    Pic request: 275/40 tire on 20" Inductions (Michelin Pilot AS4)

    Not Inductions but this is my winter setup - 275/40R20 Nokian Hakkapelliita R5s on 20" TSW Pescara bronze wheels.

    Buying a Model Y soon! Wheels/tires?

    I sold my 21" Ubers and got 21" forged wheels that weigh 10 lbs lighter than the Ubers. Regardless If they're open-faced, I still get about 8-10% efficiency with this setup compared to the OEM Model Y Performance wheel.

    Planning a Road Trip & Cutting it Close

    I have done Edmonton-Kelowna which is a 2200 kms (1367 mi) roundtrip twice already and have not had any issues with charging nor I try and maximize my efficiency (I rock 21" wheels during the Summer). No need to worry about it - just plug your destination in the Tesla Navigation and it will do...

    From Y to Audi e-tron: a Comparison

    ok gotcha. Before going with the Y, I briefly considered the E-Tron as well as the Ionia 5 but I guess my very good experience with the test drive and the chance of owning a Tesla is far too great to disregard.

    From Y to Audi e-tron: a Comparison

    I replaced my '15 Sorento SX with the MYP, so feel free to ask me anything. I've had the ICE for 7 years and at 115K before I sold it. Very dependable SUV which was a tank in snow if you're equipped with proper snow tires. Bulletproof AWD system and decent on gas even having a v6 at 291 HP...

    How to match tint? Is windshield worth it?

    I would say in most states in US and provinces in Canada, it's illegal. Here in my city though the only time you'll get a ticket for tint is usually an add-on violation if you've been pulled over. I have it and imo I think it's more of a frowned-upon thing here unless it's limo tint.

    How to match tint? Is windshield worth it?

    Did you mistype winshield instead of windows? I don't think anyone is suggesting to get 20% on their windshield.

    How to match tint? Is windshield worth it?

    You're correct - 20% for the front windows perfect matches the back if you don't touch it. I don't recommend front tint.

    Model Y tint pictures

    I have white interior as well and I think my 20% tint matches the back widow that only have the OEM tint from Tesla. 15% for me would be too dark to see out at night.

    Model Y tint pictures

    Took a photo yesterday and this shows how matched my front and rear window tints are. Mind you, the back window is factory and the front has 20% Xpel Ceramic tint.

    Accident on 1st Day :(

    IDK about you guys in Colorado but the vehicles and the (unfortunate) accidents I have had in the past, as with my relatives and family in Canada - are all reported to CarFax. They are very trustworthy source of vehicle history and information up here so I find your stance with them...

    Accident on 1st Day :(

    If OP would go through a Tesla-certified bodyshop, I'm 100% sure it would be reported. There's no option of not reporting it as that touches the line regarding honesty and even fraud. If I'm buying a second-hand vehicle, I would not be happy if I discovered an accident or two that's not...

    Accident on 1st Day :(

    Sorry this happened to you, OP but life isn't fair. I had a hit-and-run on my 3-week old Y last year and it took 4.5 months to repair and my insurance paid close to 5K to the shop to get it to factory condition. We never found the guy and had to pay my deductible for the Tesla to be fixed to...

    Idk about you guys but my '22 MYP got the Brembo rear brakes as well. I think Q4 2022 onwards they got the Mando rear brakes.
