bit. If it is 65 degrees outside and you are easing around town--then the tire pressure is not going to rise that much. But it is not the driver's problem to try to micro-manage it. I imagine that when your tire's psi rises while driving that the actual tire rolling resistance reduces and increase your range efficiency. You would have to apply artificial intelligence to try to micromanage your tire pressure as you are trying to do. Cold tire psi of 42 rising to 44 psi while driving may improve your range.
The best combination is just to get the 19" tires (tesla spec continentals) and get a nice looking set of wheels from T-sportline (really great looking black / sporty look). You get the best comfort / range and also really great looks. I do this on my Performance Model Y and I get the same range as a LR Model Y, with sporty looks..
@@thedude7315 not a dumb question! It actually fits with no clearance issues on the performance brakes (19" tesla wheels), or in my case, the 19" t-sportlines made for this car. Unlike the Model 3, where you can't fit the smallest wheels on the performance version (brake issues).
Great video, thanks! We bought the 20" for our MY DMLR simply for the looks - well, and at the time, estimated delivery dates for the car with 19" were 6 months longer! I believe the 19"s would be more efficient, and probably quieter/smoother as you said, but I can't get over the look of the 20"s. Also, it seems like to get the 19"s, we'd need to enhance the look with Gemini aero caps are not available on Tesla's site. We live in Europe and I don't know about the aftermarket product sites here enough to trust them. If anyone knows some good ones, please advise.
I ended up going with the 19 inch wheels.. LOVE the induction wheels but too antsy about the risk of cracks and curb rash... not to mention the range reduction. I kinda like the Gemini wheels anyways ;)
I have a 2021 Model Y Performance and I went with 295/35/21 all season in the back and 275/35/21 in the front and I lost a couple of miles, but I gained a lot on comfort and peace of mind on the rims. The tires look so much better on the rims now
@@brianlclayton Michelin sport all season. It was recommended by a technician at Tesla as the ones on them now are overstretched. Do you agree? You will notice more rim protection as well
@@brianlclayton I agree with you, there are no winter tires for that size wheels, but I don’t have to worry about it in Southern California and all season should be sufficient in my local ski resorts
I'm getting wheels from a co (don't remember name off hand) that has a replica of the 21" performance wheel in 19".....style plus ride comfort and efficiency.
Nice vid! What financial institution did you go with to finance your Model Y or if you didn't finance it, which ones would you recommend? I heard different CUs have special rates for EV or Tesla in the Valley.
I currently have 20" Inductions and I really want to soften the ride. If 19" feels better, would 18" feel even better than that? Which is a better investment for ride quality: wheels/tires or luxury coilovers?
I would say the better option is the wheels because they will improve your ride quality AND give you better range. Suspension will only improve your ride quality
I had the same question. I have the 20s but ride is rough. UK roads are not made for this car. I don’t like 19s. Need to find out if I can put higher wall tyres on the 20s. Should be enough space if the Performance can hold 21s.
Good content. 19s vs 20s, likely most asked questions. Another question, when it's winter, does Tesla prompt, change the tire pressure. It's really annoying on the Mercedes and other cars when the weather change.
If I get a LR Model Y with 19 inch Gemini wheels, I may consider getting lighter weight wheels to reduce the unsprung weight and lower the inertia to increase the car's range--and probably improve the acceleration as well.
The discs are more important than weight for range. There are no other 19 wheels that beat Gemini with discs for range. Aerodynamics is more important than weight.
the 18"'s are better for not only mileage but with more beef, from the tread to the rim, you get some protection should you run into a pothole. Plus beefier tires just look better. But then again I grew up in the 70's muscle car era and beefy tires were the norm.
You can use a good quality lavalier microphone, it should solve all your problems. Might need to get an external audio recorder though for better cable management. I recommend the rode Go but it's a bit pricey and not really necessary.
Sooo i have been looking for videos like these because i bought a 2018 Model 3 Long Range but im getting less than 200 miles!! Is that a serious problem or what? I live in Los Angeles. And there are 20” wheels on the car. No roof rack or anything external. Why am I getting such poor mileage? Please help!!
So there was a release of what Tesla called the comfort suspension for the Y in October it's not clear if you where reviewing one of those . I suspect not.
I switched from 19" geminis to 19" Tsportline TSTs. I noted a significant drop in efficiency which I attribute partially to the different rim but mainly to a switch from the stock continentals to Michelin Pilot Sport AS 4s. I know it's entirely impractical, but I think this test would have been more apples to apples if the tires were the same between the 19s and 20s.
But they don't come with the same tyres from Tesla. Isn't this more relatable to the buyers as these are the tyres they'll receive with the car as optioned? I doubt most folks run out to buy a new set of tyres right after they purchase a car.
I am not sure how you tested the Halo Disk covers... were you saying that you only had two of them and you put them on the front and ran the rear wheels with no aero covers? Also, did you need to remove the wheel to install them, or just swap out the lug nuts?
The recommend tire pressure of 42psi should be when the tires are cold. After driving for a bit and the tires warm up, the pressure will increase to 45-46psi.
Would’ve been better to have 3 sample runs for each wheel combo but that’s time consuming on your end. Also mi/kwh is more like mpg and you can better estimate your true range with that. On my MYLR with 20” wheels lifetime avg energy is 314 wh/mi or 3.19 mi/kwh. So my true range is 3.19 mi X 78 kwh battery capacity = 249 miles based on my lead foot. On a few 1000 mile trips I’ve driven, averaging 75-85 mph on the highways, I’m down to 10% charge after 200 miles from 100% charge. So probably about 225 miles range at 80 mph average speed. Good test but the 4 kwh difference (40%) between the 19” and 20” may be an anomaly because of single test runs. Thank you.
A agree 40% drop seems way higher than what their website states. That doesn't math for me. That means us 20 inchers would go from a 330 mile range to a 198 mile range?!?
A question..has anyone got an extra spare tire on their tesla in case of any flat tires? N if they did, did they got the same size as their tires or a small donut?
I had a 2018 Model 3 performance it rode hard, got a 2019 stealth performance with 19’s and I loved it. Have a Model Y Performance with 21’s and they suck. 20’s are better. Model X plaid on order August delivery … Paid for by drip !
I live in north Fresno . it gets brutal hot in the summertime . since you are from Arizona . what are some of the key things I must practice in the summer heat. Please Advice. (btw getting my long range within the next 2 months).
Or should i look at it like this. 235wh/253wh = 20s are 92.8% as effecient? That would more closely match their website? Otherwise its 10kwh/14kwh which makes the 20s 71.4% as effecient as the 19?

