Thanks! Which location?

Added some pics. Make an offer.

Humpty Bumpty...

These are the Michelin Primacy MXM4 tires. They came off of our brand new '23 Tesla Model 3 we just picked up. No issues with the tires, just switched to run flats. Not willing to ship or split up. Asking $600 for the set of four. They are currently in bags from the tire shop, but I included...

I usually use Tint Shop Plus in Kannapolis for my window tinting, but they can't do the rear window. Any recent recommendations for a good shop? Preferably one that can do the Model 3 rear window in one piece? Thanks!

Sold. Thank you.

Like the title says, these are basically new take-offs. Switched to run flats. Not willing to ship or split up. Asking $600 for the set of four.

Right, there is no free lunch. Is the low vehicle tax in SC the reason the roads are so bad? Just kidding! :cool:

Every car in NC has a 3% Highway Use Tax with no cap and at least where I live another ~1% annually in property tax. And we have yearly inspections. There is an EV fee on top of that. How does that compare to your state? I know in NJ for example, there is no sales tax on EVs. I would rather pay...

Not only that, but EVs cost more to register in NC.

I think the '22 battery is larger and heavier.

This is pretty much what I expected. Thanks for your input! After speaking with my wife again, it seems likely we are going with the RWD model. As much as I want to go with the LR AWD (with AB), the performance difference is not worth the extra $8k+ out of the door to her. Especially since she...

I agree it is not the best metric. My Hellcat was awful from 0-60 on street tires because it couldn't get any traction. It was a beast once it was moving at a decent clip however, assuming you could manage the still present wheel spin. Getting back to the Tesla, an increase in 0-60 times...

I meant last model year, as in 2021 vs the 2022s coming out now. So new a couple of months ago. It sounds like I am just going to have to drive them.

No, there was a brief period last year for SR+ with an LFP battery and that is what I have driven. I believe the battery was smaller than the current LFP battery so it had less range and the same acceleration as the NCA battery, See below. So my question was phrased correctly, but if it needs to...
