    Ear pain/Pressure help

    I installed the silicone tubing, 5/16" OD from HomeDepot. I bought 2 10' sections. They didn't have 20' but you won't be able to insert 1 piece and go all the around in one go. I did it in 2 and some people do it in 3. I used soapy water to lubricate and a funnel to pour it forward down the...

    Model Y Suspension Advice

    I'm planning on getting Konis from TireRack. However, I checked with them and they don't have any installers who work on Teslas in the San Francisco Bay Area. They recommended talking to Tesla. Has anyone used Tesla to install third party shocks? Anyone know anyone in the Bay Area? LA? (I need...

    Which Model Y AWD would you get? (Factory/Engine/Options/Etc)

    You switched your MY from stock 245/45 R19 to the M3 235/45R18 wheels+tires?

    Debating the switch to 18 inch wheels from the 20 inch inductions

    30.03". Hmmm. Even the MPP lift kit only increases that to 29.5" diameter.

    Debating the switch to 18 inch wheels from the 20 inch inductions

    The Model 3 Gen 2 Aero rims are 18" diameter, 8.5" wide with a 40mm offset and a 750kg load capacity.

    Debating the switch to 18 inch wheels from the 20 inch inductions

    @Discount Tire, for the Model Y I see 235/55R18 XL recommended when switching down to 18" rims. However, Hankook doesn't make an Ion Evo in exactly that size. Would there be any problems putting the Evo SUV 235/65 R18 on a Model 3 gen2 Aero rim for the Model Y? I'm just looking for summer...

    Do you have the Hankook Ion EVO summer tires?

    18" wheel on model Y

    I have a 2024 MYLR with 19" Geminis wearing OEM 255/45R19s. I'm looking for comfort. There are some takeoff M3 Highland Photons with 235/45R18 Hankooks available. That seems like just less tire. I can imagine it might be more efficient but definitely less comfortable. So is the only way to...

    Which Model Y AWD would you get? (Factory/Engine/Options/Etc)

    The curb weight for the MYLR is 4,398 lbs. The curb weight for the M3LR is 4,034 lbs. That 750 kg load rating is really there for worst case with trailering which I won't be doing. But this guy covers it in more depth...

    Which Model Y AWD would you get? (Factory/Engine/Options/Etc)

    I'd have gotten the RWD LFP if it was available in the US. So I instead got an Inventory MYLR with a toe hitch with the standard 19" Gemini wheels. I'm looking to swap those Geminis for 18" M3 Photons.

    Model Y Suspension Advice

    The Model 3 Photon wheels are 18X8.5J offset 38. The Model Y Gemini wheels are 19X9.5J offset 45. Would that swap work for comfort?

    Model Y Suspension Advice

    BTW, this guy calls out part numbers. So I think Tesla Service was bullshitting me about no change. It's possible I got an MYP suspension.

    Koni - Special Active (Red - Formerly FSD) and Sports (Yellow) - Coming Soon for Model 3 and Y

    Koni packages them into a kit for just about every car … except Tesla. But I think that's just a typo/oversight. Hopefully Koni gets back to you. https://www.koni-na.com/en-US/NorthAmerica/Products/Cars/1165-Special-Active-Lowering-Kit(Red)/
