About the 255/45R19 size
Tesla Model Y 19 in size and one of the fastest-growing sizes in the US, V/W rated XL. Foam-lined EV tires reduce cabin noise; the OE Continental ProContact RX is widely stocked.
The numbers mean: 255 mm section width, sidewall height 45 % of that width, and a 19-inch rim. Overall diameter works out to about 28 inches. Any replacement has to match all three, and the load index and speed rating on your door sticker must be met or exceeded. Our guide on reading a tire size walks through it.

What vehicles use 255/45R19 tires?
255/45R19 is original equipment on Tesla Model Y (2020-2024, 19 in Gemini), Ford Taurus (2010-2019, SEL/Limited), Tesla Model S (2021-2024, 19 in front), Lincoln MKT (2010-2019) and Porsche Panamera (2010-2016, 19 in front), among others. Always confirm with the sticker inside your driver's door, because trim levels and wheel packages can change the size.
What is the best 255/45R19 tire?
For most drivers our mid-range pick, the Falken Azenis FK460 A/S Silent Core, is the sweet spot of price and tread life. If you keep the vehicle a long time or drive in heavy rain and snow, the Continental ProContact RX is worth the extra. On a tight budget the Lexani LX-Twenty is a sound choice.
Can I replace just one or two 255/45R19 tires?
On a front- or rear-wheel-drive car, yes: replace in pairs on the same axle and put the newer pair on the rear. On all-wheel-drive vehicles most makers want all four replaced together, or a new tire shaved to match, because a difference in circumference strains the drivetrain.
