Hi Y'all, I have the shims installed within a week of my Model S P delivery. I'm running 20 x 10 square. The car has 6K miles. As you can tell I do not have any excessive wear. Hopefully this will help those who have excessive inner tire wear. I was also informed by the Tire techs... If you...

🙏

I have 2,000+ miles on my 2023 MSP 20" square t s p o r t line wheels with the m a c b o o s t shims. The vibration is sometimes quite severe when driving for the first time in the morning. It goes away but comes back every now and then not as severe. If the vibration goes away when you select...

I received the latest update (I think), it is 2023.44.30.6, I also did a reboot after. My 2023 MSP has 20" square setup I have 2200+ miles. I still have the vibration between 30-50 mph. It occurs with the low, medium and high height settings. Strange that it occurs sometimes and sometimes...

Thanks for that heads up PropofoIn. I checked the site: 2023.44.1 Official Tesla Software Update - Teslascope but I don't see any release notes on this. Where do you see this mentioned?

Did you install the rear m a c s b o o s t camber shims?

Hi S1rk, I have a 2023 MSP ultra red and I do feel the steering and pedal vibration when gradually accelerating from 30-50mph. It goes away after that. Strangely, the vibration does not occur everytime between 30-50mph. I have abut 1100 miles on the odometer. Do you still have the vibration...

What kind of vibration are you experiencing NeuroRad? When does it happen. I'm experiencing it too...2023 MSP led than 1k miles.

I've been checking around for places that do wheel alignment in Ft. Lauderdale and haven't found any. Can anyone help? I have a model s and I want to get the wheel alignment prior to installing new tires. Thanks!!

Congrats GonePlaid! I guess going from a RAM TRX with that exhaust would be quite a contrast. I'm scheduled for mine on 10/14 also but I'm sticking to that date, hopefully the Gods are on my side when it comes to fit and finish. Keep us posted.!!

Makes me think whether I should hold off on taking my delivery this month, lose the $250 deposit for $? Then again my trade-in will depreciate more since I'm trading my 2019 M3Pstealth so it may balance out anyway. Se la vie.

👍

tatoweb - your MS P/Lr looks like Ultra Red? I'm getting my MS in Ultra Red this month also. Can you provide your wheel info? Thanks.

I'm curious, what's the source of the inventory levels? Your explanation is definitely plausible.

With the current negative news that Tesla is not making the #s for whatever reasons (probably because of retooling) does anyone think they'll drop the MS or MX price in the US to achieve the #s for the 4th quarter?

Thanks for the heads up btec 116. Replacing stock 19"s with $2k flow forged wheels and mounting the tires from the OEM wheels make $ sense. If I go to 20" square, I'd have to fork out $3.5k. Replacing tires on a square setup runs a few hundred less and has the benefit of tire rotation. Going to...

True dat Yelobird. But sometimes there's someone out there with a ton load of new knowledge and that could add to the knowledgebase. New products are always coming out.

Can someone chime in on this. Is the rear camber issue being discussed above regarding the premature wearing of the rear tires when driving in low height mode? If yes, from what I've read on some threads, it can be eliminated by making sure the rears are at least 42 to 45 psi + and avoid driving...

Thank you for that great response btec116. Great information. I will not be a very frequent track rat, probably do some high speed runs at the Miami-Homestead Speedway a few times/yr to stretch the MSP legs rather than on public roads & risking going to jail or dropping $ for fines. So, I...

Thank you for this. I have a EDD 2nd week in October 2023. I'll definitely use this!!

I test drove the MSP with the Tempest wheels. The ride was not that harsh, tolerable, the suspension was in comfort mode. I went over some train tracks and compared to my M3 Stealth Performance with aftermarket 19", it was noticeable less jaring. I planning to go aftermarket with 19s with the...

Wow, 3 MSP owners 2b. Nice, looking forward to mine with a black interior. Any issues on delivery?

I pulled the trigger yesterday so I'm right behind you. MSP ultra red, black interior, 19" wheels (to be upgraded). No VIN yet. Waiting for Tesla to give me a trade-in $. I too will miss my M3Stealth P.

Well said, couldn't have said it any better. Improving the 0-60 time from 2secs to 1.75secs or 1.5secs I really don't care either!!

Just ordered a MSP no delivery date yet. What can an owner do to improve the braking performance for everyday driving and some light track duty? Suggestions were: brake fluid with higher thermal capacity, upgraded brake lines. t s p o r t l i n e has a brake upgrade for $5K, must have 20"...

