September 2021, to be clear. The earliest window date I saw was at one point only a week after my order. And no, there have been no order or account changes. I won't be mad about it showing up after Jan 1 though on the off chance tax credits return. I'm skeptical, but I wouldn't turn it down.

My order got pushed this morning to simply "February." Was previously Jan 7 - Feb 7 after bouncing from as soon as late September all the way to March IIRC. Red/White/No Tow/No FSD MYP ordered 9/23 for delivery in NJ.

Mine (2020 3P) has been doing this almost daily since 2021.36. It happens after the car has been sitting, and is cleared with a reboot. It's extremely annoying but I'm glad to hear I'm not alone. Hopefully this is fixed quickly.

Let's try this again now that my Martians finally arrived. Also adding a Jeda USB hub (dual USB-A) for pre June 2020 builds. $40 you provide a shipping label. Alternatively, free with purchase of wheels.

This is absolutely true. I have generally been lazy and figured if they ever bothered me I'd just replace them. But they do not like impacts. To be fair to McGard, they are quite clear about this. But they are not kidding.

Spline drive lug nuts are your friend when it comes to not marring up your new wheels. McGard Spline Drive Lug Nuts 65310BK That's the part I used. The base (silver part) is a separate piece that stops turning once it makes contact with the wheel. That combined with spline drive makes them...

The issue as explained to me is related to this: You need a lot of volume of air to seat the bead, and if it's all escaping through the knurling faster than you can put it in then you won't succeed.

Logic seems reasonable; I ordered a set of Rally Armor. I've had narrow/tucked winter wheels on to date due to these delays so now is as good a time as any to get flaps on. Also good to hear the Y is improved as I just convinced my in-laws to buy one and they were never going to go for PPF...

Not sure what's up with the pictures, they show for me when logged in but don't when not. Here's all of them + a new one. Any suggestions on mud flaps that aren't garbage? I'm happy to pay for quality but when I looked back in December there was nothing worthwhile on the market that I...

Car is fully PPF'd, does that change your view? I had pretty much decided that mud flaps were a net negative due to potential to wear through PPF to harm the paint. I'm not opposed to mud flaps if they can be done without adding risk.

It's one of Martian Wheels' stock sizes - 19x9.5 +30. I somehow managed to get tar all over the car and my wrap guy has been somewhat less than responsive in getting me in to fix it. So as I said - Filthy car. But I went back outside and took these just for you.

Leaking ended up being an installer issue, apparently a barcode tag stuck in the bead seal area on two tires. All seems well now. Apologies for the filthy car but at least the wheel is somewhat clean: A/S 3+ in 265/35/19 has a lot of wheel protection. Curbing should be nearly impossible...

Certainly possible. They didn't seem all that put out by the knurling, aside from it giving them trouble until they took them to the other shop. They've been fine for me on my other cars and did mount/balance on at least one Viper tire and my Focus RS along with less entertaining daily driver...

More fun. Had four new Michelin A/S 3+ mounted. The tire shop had significant difficulty getting them to seal on the knurling using air pressure alone and needed to send them out to a sister shop that had another tool. Once they declared them finished the wheels stayed in my truck for a few days...

Correct. I had placed a second order for the sensors; apparently they should have been installed and torqued to spec prior to shipping. When I opened the one box to get a photo I figured the sensors were just in one of the other boxes and didn't investigate further.

Encountered an issue when I dropped wheels off for mount and balance - We checked the boxes and discovered that there were no TPMS sensors anywhere to be found. I retreated to my truck and called Drew, he immediately offered me two options: 1) Next day shipped set of sensors straight to the...

Mine have landed:

I miss the *sugar* out of my Viper when the weather turns nice. I don't regret selling it, but I do miss it. But - These worlds do not have to be at odds. I will never buy another ICE car as a daily driver. I will, however, own more ICE sports cars. Hopefully ones that have some electrification...

19x9.5 in this color:

I have tracking numbers overnight. Looks like we may be near the end.

I don't think there's any intentional deception here, he's probably just as annoyed if not worse than we are. When your entire business model depends upon a supply chain you can neither see nor influence in time like this you are basically SOL and don't have the luxury of doing a chargeback from...

I ordered a custom color February 11th. I believe I can see the limits of my patience from here. I paid via Amex, my understanding is they don't have a limit on chargeback time but I really don't want to go that route. Last couple times I have called went to voicemail, the first time he...

I have a brand new in box set of these: Tesla Wheels - Ohm Proton Rotary Forged Rims Gloss black, never mounted or test fit. Boxes have never even been opened. These are a direct fit wheel, no hub rings or spacers required. M3P+ compatible. I have decided to go in a different direction for...

This is the case basically everywhere. If it were not, everyone would buy cars in states with no sales tax.

Sorry folks these are sold. I'm sure there will be more as the less adventurous among us take delivery of these cars in areas with roads that are not forgiving to such low profile tires.

The other thing to keep in mind: Unlike summer tires in winter, winter tires in summer don't degrade to something dangerous. While it won't be the best for their longevity, and you would definitely be sacrificing some max grip you can perfectly safely make that trip solely on winter tires. I...

Still available, and still the cheapest set around.

What do you mean changed? Gray is the stock color for 2020 performance wheels. They are completely unmodified. There may be color differences between the first photo (at delivery) and the photos I took of them off the car but that's due to lighting differences - Cloudy rainy day the day of...

They will fit any Model 3 to my knowledge.

Wheels are off the car as planned, no road miles. Available for pickup and or meetup immediately. I am willing to meet a reasonable distance from Boonton, NJ to reduce your drive time.

This kind of behavior should not be tolerated here. Rant about the quality issyes, yell at Elon on Twitter, whatever but trying to destroy the livelihood of someone who is more than a few economic classes below you is entitled, narcissistic, and frankly evil. Be better than this. And no, your...

Ultimately the price of the car and the rate didn't change its just how I'm paying for it. I had no plans to burn $5k when I showed up and it's extremely obnoxious to have that sprung on you. Walking would have cost me the tax credit, and because I was going to be on a plane less than 24 hours...

When we showed up to pick up ours we discovered that the numbers that had been showing on the website were no longer there and instead they were expecting $5000 cash at delivery. As recently as the day before Tesla employees had told us over the phone when they called to confirm our appointment...

Just took delivery of this two days ago at the Springfield NJ SC: Car has not yet been driven on public roads, since the weather on Tuesday was terrible it went straight into a closed transport to get wrapped. I have winter wheels ready to go on so these wheels/tires currently have only...
