I suggest to stick to short posts to avoid headaches and disappointment.

Thanks for your contribution!

Yes, my friend who owns a Model X recently had a similar incident in an urban area. Tesla dispatched a mobile service that swapped the wheel while the damaged one was sent to a Tesla Service Center for repair. The only cost was the actual repair.

The fact that it's a Hummer and that there were plenty of spots around makes me think it was not an accident. Maybe I should start blocking gas stations with my Tesla and see what kind of reaction I get.

If it's going to take me eight hours to get a to a ski resort, I prefer there is snow, affordable lift tickets, and no line at the lift. You should try it, you're even closer than I am!

Apparently the 235/45 R18 tire size is very uncommon and could not be sourced anywhere around where I was.

The area was snow-covered so curbs didn't stand out visually or to sensors. It was my fault but I thought Tesla would be able to swap that wheel for me.

Every ICE car I've owned prior to my Tesla had a spare.

My family went on a ski trip this week to Utah. This trip had been planned for months and I seriously considered renting an ICE car for it. Then I reconsidered. After all, Tesla's supercharging network means that I can take long road trips. I studied the superchargers map on Tesla's website and...
