For those looking to improve efficiency in every way possible, one of the most efficient methods is to reduce unsprung weight. (Unsprung weight or unsprung mass is the weight that is not supported by the suspension of the vehicle. For example, components such as the wheels, wheel axle(s), wheel bearings, wheel hubs, lug nuts, tires, a portion of the weight of the driveshaft, springs, dampers, and brake systems.) Removing unsprung weight can offer a myriad of improvements, some of which include a better steering feel and more efficient transfer of motor power to the pavement!

In our never-ending effort to remove weight from Tesla vehicles, and thus improve range and performance, we created our Superlight Titanium Lug Nut Set. Produced completely from 64-grade titanium for impressive durability and weight savings, the Unplugged Performance Superlight Titanium Lug Nuts save 46% of weight versus the OEM steel lug nuts.
- Produced from 100% 64 Grade Titanium
- Titanium is ultra-strong and does not rust
- Roughly 46% weight savings over the original Tesla lug nuts from Early Model S and Model X and roughly 24% weight savings versus current short open-ended lug nuts on current Model S and X.
- Identical conical design as Tesla OEM to maximize contact between lug nuts and wheels. Other aftermarket lug nuts have a generic conical shape and very little surface area contact between nut and wheel which is potentially dangerous.
- All versions are compatible with all Tesla wheels for Model S, 3, X, and Y including 2021+ Tesla Model S Plaid / LR versions.
- The “Short Length” lug nuts are the size of the original Model 3, Model Y, and Model S Plaid lug nuts but are compatible with all 2012+ Tesla vehicles.
- The “Standard Length” lug nuts are the size of the original generations of Tesla Model S and Model X lug nuts but are compatible with all 2012+ Tesla vehicles.
- Accepts all variations of OEM Model S & Model X plastic lug nut caps, Model 3 Aero wheel covers and Aero Wheel Caps, Model 3 19″/20″ and caps, Model Y wheel caps.
- Optional “Burnt Titanium” has unique a blue-purple-gold rainbow hue only found on heated titanium alloy.
- Optional Black DLC (Diamond-like-coating) is an incredibly hard protective coating found on high-end luxury titanium watches.
Can I run a wider tire on UP aftermarket wheels for better grip?
Yes, and it is one of the most impactful upgrades you can make for performance driving. Several UP wheels are available in widths that exceed the stock Tesla fitment, allowing a wider tire with a larger contact patch, more cornering grip, and better traction under acceleration. This is especially popular on the Model S Plaid and Model 3 Performance for track days and spirited driving, where the extra grip makes a noticeable difference.
That said, wider is not always better, and the right choice really depends on how you use the car. A wider tire is excellent on a Saturday at the track. On Monday through Friday it adds rolling resistance, which translates directly to reduced range. The heavier the tire and the wider the footprint, the more energy it takes to move the car. For most daily drivers the range impact is real enough to consider.
If your priority is OEM+ aesthetics, a smooth daily ride, or maximizing range, a narrower tire at or near the stock width is the smarter call. Several UP wheel configurations are specifically designed for this, running the same section width as the factory tire while upgrading the wheel itself for reduced weight and improved looks.
The sweet spot for most owners is somewhere in between. A modest width increase over stock, properly matched to the wheel, gives meaningfully better grip without the range and comfort penalties of going very wide. The UP Wheel and Tire Guide at unpluggedperformance.com/tesla-wheel-and-tire-guide covers recommended tire widths for every wheel configuration, and the UP team can help you find the right balance for your specific model and driving style.
