    Lowering the Model 3

    @Firehuntah , awesome job R&D'ing (or more trial & erroring it)! Have you considered reaching out to MPP and/or Stanceparts to come up with an out-of-the-box solution based on your setup? I've always wanted aircups alongside a coilover setup (for the exact same reasons as you) but never found...

    Eibach Sway Bars Finally Available?

    Bumping up a semi-old thread from the dead... Hey, when you consider how "old" the 3 is, this thread is ancient! For those that have installed the Eibach sway bars, any updates after several months and additional miles of use? Any NVH, major shifting, paint scuffs, etc? I bought a set on Black...

    Aftermarket Wheels on Model 3

    Mind sending me the contact info of the local (presumably Calgary?) wheel and tire shop? I've only been able to source the standard multi-pattern spacers through UrbanX locally. Would like to have something that can clear that hub bolt without having to take it off!

    Aftermarket Wheels on Model 3

    Mind elaborating on why not wanting to use the Firehawk Indy 500s again as a street-only tire? I've only read countless good things about them (bang for buck anyway). No, they're not PS4S performance but they're well worth the performance for their price is my understanding, especially when...

    RE71R AutoX life? eedback?

    Can't speak on the direct life of the RE71R's, especially when used in a high friction environment like AutoX. A lot of variables will impact the tire life expectancy, such as how "smooth" your driving style is through the cones, what are the ambient & pavement temps on race day(s), how coarse...

    Go to after market accessories store for Tesla

    The only company I know of that sells Model 3 items IN Canada is: www.teslashop.ca but they only have a limited assortment of products. Otherwise, www.evitems.com (over $50 USD spent) or www.tsportline.com (periodic free shipping sales) ship for free to Canada under the mentioned conditions...

    Performance Brakes fitting 20" Sport Wheels

    Thanks for clarifying #Daniel in SD! It's what I was trying to convey; you just explained it better than I could.

    Performance Brakes fitting 20" Sport Wheels

    The Performance brake rotors have an extra lip on them that only the Performance 20" rims have the notch cut out for. The OEM 20" rims from Tesla's website doesn't have the notch cut out on the hub to fit the OEM Performance brake rotors. That said, you can simply add a 3-5mm spacer over the...

    Replacement Parts

    PDR will cost a fraction of the insurance deductible in this case, PLUS paying out of pocket for PDR will not increase your insurance premiums once a claim is made.

    Aftermarket Wheels on Model 3

    Enough with the supply/demand talk about carbon rims. Let's see some pics!! I'll start... Can finally post up my reveal. WedsSport SA20R rims (20x9.5 et38) with 3mm [F] / 5mm [R] spacers. Looks like I have a bit of room to go 5/10mm spacers; just need to find 10mm spacers that fit M14 studs...

    Aftermarket Wheels on Model 3

    Big reveal coming from my end...soon! Different wheels for sure (hint, it's J-spec and forged). I just finished drilling them out from M12 to M14 - it's actually a lot easier (and much less concerning) than most people make it. I simply bought a (rather expensive) 5/8" reamer, attached it to a...

    anyone use paintless dent repair on their model 3?

    I was spraying tire shine on my tires after a car wash and slipped on the ice (a few months ago obviously). I still had the can in my hand so my first reaction was to make sure the can was far away from the car. I ended up putting a nice sized dent on the rear door with my elbow! Forget tennis...

    Widest tires on 19x9" Rims

    It looks like the OP has the PS4S's on his rims. Michelin's tend to run a "wider" tread pattern and a more "square" look than same sized tires from other brands. In fact, the P3D+'s 235/35R20s run more like that of a 255 width from other brands. I'm actually planning on running my PS4S in...

    What are easiest and budget friendly mods to give our new M3 a slightly individual look?

    Tesla Performance Emblem I have the same on the back of mine... I love it!

    P3D+ misc info and pics- wheel weight, calipers, suspension

    Yeah, I noticed the option to choose different wheel stud sizes too, but it doesn't fully answer my inquiry. Perhaps let me rephrase my question, if anyone has used M12 spacers before for JDM-spec'd wheels, are the "receiving" holes (the ones that the car's wheel studs are threaded through) on...
