But you can't fit them over the brakes on this car. Best option is buy some aftermarket wheels and put the OEM in the shed.

But fairly normal for OEM service agents.

I have a Fiat Panda 100HP (yes I know opposite end of the scale) but it's 15 inch wheels with 195 R 50 tyres are very easy to buckle. I have two that are usable but need to be replaced. It's a special model so wheels are silly money and even more frustrating when it's an old car like mine. My point? Don't expect 17" wheels to cope much better on the heavy Tesla that's if they will fit over the brakes. But (assuming they will fit), I would get a set anyway and hope that next time only one gets wrecked so I can use the spare wheel.

I would certainly try to have them repaired and straightened. You need a specialist as they must be pre heated but the repair process would make good YT video.
