Currently manufactured in limited quantities at Gigafactory Texas, the long-awaited Tesla Cybertruck was designed 18- and 20-inch wheels. The good folks at T Sportline offer no fewer than four alternatives for the bone-stock 20s, of which the most affordable set retails at $1,195 for all four corners.
Enter the TCS 20" Tesla Cybertruck Cyber Steelie, which – as implied – is made from steel. Forged steel alloy, that is, with each wheel tipping the scales at 47.7 pounds (make that 21.6 kilograms). Compatible with the rear-wheel-drive Cybertruck, the all-wheel-drive Cybertruck, as well as the range-topping Cyberbeast, said wheels come in satin black only.
As expected of the Atlanta, Georgia-based company, T Sportline developed the Cyber Steelie to work with the stock lug nuts, center caps, tire pressure monitoring sensors, and tires. Of course, there's zero percent risk of rubbing the tires against the fenders.
The next step up is the TCT 20" Tesla Cybertruck AeroMaxx Wheel at $2,395 per four units. Also finished in satin black, these wheels come with removable aero covers, hence the AeroMaxx in the name. The flow-formed wheels are joined by a set of forged wheels, namely the $4,995 CT7 20" Tesla Cybertruck Fully Forged Lightweight Tesla Wheel.
Also offered in 20 by 9.0 inches, these babies weigh 31.8 pounds (14.4 kilograms) per corner. Made from 6061 T6 aluminum alloy, said wheels are knurled to prevent tire slippage. The CT7s also happen to come in a variety of colors and finishes, beginning with matte black.

T Sportline co-founder Elie Rothstein is much obliged to show how badass one of the first ten Cybertrucks ever delivered looks with CT7s, albeit only on the driver side. On the passenger side, it's wearing the flow-formed TCTs mentioned earlier. The Foundation Series Cybertruck in the video below sweetens the deal with a matte-black wrap and Falken Wildpeak all-terrain rubber boots at every corner.
The forged wheels can also be hand in precisely 10 custom colors, beginning with Gloss Black and Diamond Black. The list continues with Anthracite Gray, Cyber Bronze & Candy Coat, Imperial Red, Brushed Satin & Candy Coat, Velocity Red, Champagne Rose & Candy Coat, EV Blue & Candy Coat, and in something called To Your Spec. Not surprising anyone, that means T Sportline can paint the CT7s to your precise liking.
At $6,595, they're not exactly affordable. T Sportline also offers CT6B beadlock off-road forged wheels at $5,415 per set in matte black or $6,515 in custom spec. The six-spoke wheel tips the scales at 43 pounds (19.5 kilos), and it’s made from aluminum alloy.
Going on a slight tangent, Cybertruck reservation holders shouldn't get their hopes up for a quick delivery. None other than Elon Musk said that high-volume production would be reached in anything between 12 and 18 months from the November 30 delivery event. According to Musk, annual production output will reach 250,000 trucks sometime in 2025.
