Model X 2021+ Tire Sizes

Model X and Tesla are trademarks of Tesla, Inc., used here only to identify the vehicle these third-party products are listed to fit. EVAccessoryRank is independent and not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by Tesla, Inc.

Last updated Nov 3, 2026. Specs checked against Tesla's pages that day.

Tire and wheel specs for the 2021+ (refreshed) Model X in the U.S. and Canada, taken from Tesla's own Model X owner's manual, service manual and Tesla Shop. Every Model X setup is staggered: the rear tires are wider than the fronts. This page does not cover 2015–2020 cars.

Before you buy: confirm the size, load index and speed rating on the Tire and Loading Information label on your door pillar. Your car's label is the final word.

Replacement tires Tesla lists for Model X

From Tesla's Model X service manual (North America). The "T" mark on the sidewall (T0, T1, T2) shows a Tesla-specified version. Tesla says most Tesla-approved tires are sold only through Tesla, so a store may stock the same model without the Tesla mark.

Tire pressure

Tesla's 2021+ Model X owner's manual does not print pressures. It says to use the Tire and Loading Information label on the center door pillar, which is visible when the driver's door is open.

Winter, chains and other notes from Tesla

Tesla's approved chains go on the rear tires only. Do not put chains on summer tires or on the front tires.
With chains on, set air suspension to Medium, turn off Default Ride Height to Low and do not exceed 30 mph (48 km/h).

Referral link · the site owner may benefit if you use it

Ordering from Tesla?

The site owner drives a Tesla and has a Tesla referral link. Tesla changed its U.S. referral program at the end of October 2026: as reported, new car orders in the U.S. no longer come with a referral benefit, while Tesla-installed solar may still qualify. Terms outside the U.S. can differ.

Tesla sets the benefit and can change it at any time. The Tesla referral page shows what, if anything, you get before you order. Open the link before you place your order: Tesla can't add a referral afterward.
