Cybertruck Spare Tire + Change Tool Kit Available Now in Official Tesla Shop

[Redacted Profile]

Looks like you can only purchase if you have a Cybertruck VIN tied to your account. That is a good thing to keep the borders away

Sadly, it is a good deal for the whole package.
Basically, you get the tire change kit for free.
A OEM rim is generally about $600 alone. (Or, it used to be.)

Is this the same size as the foundation upgraded wheel - or (it seems) just a temp spare.. this is not a full size is it? Sorry for the ignorance.

Going off the photo - Full replacement, not a cheap steel rim and tire.
(Of course, just going off the photo.)

I found out you can only buy this if you have taken delivery. I tried to order before a VIN, with a VIN and lastly after delivery. I could only buy it after delivery. It ships to a service center and you have to schedule an appointment for the service center to set the wheel in the truck bed. My appointment is next week, fingers crossed.

Q: How many Aggies does it take to change a flat tire?
A: Two. One to hold the drinks, and one to call for help

I have an appointment for next week too. Hopefully they already have the tire or it’ll be there in time

I want to get this, but I know I won't have it in my truck when I need it because it takes up bed space that I put the dirt bikes in - eg for riding days or camping days - aka in the CO mountains where cell and Tesla roadside service is spotty.

Not too steep for and identical full size spare wheel-tire… and goodies

$0.02

I imagine this can be primarily valuable to have where Tesla Road service is least likely. But then again, I’ve never had to contact them yet

I carry an emergency inflator with a tire plugging kit. I wouldn't carry around all that cargo wherever I go if someone gifted it to me. Much easier to perform an emergency repair than jacking and wrestling that monster.

No they don’t but that’s the way they sell it.

Thanks for finding this out! I guess it prevents someone from buying them out and reselling at a markup

As of June 17, It's back in stock of anyone is interested.

$400 CyberTruck spare tire on eBay and $25 tire cover from Amazon. Works for me.

I placed an order last night but, curiously, can't get a service appointment for "installation" until mid-July. When I ordered a winter wheel/tire set for my Model S from Tesla it didn't take that long and they actually mounted all four wheels onto my car. In this case I think they just drop the tire in the bed and strap it down.

Anyone actually have one purchased and "installed" as of yet? Just trying to get a sense of how much space it really takes and whether it might be worth getting the vault divider to keep stuff and tire separate.
