Great question. I am thinking that I would have problems with Tesla Roadside service as their spare wheel/tire might be a problem given there is no spare for the car. I am likely overthinking things :). Getting the performance brakes and better suspension is nice and I likely avoid warranty...

I think they don't offer it because they will need to accrue warranty reserves on their books and Wall Street might not like this. I am sure at some point, they will add it, but by waiting they get a better understanding for repair history.

thanks for responding. Too bad, there are no clear answers to this. This means it could be a problem with Tesla roadside service if they bring out a standard 19 inch wheel for a flat, etc.

thank you

Thank you so much for responding. I am wondering if i will be able to appreciate the suspension enhancements if I have 19 or 20 inch wheels? BTW, do you think the 19 inch OEM wheels will fit with the higher performance brake calipers?

what sucks is Tesla roadside service won't be able to bring you a spare tire if you have a flat if I have to go with a non Tesla wheel. thanks for responding,

Is this still the case that the 19 inch OEM wheels are not compatible with Model 3 Performance brakes?

I am trying to understand if there are real differences in M3 AWD and M3 Performance AWD suspension besides being about 1/2 inch lower. Tesla can't give me a clear answer. Ideally, I would like to buy the performance package (if there are goodies with the performance suspension), but sell/swap...

I am wondering if the Tesla OEM 19 wheels are compatible with the OEM Model 3 red performance brakes?

I do have a B pack. I likely have not done a range change since July.

Wondering. I did a full range charge. First one in a long time. Rated range was 256. I have 17k miles and I got the car in Dec 2012. So, what does this tell me? How much has my battery degraded? Any guesses? Latest SW. Thanks.

Hmmm. Maybe. There is a crossover where someone buying a used Tesla will be willing to walk away from the tax break for a new S purchase. While, buying a new car means eating the sales tax.

Parking sensor retrofit quote I am sitting on the quote in hand. It came out to be about $7447.49. The paint work alone was $2500 for front and rear bumpers. I really would like to see TM come out with a more aggressive program... even if it is after market supported.

My two cents. Get the bigger battery. We really don't know how well the battery will hold up with time and resale value will be very connected to the battery. For me, the novelty for moon-roofs fades rather quickly. I would pinch that option.
