    Michelin CrossClimate+

    Costco Korea sells these. I thought about them but went with a real winter tire in Blizzaks. Just cheaper that way and reduces wear and tear on my original Primacys.

    Winter Tires on Model 3

    We have even less choices in South Korea. Winter tires are kind of a novelty for people who value safety or value their expensive imported cars. Some people still use summer tires in winter! For the M3, choices were the older Michelin Xice Xi3, expensive Pirellis or the domestic manufacturers...

    Winter Tires on Model 3

    Installed Blizzak LM001 225/45/18s in Seoul, South Korea. Only a little noisier than the stock Primacy tires on the highway and not noticable on the normal roads. About a 5% range drop probably because they're not ecogreen or low resistance tires like the stock Michelins. Well worth the range...

    Or get a Korean to help you buy them? Parking at Suwon can be free if you eat or shop at the outlets.

    South Korea

    Suwon can be free parking if you eat or shop there at the outlets. You could try ordering them from Tesla Europe. Same plate size. Or get a Korean to help you buy them from the shop here?

    Destination chargers no more

    Seems like Tesla needs to update their chargers on the Navi because Shinsegae department stores ended their contract to be destination chargers. Daegu was first to go and none at the Shinsegae Myeongdong store.

    Roadtripping in the Era of COVID-19

    We're fortunate here in South Korea that a lot of the Superchargers are in malls, hotels or office buildings. Everybody wears masks and hand sanitizer is readily available. The 2 rural ones you could probably do it off to the side for men. The fairer sex would have to wait.

    Wonju, South Korea. 6 superchargers outside in the Oak Valley resort complex. Wasn't very busy at all on Sunday. A nice drive outside of Seoul during this gorgeous Fall weather.

    The destination chargers in Daegu Shinsegae are gone after 9/16. The sign said the contract finished. Best to charge at EXCO if you're in Area IV.

    It's too bad you can't get the government subsidies as well. Even with VAT exempted, the M3 is too much and I wouldn't have gotten one at that price point.

    Visited the Seoul Apgujeung supercharger at the Hyatt Andaz hotel. Was pretty busy around 7pm with people eating dinner (while charging) to avoid parking charges. After 8pm then all stalls freed up.

    Gapyeong, South Korea This is probably the worst Supercharger in Korea. In the middle of nowhere and they charge a 1000 won for parking (per 30 mins). Most rural Superchargers are free for now and don't charge for parking.

    This. I've had many buddies have to sell their RHD Skylines and Lancer Evolutions because of a PCS back to the States. Both active duty and contractors. Not immune from federal motor vehicle law.

    They're the same cars made in the same California factory. Just Korean airbag, car info stickers in the frunk and different modem. I don't think they're going to allow you to bring it back cuz of the 25 year rule. Once a car, even an American made car leaves, can't come back until 25 years...

    Dangjin definitely has less traffic and Superchargers less crowded than Suwon. Just sometimes washed car owners park it in our charging spaces. Yeah, I wanted to edit Osan after reading it over but couldn't. Tesla needs more in places outside of Seoul, period. They also need more than 4 per...

    Sangju, South Korea. Probably the most rural and scary one I'll ever visit in Korea. Had spider webs on the chargers and in the middle of nowhere.

    Any rental car service in Japan provide Tesla?

    Use any AnyCa. The traditional rental cars companies are just your normal fleet model Japanese cars.

    I need more posts to post pictures but Dangjin was in the middle of a car wash. I wouldn't go there from Seoul just to charge but it's good for those in the Humphreys and Osan area. Just across the Seohae bridge. Best place to charge if driving to the beaches at Mallinpo and Anmyeondo.

    South Korea

    I think those eligible for the subsidies would be Koreans, permanent residents and then marriage spouses. You definitely need the ARC card and maybe show your business employment contract.

    There's not a lot of range anxiety when in the Seoul area. I think I would feel it driving to Busan with our standard range one and would definitely have to make a charging stop in Sangju, either going or coming back.

    FYI: Tesla doesn’t ship to APO

    You could also use Mailtail or Box Oregon and ship to an offpost address.
