Quick answer: The Tesla Model 3 (2017+) uses a 5×114.3 bolt pattern. Variant builds forged wheels for the Model 3 in a staggered 20×9 front / 20×10 rear fitment — a clean upgrade over the factory 18s and 19s — and for a more custom look you can step up to lightweight EX2 or multi-piece 3-piece. Every set is forged, hub-centric, machined to the Model 3's factory hub bore, and built to clear the factory brakes, including the Performance model. Shop all Model 3 wheels →
Tesla Model 3 fitment basics
- Bolt pattern: 5×114.3
- Setup: Staggered — a wider rear than front
- Variant fitment: 20×9 front / 20×10 rear
- Hub-centric: machined to the Model 3's hub bore, so no vibration and no hub-centric rings needed
- TPMS: fully compatible with your factory Tesla sensors
The Variant Model 3 fitment
Variant builds the Model 3 in a staggered 20×9 / 20×10 forged setup. Going to a lightweight 20-inch forged wheel sharpens the Model 3's stance and handling while keeping weight down — which matters on an EV where unsprung weight affects both ride and efficiency.
Forged monoblock designs for the Model 3
The forged monoblock designs below are the most popular starting point for the Model 3 — each forged from a single piece of 6061-T6 for a clean, lightweight wheel: the Maxim, Nysa, Rian, Sena, and Zeno. Finishes are fully customizable — popular Model 3 choices include Gloss Black, Satin Black, Gloss Gunmetal, Satin Gunmetal, Gloss Bronze, Satin Bronze, Raw Milled, and Chrome Powder.
Going custom: lightweight EX2 & multi-piece options for your Model 3
Want something beyond the monoblocks? Every set is built to order, so you can spec exactly what you want:
- EX2 (EVO 2-piece): the EVO designs in a lightweight two-piece build — an accessible step up that trims unsprung weight, which an EV especially appreciates.
- 3-Piece Forged (3P & 3P+): a forged center, barrel, and lip with fully customizable face, lip depth, and hardware for a true one-off.
- 2-Piece Forged: a forged face on a forged barrel for a clean custom look with more spec flexibility than a monoblock.
- EVO Beadlock (EBL): a true beadlock-style wheel for track use.

Why forged matters on a Model 3
Lighter wheels reduce unsprung weight, which sharpens handling and ride and can help an EV feel more responsive and efficient. Variant's forged wheels are made from 6061-T6 aerospace-grade aluminum — stronger and lighter than cast or flow-formed wheels — without giving up strength.
