It's interesting that the 20 inch Aero Lites get Michelins while the rest get Pirellis. You'd think it'd be the same across the board.

Still no option to get summer tires on the 19s and no winter wheel and tire package based on the 19s

Go to tirerack.com for summer or winter tire and wheel packages. There are several options for 245/45/19 tires. I plan to get Michelin all season tires for better ride and lower rolling resistance therefore better range. I’m familiar with and not a fan of the Pirelli P Zero. The trade off is handling but that matters less to me.

Okay, so what do you know about switching between summer and winter wheel/tire setups? Do I need to have my car's TPMS reset by Lucid every time or can I do that myself if I switch my wheels at the seasons?

I'd also like my 19" tires to be very quiet, so if anyone has recommendations, I'd love to get those, too.

I just got notification that my GT VIN is forthcoming. Not sure what that means for delivery, but I have to finalize my wheel and tire choices. I originally selected the 21” Blade wheels because I thought that they looked the best. But I live in western Pennsylvania where we do get a decent amount of snow. Does anyone know if Lucid will be offering all season tires on the 21” wheels? Or how expensive would it be to have a set of 21” and 19” wheels?

Do you know that the tires on the 21” wheel are useless and or dangerous below 40 degrees. They are summer tires which can get brittle the colder it gets read the owner’s manual it spells out. Let us know how you make out somebody will manufacture a winter tire just not yet!!

If you get separate wheels for the winter tires you can buy TPMS sensors for them. There is always an ability to reset the TPMS for the current tire pressure. If you don’t get separate wheels then every time you change tires they will need to be mounted and balanced. The TPMS would be reset also.

Yes, I did read that, too.

I got myself a set of winter tires on 19" rims, from Tire Rack:

I had the Chicago Goose-Island service center for Lucid sync up the TPMS sensors that Tire Rack installed in the package.

My $.02 I personally don't understand the obsession with huge wheels. In the case of the Lucid it is a very heavy passenger car not a sports car and the 21" 35 profile will both reduce range (I almost typed gas mileage!) and provide a harsher ride with a minimal improvement of handling mainly due to the category and size of tire & with a softer compound they will also have a reduced life. I have tracked several Porsches including a GT3 race car, and one of the 1st upgrades is to smaller wheels which based on the math give a little more sidewall and will reduce the unsprung weight which has a major effect on turn in and compliance. I got that car down to 18". My current track car is a street legal 718 GT4 and one of the 1st upgrades was going to 19" (vs 20"OEM) lightweight forged wheels which saved about 10 lbs per corner. Because of my personal preference my car will be delivered with 19" wheels and a new set of Michelin snow tires from tire rack are sitting in the garage anxiously waiting their steeds arrival. Good luck to everyone and happy Thanksgiving.
