I'll save you a bunch of time - the answer is NO

Paint is holding WELL. Front bumper is flawless still...I'm honestly a bit surprised. I thought Tesla paint is not the greatest but here I am with no PPF and perfect front after thousands of miles.

I should add that I'm at 5100 ft elevation though I didn't think TPMS readings should be affected by that...

2021 Model 3P. In 2021, they switched to the new bluetooth TPMS sensors. I'm noticing the car is reading tire pressures low. On my uberturbines it would show 40psi when the tire pressure was 42. On my brand new set of wheels (with new Tesla TPMS sensors) it reads 40 when the tire pressure is...

Well good news is 4680 is on the horizon for 2022 mass volume. First in the model Y but if we're lucky maybe the model 3 Performance gets it by end of next year along with new motors to take it to the next level. Either late 2022 or 2023 it will. And being structural, these batteries will mean...

I would recommend the new for 2021 Continental DWS06+. They feel like a summer tire when dry (compared to my Pirelli PZeros that my M3P came with) and are quite capable in snow - same or better than Michelin PSAS4. Compared to the Michelin PS4AS they are 2% worse in dry traction but are better...

After a lot of research and 2 months digging into data including LRRs... My choices were down to these: Michelin PSAS4: Best dry traction (2% better than DWS06+), great in snow....louder and harsher than other 2 choices. Michelin CC2: Best snow traction, OK in every other category Continental...

Same. The model S is just too darn big for me. But I love the tech and speed in it. Hopefully they update the M3P in the next year or two.

I have that tire running on my performance on a 19x8.5 set of forged wheels in 240/35/R19 size. Excellent tire. Extremely comfortable too...it's about as quiet as the pirelli summer tires and very close in grip, if not more. As to your question - the diameter of the wheel+tire with 245/35/R20...

A note about the weight - the MPP rotors are only about one pound lighter than stock performance ones. It's not a huge difference so don't expect to be dropping a huge amount.

It doesn't make much sense to apply limits based on acceleration rather than amps or power. I agree there a computer limit but I'd be surprised if it accounts for weight in the car. Please post some data. Do you also get the same acceleration with 1-3 passangers? Do the lightweight wheels...

The model 3P is mighty impressive down low but above 60mph it's performance drops off a ton. Max torque occurs at 40mph. Max horsepower is at 60mph. Above that there's a steep dropoff....it's not much of a performance car at 90+. The new plaid is 50% faster in the lower speeds but gets to be...

Glad to see this fixed - now some of the most consistent performance from an EV in the cold it seems. Fantastic. It seems I can drive mine down to around 40% before it starts to slowly slow down.

I actually sent Manheart a letter and they got back to me. Here is the response. "Thank you for your interest in our Tesla Box. Unfortunately we have to inform you, that the box does not release the Power and we cannot tell you when the problem will be resolved. At the moment we cannot offer...

According to reviews and Michelin specs, the CC2+ has a 10% improvement in LRR over the CC2. No it won't be close to the MXM4...but it's closer-er
