Same I am happy with the blizzak. Just as an aside I am interested to know if I use the stock wheel tire as a spare on if it will affect driving etc given the very small size difference .
The difference of 45 inches versus 44 inches is only about a 2% change which should be acceptable. I believe Tesla allows up to 3%. I would not run it all the time that way, just until you get your repair done. The bigger difference you’re likely to encounter is having a snow tire compound on three of your tires and a regular compound on your spare that will have a more notable effect on traction performance, etc..
