    Please help!!! [should I return my car?]

    Hope you got a smoking good deal on it. Vroom offered me over $5,000 less than bids from local wholesalers in my area to buy my 2019 SR+ with only 8k miles on it. Vroom offered me $32,500 for it. Crazy.

    Fix the Fold [auto folding mirrors]

    They’re supposed to fold at the location. We have three single wide garage doors so mine fold as I’m pulling into the driveway and I have added clearance pulling into the garage. Perfect.

    Hey SR owners! What Subwoofer did you install in the factory location?

    I bought the OEM sub off eBay, an Alpine and Fosgate amp and the wiring harness that Todd2fst4u sells here on the forum. Just got his harness today and it looks great, everything labelled. Pretty sure he uses the Hannshow harness but rewires it. Comes with the plugs for the amps he...

    FS :: BC Forged 19″ RZ05 wheels for Tesla Model 3 :: Cleveland, Ohio

    Any idea on the weight? Are you a dealer? BC has this same wheel and same photos on their "in stock" section for sale right now at $3350. Are the wheels shipping from them or from you?

    *2021* Model 3 Performance Uberturbine Wheel Questions (esp for winter wheel and tire swap)

    Anyone know what these boat anchors weigh? I love the design but am afraid of the weight for my SR+.

    Surprising wiper voice commands

    Manual intermittent only. The "auto" isn't worth it. Doesn't wipe when you want it to, then next thing you know its on high speed. Mist rain seems to confuse it the most. Every now and then I'll try auto again, then within about 3 minutes think why did I do that?

    Only Tesla can do the alignment??

    While it may seem like a spaceship it really is just a car. Especially where the suspension is concerned. Any alignment shop can do it.

    MPP Comfort Coilover making ping sound when turning wheel

    Mine were silent the first few months or so and then started pinging, usually in the morning as I back out of my driveway. Had already read about it so wasn’t freaked and it doesn’t really bother me. I just say in my head “because race car”. Even if it isn’t.

    Looking to sell my OEM Gemini (19") wheels. Full set.

    Photos would probably help immensely.

    Downsized M3 Performance to 18 inch wheels

    Seem like for the track (and aesthetics) a 18x9.5 would’ve been better. With a 265/40-18 tire overall diameter would’ve stayed the same.

    21’’ Überturbine Wheels off new Model Y - Phoenix, AZ

    They will fit but the 21” requires an extremely low profile tire. Like 25 series.

    God I want a set of these to squeeze on my model 3! Too bad they weigh a ton and are 21".

    Time to settle things - lowering springs and bump stops

    They are coil springs for gods sake. Your shocks and struts will blow out before anything ever happens to the springs. You guys are way overthinking this.

    Eibach + accel boost vs. MPP comforts

    I installed Eibach springs on mine and three weeks later installed MPP Comfort coilovers. YMMV. Car rides so much better now.

    List of all Lowering Springs for Standard Range

    Strange thing is Eibach lists a different drop for the rear on the two kits. Both kits use exactly the same rear springs.

    H&R Lowering Springs

    Always ran H&R on my BMW’s. Quality stuff.

    Finally!! Eibach has a SR+ lowering spring.

    E10-87-001-04-22 E10-87-001-04-22 I was told is the current part number for the SR cars that gives more drop. The earlier number is what I'd first ordered and they were designed for the MR/LR rear drive cars. Only dropped the front of my car 1/2". The "04" part number uses the same rear...

    Finally!! Eibach has a SR+ lowering spring.

    They're made by KW to Mountain Pass Performance's specs. The ride is superb, even lowered. They feel much more controlled and better damped than the stock set up. The shocks/struts feel perfectly matched to the springs on the MPP setup.

    Finally!! Eibach has a SR+ lowering spring.

    If they’re the newer SR specific spring it’s more aggressive in the front. Mine came down almost 1.5” front.

    Tesla Model 3: 4 20" EV Wheel Direct Roadster Style Wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S Tires, TPMS

    Shouldn’t cost anywhere near $400-$500 to ship these. Most wheel/tire sets I’ve shipped in the past ran around $200 to ship. Cut out cardboard the size of the wheels. Strap two wheels together with the cardboard on the ends. Ship as two packages under one tracking number. FedEx ground or UPS ground.

    Lowering the Model 3

    That’s what I do now but those cute little ramps are sweet! I can get my Arcan low profile jack under the car with a thin pad but now that it’s lowered my safejack stands won’t fit without getting the car up a bit first.

    Worth installing OEM rear sway bar on my SR+?

    It looks like the Eibach kit comes with their own brackets for the rear. However, I'd need the rear endlinks which look to be a bit pricey even used on ebay. I'd also need the OEM hardware which who knows how hard that is to track down. I somehow lost one of the nuts off a front swaybar link...

    T-Sportline RWD 1 inch drop springs okay for SR+?

    I have a set of Eibach springs in the classifieds for an SR+. 1.4 front drop 1.1 rear. If you install LR springs you will get less drop. They probably are selling the same springs. That’s why LR drops 1” and SR drops .75”.

    Not on the rear. Seems like a crazy place to save $100.

    Eibach Releases Performance Pack Lowering Springs

    Mine didn’t settle. Sort of an urban myth. Put the car on the ground and drive 5 miles or so. Pretty much get what ya got.

    Worth installing OEM rear sway bar on my SR+?

    Since the SR models don’t have a rear sway bar I was wondering if it would be worth it to buy a used one and install it or should I go straight to Eibach sways at 3X the price? Has anyone installed a sway bar on the rear of their SR? Do I just need the end links? Are all the mounting points...

    Eibach Releases Performance Pack Lowering Springs

    Those are about the same measurements my SR+ had. Definitely the exact same in front. Don’t remember on the rear. However my rear passenger side was also higher. Even after Installing Eibach springs and now with my MPP comfort coil overs. Still sits .25” higher on drivers side rear. At least now...

    Registration in Wa now more than insurance?

    this is also very inaccurate information. Most modern cars have a curb weight of 3600-4000 pounds. Same as our Tesla’s. Some drivers eat up tires likely due to the high torque our motors put out.

    Eibach lowering springs for SR or LR (rear drive) your choice! $225 shipped

    The ride quality is decent. Not as good as the coil overs I installed but also much cheaper. The long range front coils did ride a lot nicer than the SR springs which are lower in the front. there are a number of how to installs available online. It isn’t super difficult if you have some...

    Like new Eibach lowering springs for sale, only on my car 30 days! I purchased these last Black Friday sale and at that time Eibach only sold one kit for the rear drive cars. I finally had the time about a month ago to install the springs. In that time Eibach had released a new kit for the...

    Finally got my KW V3 installed

    Far from just ride height. The MPP/KW coilovers also have dampers that are tuned for the springs and the lower ride height. Who care about compression and rebound adjustment unless your car is for the track. Daily drivers probably find one setting and leave it there. I’m installing mine...

    MPP Comfort Coilover reviews?

    I am wrong. Never mind. Went out and looked at mine again and that is the way they go on. Had the angles wrong in my head. Plus, I figured when installed the KW/MPP serial number nameplate would face out not to the inside.
