aside: i've never had brake fluid changed on any car i've owned, ever. the longest i had a car was about 8 years too.
You should do it every 30k. Water gets in the fluids, followed by mold and algae. Definitely the most neglected maintenance item in every car. Treat that LC right!
Finally got my new wheels put on. Hard to beat BC Forged wheels for the price. Fully forged wheels, variety of colors (mine are brushed dark black), custom offsets, knurled bead to stop tire slippage and unbelievably light. For a little more money than flow formed/hybrid forged they are worth it and only took 5 weeks from order date to my door.
Correct in the back, the fronts are 265/40/20. The front wheel width is the same as stock at 9.5” and the rear are .5” wider at 11”. Stock tires were 255 front and 285 rear.
The interesting thing is for Teslas the torque on the lugs are 129 lbs ft and I’m not used to that much which is a little weird. Also, for some reason many people use the stock lugs and put cheap plastic caps on them. I just ordered the lug caps from Amazon for $15 and received them today but forgot to put them on.

Both don't mention what the caps are made from. For that cost I suspect they are plastic.
That's why I was curious to know which ones @patgilm got as he mentioned that most people get the cheap plastic ones. I got mine from Tesla directly and they are plastic.