Thanks for responding officerchuck, so, Carmax's offer was better than the 1st 3 you mentioned?

go to: t s p o r t l i n e d o t c o m the wheel is TSF

Congrats!!

Here's the 19s I'm planning to get. I figure since the spokes are thin the red calipers will stand out more + the gloss black will match the gloss of the ultra red paint + since its gloss black brake dust may not cling to it as easy as a matte black finish + when the tires are clean and have...

Pulled the trigger on a Ultra Red MSP. Currently have my '19 M3P stealth to trade-in. Car G u r u s refused to consider it. T is giving me 28K, I think they'll lowball me when it's delivery time since the estimated delivery is Oct-Nov. Any suggestions on where I can sell it for a better...

I'm planning on getting the TSF 19 from t sport line they are having a 10% disc + free shipping, ends 9/22 this Friday.

I hear you loud and clear, I'm not driving my M3P till I take delivery. Gives me a *hitload of anxiety when driving it.

Sep 30 is 11 days away, does pushing cars out the door for last qtr delivery result in shoddy assembly? If I wait till Oct, I realize my trade-in will definitely take a hit. Does delivery in Oct-Dec result in the vehicle being a 2024 model year?

I'm thinking of putting my order for a MSP. I too have an initial trade in valuation. So, I'm just like you guys, ItalianoNC and Faksnima...preparing to get the shaft when they reduce the trade-in $. Question, is there any benefit in holding off ordering near the end of September to get a...

Hi Sean, you mentioned that the upper control arms were replaced. Can you describe the symptoms that would indicate they needed changing? Thanks!

Thank you for your insight Gauss Guzzler. I'm thinking of pulling the trigger on a 2021/2022 M3P and I have 19" aftermarket wheels that I'm planning to replace the 20" uberturbine wheels with but was kinda hesitant to go through the process of selling them.

Quick question...the M3P is lowered compared to the other M3 variants. Is the ride that much stiffer/bumpier?

Is is possible to select 18" instead of the 20" uberturbine?

I'm looking to pull the trigger on the M3P. Can anyone tell me if it is possible to select the 18" wheels instead of the 20" and whether there's a credit if I take the 18"?

I totally agree with vickh. I have NEVER had this issue with the 10 cars I've owned - American-German-Japanese (No Korean, Swedish). This "vinegar" odor may be a health hazard...in the long run...who knows what it does to our lungs. This is definitely a design flaw by Tesla. If there are...

I used Wheel Offset Calculator to see what the effect would be. See attachment. 1. Will I have any rubbing issues when I perform a 100% wheel turn if I go with the 265-35-19? 2. Anyone know how much of a efficiency hit I will take since the tire width will change from 9.3" to 10.4"? 3. I may...

You did good...I mean you did great 'apples'. Thank you for taking the time to document your analysis.

Thanks for the heads up on this DaFunGuy. I checked the link you provided and it did not indicate the amperage requirements. On this thread, there's concern that the cig adapter is 12 amps and using anything requiring > 12 amps may blow the fuse. Can you check if the amperage is indicated in...

I have a Stealth Performance M3. I was looking at T S p o r t l i n e wheels and I asked whether they could replace the 235/40/19 tire with a +1 size (255/35/19) when I purchase the wheel+tire package. They would not do the +1 size, they say they do not recommend it. Using this online...

Thanks for the heads up fajitamondays! This can be quite disconcerting to owners of the Model Y. You purchase a SUV Ev and expect it to perform like a SUV but it cannot. I was thinking of trading up to the Model Y in a few years when I get tired of having to bend to sit in the car. I...

So, we have a lot of opinions on this topic but opinions are just opinions. Summer is here and so are the thunderstorms. What is considered a "safe" level of standing water a Tesla Model 3 can traverse? Most people buy the Model Y for the space and the higher seating. I know an added benefit...

FYI. I got the plain Suma mirrors, non blue, $149.00. There were two push on connectors that I connected. The third may be for dimming or for the defroster. Use a pointed pliers to extract them since they are on pretty tight. Just to be cautious, since both are black, after detaching the wire...

I typically drive on the interstate where I find myself on multi lane (3-5) lanes and I have to maneuver around vehicles. I agree with what TLLMRRJ posted. I have my mirrors positioned just like that. I went 2+ more steps. I bought a convex mirror that attaches to my rear view mirror. It's 14"...

Rain was pouring and wiper was on as I pulled up to speak at the drive thru to order. As soon as I cracked my window to order and the wiper began to wipe from bottom of windshield, all the water wiped came into the car. Since it was raining hard, a $*it load of water came in and soaked the...
