    Winter Tires?

    The winter wheel package offered by Tesla will fit the Performance. To be honest, I think the only reason they exist is for an easy, overpriced winter option for Performance models. I gonna assume V rating because that's what it reads on the enlarged image.

    Winter Tires?

    I got the same VikingContact 7 as @seniorcitizen. I'm quite happy with the performance and price. I was able to grab them off blackcircles.ca early September for $93 CDN per tire. I have them mounted on the Gemini/Apollo wheels and are noticeably quiet. I was gonna go with the gold standard...

    Aero Wheel Cap Kit

    I posted some pics of my Y with the Gemini Wheel Cap Kit in the Pics of white Y with and without Gemini covers thread. On page one of that same thread, there's a picture of the wheel with the aero cap kit installed. Cheers!

    Aero Wheel Cap Kit

    The cap kits are interchangeable as long as you stick with the factory lugs. As for the wheel lock it probably varies. The lock shape and height may not work with the plastic cap. The kits are pricey but are good quality. Both look good on the naked Gemini wheel.

    Regen Braking Temporarily Reduced - Every time

    @HeyEph, I ran into a similar issue and had a SC appointment to look at it. They ended up replacing the Battery System Control Unit. Essentially I was getting the Regen dialogue non stop once the temperatures got colder. At one point my regen was weak sauce and never got any stronger as the...

    Financing Tesla vehicles in Canada

    @canadianeh Great job on the downpayment! The interest is front loaded key term amortization in the finance documentation. The MAX cost of financing is identified, you will never pay the bank more than this amount. If you pay out earlier or make lump sum payments into the principal the cost...

    Financing Tesla vehicles in Canada

    Financing is generally front loaded. You'll eat about 80% of the 84 months total interest in the first 4 years.

    Financing Tesla vehicles in Canada

    @Gioreyes94, Lazy/sloppy wording/updates on the Tesla website. There are no buyout options for the 3 and Y, you have to return the vehicle. Only the X and S have buyout options. Lease-End Options

    Anyone bought Replica r241 19x9.5 for their new Model Y?

    @PhantomY Car and Username match, looks sick! @Mollydek Thanks, like most things she's imperfectly perfect. Wheels are Satin Black and do have a gloss. I feel the inductions are the optimal choice from a visual perspective but finances & usability are my priorities. I was an early order so...

    Anyone bought Replica r241 19x9.5 for their new Model Y?

    I have the 35mm offset on mine. The 45mm option might be new (matches stock gemini specs), I don't recall seeing it last month. Both will work on the model Y, the 35 mm will stick out slightly more (around 10mm). The wheels have a slight concave face so it works well. I uploaded a pic on Page...

    Paint Mismatch Survey

    19****, Front and rear bumpers are definitely a warmer hue. Looks identical to @Kahuna555 During a walk with the dog, I checked out other white front/rear bumpers. It's at least 60% mismatches. Every manufacturer is guilty, the best match I saw was a Chevy Aveo - near perfect wtf. After awhile...

    Model Y for Canada!

    The shop I went to mentioned the same but not limited to the model Y. He showed a few pictures where the front fender peeled (model 3 - none of his projects yet) but mentioned XPEL has been directing him to give prospective customers a heads up.
