Tesla T3 with 2.5" tire installed

I got my T3 last week and also installed a 2.5" tire.  IMO the T3 should come from the factory with this tire.  The tire fits perfectly and the installation was an easier process due to Marty's 2.4" Enduro tire YT video that shows how to access the tire and reduce the number of steps while doing so.  Thank you very much Marty.  Also wanted to give a big thanks to Flip (YT EUC Chronicles) for the tire info.  His video shows the 2.5" tire installed and clearances.  I'll include the tire info in this post.

I put a couple miles on the 2.125" tire before the 2.5" installation.  Not much but enough to be able to briefly comment on the difference in the ride.  As others have stated, the 2.5" provides a little more stability.  My best description would be that's it's like taking a tire that is normally run at 40psi down to 25psi.  The feel is an overall increase in stiffness in straights and turns.  Also the 2.5" is a little taller.  I have provided a couple pics.  It looks like the tire is touching but I assure you it isn't.

Here is info on the tire I ordered from ebay.  MMG All-Terrain Tread 16x2.50 12in tire for Electric & Kid Bikes e-bikes BMX.
