Thanks. I have always liked the factory 22s for the X (old and the new ones). But, i like this design a little better :) .

From my initial observations, looks like the range did take a good amount of hit (~15%). I will have to go and check again. My wheels are about 32 lbs (F & R), which is about the same weight as the factory 20s; according to Tsportline, the factory 22s are 36 and 41 lbs I believe. But, the flush...

Haha; yep; the Michelin 4S tires were $2,562 shipped from Tirerack ;). But, not many options in those sizes, and they are good handling tires with decent tread-wear mileage. I also really like the sidewall design. Couple more photos in different angles to see how the flush, wide fitment bring...

Yep, I believe they are forged. No defects that I've noticed. Spec sheet that they gave me prior to production (~32 lbs).

Thanks. I had pointed out earlier in the thread, the wheels are made by Jova wheels. Costed me $1800 w/shipping from China. They can design pretty much any wheel I guess. They are a replica of the Cayenne Turbo GT wheels - the design of which Porsche seems to use on many of their cars like the...

Alright, finally got my new forged wheels and tires installed today on my X plaid. Thanks to this thread, I was able to order the right offsets and tire sizes. Wheels are 22x10.5 +30 w/ 265/35/22 22x11.5 +30 w/ 315/30/22 No rubbing so far, the wheels sit flush with a bit of poke. Enough...

Oh, ok; hopefully, the gossip turns out to be true :). Thanks for the reply. It would be interesting to see if the new pads provide more bite and firmness in the pedal.

I think your theory is correct; the SSs below from Tesla's website almost confirms it. The rears look very similar to the ceramic brake upgrade option. A bit of a bummer to not have these for older refresh owners like me.

How much lower is the car with the V2 lip? It looks amazing, btw. Tempting.

Such a clean design with the right mods :)

After a wash. The car is sublime with the MPP coilovers and other MPP stuff; should have done it sooner :).

Thanks. I am still on the Eibach bars, but switched the front to the softest setting, which seems like it is about 14% stiffer than stock. The rears are at full stiff. The reason for the rears is because I am still on a staggered setup with a beefy tire in the rear (285/30), so wanted to shift...

Based on some of the threads on this forum, you should be able to - with the right offset and the right camber, of course (may be some minor roll). Also, depends on how wide the tire is (tread width). MPP is running 305 square setup, so are many others that are tracking their car.

Your car looks great (I am sure the photo doesn't do it enough justice). I have seen some clean modded black model 3s like yours and they look amazing and all shiny. Makes me a bit jealous.

Some background: I have a 2018 M3P that I bought in Sep, 2018, and the only mods I did were the Tsportline M3115 staggered forged wheels, and sway bars fro Eibach (on full stiff). I got the sway bars simply because in the stock form, the car had way too much roll when you pushed it. The sway...
