Find Tyres for 2021-present Tesla Model X

Find the right tyre size for the 2021-present Tesla Model X โ€” match against your sidewall before booking a fit.

About this generation

This generation of the Model X 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.

As an EV, the Tesla Model X carries more weight than a comparable petrol car and delivers torque instantly โ€” both factors that make EV-specific tyres a sensible choice. Original equipment was typically EV-rated.

Common factory tyre sizes

UK-market factory fitments for the 2021-present Tesla Model X typically include:

Wet grip is the most relevant EU label rating for UK driving. On the Model X, prioritise wet grip A or B for shorter braking in rain.

UK-market Tesla Model X cars often had different wheel and tyre packages than US versions. Confirm against the UK door-frame placard rather than US owner forums.

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.

  • Are premium-brand tyres worth it on a Tesla Model X?

    On a Tesla Model X, premium tyre brands (Michelin, Continental, Bridgestone, Pirelli, Goodyear) typically deliver longer tread life, better wet grip and quieter rolling. The cost difference is usually recouped over the tyre's life.

  • Are OEM tyres still fitted to new Tesla Model X cars?

    New UK Tesla Model X 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.

  • What's different about the 2021-present Model X compared with other generations?

    This is the 2021-present generation of the Tesla Model X. Earlier and later generations use different platforms, wheel sizes and tyre fitments, so always match your specific year to the correct generation page.

  • What do star/OEM markings mean on Tesla Model X tyres?

    Tesla approves specific tyres for many of its models, marked with a star (BMW), MO (Mercedes), AO (Audi), J (Jaguar) or similar. OEM-marked tyres are tuned for that car's suspension and don't always come from the major brand-name fitter as a stock item โ€” they may need to be ordered.

  • Where should I check the original tyre size for my Tesla Model X?

    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.
