larger wheels/tires are heavier.
heavier wheels/tires means more unsprung weight.
More weight means more power required to get them going.
more power means less range.
seems pretty obvious that they should be going with smaller, lighter, narrowing wheels and tires.
Not everyone is concerned with range. My new Model X has enormous 22-inch wheels and I’m fine with the range. My daily driving is about 50 miles or less. Electricity is very cheap for me. Road-trips are easy given the charging infrastructure available to me.
I’d rather have the appearance and handling benefits of bigger wheels versus the range and efficiency increase of smaller wheels.
