21 Aero Design versus 21 Mission E design

I am likely ordering the new gen turbo S and have a question about wheel selection. If you get 21 aero and select the all season option, then the tire width increases to the 265 and 305 combo, not the narrower stock size with 285 in back. In addition the 21 aero wheel is cast. I prefer the looks of the new 21 mission in all turbonite, and it is a forged wheel so the weight should be similar or possibly lighter. The mission wheel is 1/2 wider. It would be interesting to know the range comparison with the same all season tire on 21's if there would be much difference? Thanks

Not sure about the US configurator, but in the European one when you change your spec (including tires) you will see the impact on the range when you go in the Technical specs summary for your configured car

I had no idea they did that. That's incredibly helpful, thanks!

Great info, thanks. On a turbo s with aero wheel 393 mile range, and with 21 mission e it loses 3 miles down to 390. Not bad considering it has the wider tires, no brainer to get wider rubber down to handle that power. New mission E wheel must be efficient
