Wheels from Honda Pilot on Tesla Model 3: compatible?

Yes, the hub is identical

Same 5x114.3 PCD and same 64.1 mm centre bore: wheels from Honda Pilot bolt on and centre on Tesla Model 3 without rings. You still need to check the offset and tyres, detailed below.

Wheel by wheel: offset and tyres

Each original wheel from Honda Pilot is compared with the one from Tesla Model 3 of the same diameter: how much closer the wheel gets to the shock absorber or how far it sticks out of the wheel arch, and whether the tyre keeps the same overall diameter.

  • ≈7.5Jx18 ET55 · 245/60R18 — Fits like the original

    Compared with the original 8.5Jx18 ET40 on Tesla Model 3: shock absorber side +2.3 mm, wheel arch side −27.7 mm, tyre diameter +12.3 % : fit it with the original tyre size of Tesla Model 3 (235/45R18), not that of Honda Pilot. Comparison for guidance only (estimated width). Check in detail

  • ≈7.5Jx18 ET50 · 245/60R18 — Fits like the original

    Compared with the original 8.5Jx18 ET40 on Tesla Model 3: shock absorber side −2.7 mm, wheel arch side −22.7 mm, tyre diameter +12.3 % : fit it with the original tyre size of Tesla Model 3 (235/45R18), not that of Honda Pilot. Comparison for guidance only (estimated width). Check in detail

  • ≈7.5Jx16 ET45 · 235/70R16

    Tesla Model 3 has no 16-inch original wheel in our data: check the approved fitments and caliper clearance.

  • ≈7.5Jx17 ET45 · 245/65R17

    Tesla Model 3 has no 17-inch original wheel in our data: check the approved fitments and caliper clearance.

Before fitting the wheels

An identical hub is not enough: offset, width and diameter change the position of the wheel, and larger calipers can touch a smaller wheel. Original wheels often use bolts or nuts with a specific seat: keep the fixings intended for the wheel, with the thread of Tesla Model 3 (Ecrous - 14x1.50), tightened to the torque shown on its vehicle page. Finally, check that the size is among the approved fitments for your vehicle. This comparison is for guidance only: have the fitting approved by a professional.
