ES’s are FWD.

Has anyone that installed the special active shocks have any weird sounds over low speed bumps? It sounds like a double bump or knock when I hit a bump in the road around 30kmh/20mph. Doesn’t seem to make that sound any other time. I checked and rechecked all the torques. Nothing was loose...

You can get the part numbers off of Tesla EPC catalog (just search the web and you’ll find it). They charged $0.50 a piece for the smaller ones and $1.00 a piece for the bigger ones. I would also suggest getting some spares of the upper strut nuts in case you drop them into the abyss.

Is that windy like winding roads or windy like a breeze?

Oh, I bet my car has a lot more rattles than your car does.

Just got back from the alignment shop. The car drives a lot smoother over crappy roads. It feels more like a normal car now. This is with my 235/55R18 XL104 Nokian Hakka R3 SUV’s on as it’s still winter here. So far, I’m quite pleased with the change. The car is a mid 2020 MYLR with the Koni...

It was a long day, but they’re on now. Getting an alignment tomorrow. Will reserve judgement until after that is done.

SL tires don’t change their load rating above 36 psi (or 35 psi on p-metric tires). I have always wondered about running SL tires with the same load rating as XL tires, but don’t have any experience on the issue.

Did you buy SL tires or XL tires? The factory tires are XL 104. If you have 235/55R18 XL tires, they are also 104. You still need 42 psi for that to match the 42psi in the factory tires. Is the an AWD or RWD Model Y?

Installed the Special actives on the rear of my 2020 MYLR. Will install the fronts next weekend. So far, they seem to make a big difference smoothing out bumps.

Has it been raining?

Looks good! Staggered or did you put 295 in the front too? Did they rub?

Are they quiet? My Hakka R3 SUVs are really loud. These are being replaced by the WRG5 Remedy this month. So, I may consider that.

You need new tires. 255/45R19 XL 104 Is the correct size.

I would assume $145 in 2016 was around a Billion Dollars today… 🤣 Also, these new tires are DWS06 Plus, which is a new version of the DWS06, which is a new version of the DWS.