Any recommendations to get 19Inch Gemini wheels with tires for 2022 Performance model y?
Hi so is 19 inch rims standard on 22 Tesla y are those all season or 20 inch induction what’s your recommendation
Real-world range difference between 20's and 19's = 3.1 miles. I went with the 20s too.
the 18"'s are better for not only mileage but with more beef, from the tread to the rim, you get some protection should you run into a pothole. Plus beefier tires just look better. But then again I grew up in the 70's muscle car era and beefy tires were the norm.

Recommended tire pressue is cold. You should set your tires to 42psi cold.

Yeah tire pressures on door jam are to be set when cold not warm up to those pressures. Maybe net a litte better range if set properly.
@1:00 ........ "And then you scratch the sh*t out of it." 😆
Hey, looking at this, it seems I can put this aerodisc on any car. Would that be possible to use on any wheel with 5 lugnuts ?
Wondering about compromise therefore of nice look (on video at least) of black cover 19" vs actual induction 20" 😊
I get that there is no spare …. But are the tyres run-flats ? (My MY arrives in feb )
I switched from 19" geminis to 19" Tsportline TSTs. I noted a significant drop in efficiency which I attribute partially to the different rim but mainly to a switch from the stock continentals to Michelin Pilot Sport AS 4s. I know it's entirely impractical, but I think this test would have been more apples to apples if the tires were the same between the 19s and 20s.
But they don't come with the same tyres from Tesla. Isn't this more relatable to the buyers as these are the tyres they'll receive with the car as optioned? I doubt most folks run out to buy a new set of tyres right after they purchase a car.
Ok I have long range Y and it black and factory cover stick out ,I like to find a good aero cover in black I’m 71 but still a good look
“They include this handy tool, then you just… scratch the shit out of it” hilarious
Did you get a mic recommendations after this video?
I am not sure how you tested the Halo Disk covers... were you saying that you only had two of them and you put them on the front and ran the rear wheels with no aero covers? Also, did you need to remove the wheel to install them, or just swap out the lug nuts?
Just swap lug nuts and you only get two in a set not 4. They only recommend 2 I’m not sure why
What's up with the Pepsi wheel covers. Lol
The recommend tire pressure of 42psi should be when the tires are cold. After driving for a bit and the tires warm up, the pressure will increase to 45-46psi.
OEM recommended tire pressure is ALWAYS cold. ie not driving on the tires for ~8 hours. You should know better if you're doing a tire video.
As I have the Inductions in my garage ready for spring this will be ....stressful.
Would’ve been better to have 3 sample runs for each wheel combo but that’s time consuming on your end. Also mi/kwh is more like mpg and you can better estimate your true range with that. On my MYLR with 20” wheels lifetime avg energy is 314 wh/mi or 3.19 mi/kwh. So my true range is 3.19 mi X 78 kwh battery capacity = 249 miles based on my lead foot. On a few 1000 mile trips I’ve driven, averaging 75-85 mph on the highways, I’m down to 10% charge after 200 miles from 100% charge. So probably about 225 miles range at 80 mph average speed.
Good test but the 4 kwh difference (40%) between the 19” and 20” may be an anomaly because of single test runs. Thank you.
agree. 4kwh on that lap is joke, math fail for thw win
A agree 40% drop seems way higher than what their website states. That doesn't math for me.
That means us 20 inchers would go from a 330 mile range to a 198 mile range?!?
That Widebody GC!
Where is the link for the air compressor drill set?!
You could use a wireless mic that clips on to the collar of your shirt.
Halo disc is really cool!
Try the Martian forged wheels, very light and strong.
I would appreciate links for your excellent music choices.
Everything I use is from the RUclips audio library so it’s royalty free. I’ll try and remember to put them in descriptions
Where did you order it from? There’s a lot of sketchy places trying to sell it.
Was that a really 22b,or a wide body 2.5 looks sick either way
A question..has anyone got an extra spare tire on their tesla in case of any flat tires? N if they did, did they got the same size as their tires or a small donut?
I had a 2018 Model 3 performance it rode hard, got a 2019 stealth performance with 19’s and I loved it. Have a Model Y Performance with 21’s and they suck. 20’s are better. Model X plaid on order August delivery … Paid for by drip !
I live in north Fresno . it gets brutal hot in the summertime . since you are from Arizona . what are some of the key things I must practice in the summer heat. Please Advice. (btw getting my long range within the next 2 months).
The first thing you need to do is get tint. Top of the line from 3m or xpel
Or should i look at it like this. 235wh/253wh = 20s are 92.8% as effecient? That would more closely match their website?
Otherwise its 10kwh/14kwh which makes the 20s 71.4% as effecient as the 19?
How do you fit the 19" Gemini wheels when the performance model has massive calipers?
