Tesla Model 3
Find Tyres for 2024-present Tesla Model 3
Common factory fitments and replacement guidance for the 2024-present Tesla Model 3.
About this generation
As an EV, the Tesla Model 3 carries more weight than a comparable petrol car and delivers torque instantly — both factors that make EV-specific tyres a sensible choice. Original equipment was typically EV-rated.
This generation of the Model 3 runs on 19-inch or larger wheels in some trims, which means short-sidewall tyres that handle precisely but are less forgiving on rough UK roads.
Common factory tyre sizes
UK-market factory fitments for the 2024-present Tesla Model 3 typically include:
Tesla works with tyre makers to develop OEM-marked versions for the Model 3, tuned for the car's suspension calibration. Star, MO, AO or J markings indicate manufacturer-approved tyres.
Tyre fitment for any Tesla Model 3 depends on the wheels and trim ordered from new. The most accurate way to confirm a replacement is to read the size from your existing tyre sidewall.

Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.
The Model 3 uses 19" or larger wheels — what should I know?
Larger wheels mean lower-profile tyres with shorter sidewalls — that means firmer ride, more pothole sensitivity and shorter tyre life on UK roads. Premium tyres usually repay the extra cost on cars with 19"+ wheels.
Where should I check the original tyre size for my Tesla Model 3?
Look in three places: (1) the sidewall of the existing tyre, (2) the placard inside the driver's door frame, and (3) the vehicle handbook. The driver's door placard is the official OEM specification, and the sidewall confirms what's fitted now.
Are all-season tyres suitable for the Tesla Model 3?
All-season tyres carrying the 3PMSF snowflake symbol are a sensible choice for UK Tesla Model 3 drivers who don't want to swap between summer and winter sets. Confirm the size and load rating match your OEM spec.
What should Tesla Model 3 drivers know about UK potholes?
UK road conditions are tough on tyres. Check sidewall bulges, cuts and tread depth regularly — especially on the inside edge, which often wears unevenly. A 20p coin gives a quick legal-tread check.
Are OEM tyres still fitted to new Tesla Model 3 cars?
New UK Tesla Model 3 cars leave the factory with original-equipment (OEM) tyres specified by Tesla. When replacing, you can stay on the same OEM brand or move to an alternative provided the size, load index and speed rating match.
