    Model S 19 inch Non-Tempest Wheel Covers

    You can buy them separately off eBay or you can buy the covers and caps together from Tesplus. Only site outside of eBay I’ve seen offer these. I imagine there are others though. Tesplus is more expensive but a quick google search turns up a few discount codes, assuming they work...

    Model S 19 inch Non-Tempest Wheel Covers

    Spot on. Not ready to shell out on aftermarket wheels and dispose of/sell these tires with plenty of life if I go for 20 inch wheels. Inexpensive alternative. Efficiency hasn’t taken a hit based on the data I’m seeing in Tessie too. Are they perfect? No but what wheel covers are I suppose. Are...

    2021 Long Range Actual Range After Charging

    Yep, you got me. I misinterpreted the question, missed that last piece.

    2021 Long Range Actual Range After Charging

    What’s your average wh/mi stated under Trips? And are you doing mainly freeway miles? Lots of factors but a good call out from @teko, winter temps sting.

    Model S 19 inch Non-Tempest Wheel Covers

    Haven’t seen or read much about these MS wheel covers in the wild or on the interwebs for that matter. Thought I’d share in case anyone is interested. I’m still debating whether to keep them on but they’re not bad. They’re a little shiny for being matte. I know that’s a bit of an oxymoron, but...

    Sound Deadening DIY Tips and Tricks

    To my fellow Model S tinkerers - I used the Decibel X app on my phone to get a reading on local roads, recorded 68-70 db on our 2023 MS Refresh. Our Lexus SUV recorded 58-62 db on the same roads. On a well-paved freeway though, it drops down to 65 for the MS at least but seems like there’s some...

    2023 Model S Road Noise?

    Appreciate the take and that’s why we love our other car as well. I think, like anything in life, it just comes down to what we individually value. There’s a lot to love and a lot to despise about the MS, but for what I appreciate and my circumstances, I’m willing to put up with a little more...

    2023 Model S Road Noise?

    Bringing it back to road noise, I used the Decibel X app on my phone to get a reading on local roads, recorded 68-70 db on our 2023 MS. Our Lexus SUV recorded 58-62 db on the same roads. On a well-paved freeway though, it drops down to 65 for the MS at least but seems like there’s some room for...

    Macboost Installation Reco in Seattle Area?

    There are several threads that share people’s experience. In some instances, with regard to the Michelins, they got them replaced under warranty, others got partial credit, or some received nothing at all. These Macsboost shims offer some peace of mind, at least for me. They they are relatively...

    Macboost Installation Reco in Seattle Area?

    I did. Sound Wheel Works & Alignment in Bellevue. 14320 NE 21st St #6, Bellevue, WA 98007 Tread on my Michelins 4K in so far look great.

    2023.7.30 and Loss of Autowipers

    I’m also in Seattle and learned this recently as well on my new MS. Odd to say as a Seattle-ite but hoping for a rainy day soon to try the FSD workaround… or another way to look at it… the $200/month subscription for automatic wipers. Haha. Just have to laugh at this stuff sometimes.

    Michelin Pilot Sport EV tires on Model S

    Looking to get a set of tires for my 21-inch Arachnids. Is anyone running the Michelin Pilot Sport EVs on these or otherwise? Thanks!

    Macboost Installation Reco in Seattle Area?

    Is anyone aware of a reputable shop in the Seattle-Bellevue area that can help me install the Macboost Camber Kit on my Tesla Model S Refresh? Admittedly, I am not mechanically savvy, yet, and this doesn't feel like the right thing to give it the ol' college try on. Thank you, Mahesh

    Square 20" wheel setup for refresh Model S - what do I need to know?

    Great to know and agreed. We’re eternal realists as Tesla owners. :)

    Square 20" wheel setup for refresh Model S - what do I need to know?

    These look fantastic. For 20 inch wheels, what setting do you select in the UI under “wheels and tires” since only the 19 inch tempest and 21 inch arachnids are shown as options? Thanks!

    Wheel Settings for 20 inch rims/tires.

    Hello friends! I am considering a set of 20 inch Martian MW05s or Vossen HF-7s for my Model S LR Refresh. For those who have 20 inch wheels, what setting do you select under “wheels and tires” in the menu since only the Tempest and Arachnid options are shown? It says the appropriate setting...
