Tesla Model X / Model X Plaid – UP-03 Lightweight Forged Wheels (Set Of 4)

The UP Forged UP-03 wheel from Unplugged Performance is engineered to exceed every wheel expectation for Tesla Model X owners. With a legacy forged on racetracks and brutal real-world conditions, the UP-03 is the most sought-after forged wheel on the market — a true testament to engineering excellence and motorsport heritage. Unlike factory wheels, which are often cast and heavier, the UP-03 wheels are forged from aerospace-grade 6061-T6 aluminum, delivering superior mechanical properties that holistically bring performance and longevity together nicely.

Things That Matter:

• Weight Savings: Compared to Tesla factory wheels, which can be significantly heavier due to cast manufacturing, the UP-03 wheels save substantial unsprung weight. On a heavy vehicle like the Model X—often exceeding 6,000 pounds—reducing wheel weight directly impacts acceleration, braking, and handling. Less rotational mass means the motor and brakes don’t have to work as hard, improving responsiveness and extending your brake pad’s life.
• Load Rating & Strength: The UP-03 wheels boast a remarkable 950kg (over 2,094 lbs) load rating per wheel, ensuring they can withstand the immense stresses of high-speed acceleration, cornering forces, and even off-road abuse. The super-strong I-beam spoke design eliminates wheel flex, providing unmatched stability and confidence during aggressive driving or track use.
• Design Features: A knurled barrel surface reduces tire slip during hard launches or drag racing scenarios, a detail we often see absent from factory wheels.
• Fitment specific for the Tesla Model X: Precise engineering guarantees perfect fitment to Model X center bore, brakes, TPMS, and Tesla lug nuts, so installation is seamless and reliable.

Motorsport Proven

The UP-03’s motorsport pedigree is unrivaled. Developed through countless hours of global track testing, time attack events, and racing competitions, these wheels have helped Unplugged Performance set track records and win trophies around the world.
