Well, here goes nothing..... 20x11 et35 up front, and 20x12 et22 in the rear ordered, and getting custom drilled now. Now to find tires while I wait. ^Winter wheels/tires coming off and going to storage until the next flurry season.

Wait for a further price drop and buy two. ;)

I'm still holding the "bag" when it comes to RIDE stock (Lordstown Motors). They at least seemingly had a good business model starting off. But as we are seeing with Fisker, these early EV startups are finding success hard to come by.

Your tires are taller than mine. I wanted to run wider and more low profile. The half inch difference in height would show a lot more with stock links. If we measure our cars you would see mine is definitely lower (bodywise) to the ground.

I would assume more expensive than being about to shop around for a better rate. And even in the UK there is Lender Placed Hazard protection or Collateral Protection Insurance, that lenders can utilize. Regardless of the country, lenders want some form of protection.

I would assume the financing company would provide the insurance via their own means.

That form was included in my Turbotax filing. But like you mentioned, my assumption is Colorado didn't get the MVPA, or my registration (oddly enough). So hopefully my documents get reviewed quickly, as I already earmarked those funds 😁

What you described, sounds about right. I couldn't attach any additional docs. But the Fed paid out the $7500 without the same missing docs which is somewhat odd. I have since submitted a "Protest" with all the required information. Not sure the timeline on that process.

Just received my Colorado tax refund, and it looks like the $5k EV credit wasn't with the deposit, although it showed up on my Tax Form. Any ideas or experience with the credit?

Correct the my selected tire size is undersized compared to OEM. But I was more concerned with the load rating of the tires, and they are within spec. And I just went off a comment on this site where someone reached out to the manufacturer and confirmed they would work.

I have 3mm up front. And am on the N2itive lowering links. Planning on an alignment soon.

10.5 Square. I "plan" to have a summer set of wheels/tires. Still debating on if I can run a staggered 20x11, 20x12 setup. But I still have time to research.

Aodhan AFF7 5x120 et35 Bronze Wheels. Cars still a little dirty, as the touch-less car wash isn't the greatest, but it's better than brushes decimating the paint...... Sorry for the lighting....

What do you consider an "intervention"?

Something is being lost in the back and forth. I already have my refreshed 23 MX before the pricing change. I was responding to you saying the MX is no longer available for the Tax Credit. I was just clarifying a "Base" (no options added) MX is still eligible for the credit.

Kinda on topic, but one of the most impressive installs I’ve seen on an MX. Log into Facebook

The "Base" MX is still $10 under $80k.

Where are you seeing there is no longer a Tax Credit for the MX? Or am I just misunderstanding your reply.

That's pretty grimy!

WHOA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Finally had the opportunity to register the car............ You have GOT to be kidding me! $1700! And Colorado roads are in the state of disrepair they are in..... Pass!!! Ended up swapping plates with my wife's car, and just had to pay around $370. But wow, was...

Same here. But I still bought a fob for those "just-in-case" moments.

If you aren't already, follow this thread: Deliveries of $80k X?

Just curious how long it took Tesla to send your Registration documents in, and how long after purchase you were able to go in and get plates. My temp tags run out Jan 17, 2024. Purchase date Nov 20th. Thanks!

I've bought more wheel and tire combos than I care to remember, and it's rare I run into this issue, especially with new wheels. So honestly wasn't expecting to run into a problem. In the future, I'll be sure to pay more attention to the barrel design. Most wheels don't have that step.

I got them from JNC directly. And there were no vehicle specific references. But yeh, the inner lip is the issue. Now to hopefully flip them on Marketplace.

Nope. JNC026’s. Didn’t realize the inner lip would cause an issue. And I can’t return them.

Just found out my wheels aren’t big enough for the calipers….. Ughhhhhhh. So tomorrow I put the stocks back on!!!! Wow!

One thing I just noticed with my aftermarket wheels and tires, is they are a much lower profile than stock, which means I may need to use a lower setting than intended to make up for the lower tire profile.

I went with Tuxmat, really like how the sides protect the interior. *Not of my car*

Got my new lugs in. Will probably put the wheels/tires and lowering links on next weekend.

Did you escalate your issue? If you have the old rate confirmed and the window, I'd use that as justification. I didn't have mine signed until after the rate hike, but still received the 3.99.

Still the 1% discount?

It was an overcast day so that may have played a role in how dark it looks?!? But it's not a "bright" red in my opinion regardless of lighting. Probably the darkest red I've owned, and I too have had red German cars. My Brilliant Red Audi My Red Jetta TDI Sportswagen Red BMW 328d The BMW...

I haven’t left this thread behind even though I picked up 11/20. Plan on putting the OEM wheels in storage bags, and putting on my aftermarket wheels and N2Itive lowering links in the next week or so. Tuxmats have been installed, just waiting on the trunk to come back in stock. Was quoted $1600...

That ain't right!!! 😆

In their defense, they did mention "any brand new engineering techniques". The air suspension in the Tesla and other makes has been around for 20+ years on OEM's. The hydraulic suspension Porsche is showing above isn't as widely adopted by OEM's (yet). That said, I wouldn't need 3 generations to...

What do you consider "soon"? The have entered the market with their buses in the US. But all the articles I've seen say that BYD doesn't have imminent plans to bring their cars to the US.

Not that it helps you, but my process, was pretty seamless.

That post is from 2022.

Curious as to some current thoughts, as the Tesla Wall Charger is now $475, VS a well reviewed $380 Emporia: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09ZNN3JB7/ref=ewc_pr_img_1?smid=A2MZON57HPVTEJ&th=1

Thanksgiving Holiday?

Like I said, you have a right to be upset. But I was simply sharing there are no guarantees. You SHOULDN'T have had to deal with the problems you are. And Tesla should be taking more pride in their work. You may jump over to BMW or Merc, and not have a single issue. Just like some have gotten...

I have no doubt you are frustrated, and you have every right to be. Just know that no car or manufacturer is perfect. https://www.ixforums.com/threads/lemon-law-update.2450/ https://mbworld.org/forums/eqs/843202-need-honest-support-very-serious-safety-issues.html...

Trust me I get what you are saying, and think it's a legit review. But for me living in Wyoming, and Colorado, I've made the choice to have winter tires on every vehicle I pay insurance for. My old fwd Jetta wagon got me over Monarch Pass during one of the worst snowstorms I've ever been in, no...

Yeh, I just bought wheel/tire storage bags. I'll put the OEM's in there once I swap them out. I already have aftermarket wheels/tires and TPMS. Probably swap them out beginning of December. Though with our current snow fall, I for sure wish I had them on leaving the dealer.

What wheels did you end up going with?

I only used the messaging portal. FedChoice normally got back to me pretty quickly. And that way I had everything documented.

Ughhh, go figure…. This is what I’ll be bringing the car home too. Hope the new tires are legit....
