Model 3 wheels with 255/55r18s Americas Tires would not mount them to the car, they kept saying it was going to rub. All the tech and the manager focused on was how much the tire was wider than the rim. The don’t teach them about offset I’m guessing.

Not aftermarket wheels, just wheels from a different model. Newer Model 3 18x8.5 with 255/55r18s Falken Wildpeak AT trail tires. I raised the car 20mm when I installed ball bearing thrust washers to the Ohlins coil over kit. I could have kept it stock height but I like the look and little...

I never did look up the weight of the donor vehicle but I’m pretty confident they will have a good service life.

I did do the electric tape mod when I 1st installed the kit, perhaps I did not use enough?

I know an old thread I was getting tites if the springs making noises in my Redwood Motorsports Ohlins. I added OEM strut thrust washers to the front and rear of my MY this past weekend. Car is quieter and better riding than ever before. I am now asking myself if I am going to keep my 20s...

Pics of rear spring mods

Hopefully okay to post this here. I installed the Redwood Motorsports Ohlins front and rear kit last year or so. Generally happy with it except the occasional noise. When I did the install they did not recommend using anything between the spring and the adjustable aluminum perch. The spring...

This thread is for the general discussion of the marketplace listing Want to buy: MY front strut mount. Please add to the discussion here.

Handling at higher speeds on the freeway seem about the same. I have yet to go for a blast out on the windy country roads near me with these new tires. Had I opted for non-run flat tires I’m sure the ride would be even better. I may change from 42psi to 38psi and see if that helps.

I just had 255/45-20’s yesterday on my ‘21 MY. Tires are Pirelli Scorpion Verde run flats. So far I like them and while it could be a placebo effect I think the ride is better. Mounted on the factory option 20 inch wheels.

GT versions.

Front and rear kits have been installed and so far I really like them. One thing to note is that in the M3 instructions they mention using a rubber pad between the bottom of the spring and the adjustable perch. The kit I have did not have those and upon talking to Redwood Motorsports they no...

I found the instructions online, not 100% one for one to the parts I have. Making an educated guess and hope I am correct.

It appears they do have instructions online. Not showing these parts however.

Finally got one front factory shock off the car. Now about to install new beautiful parts. As my luck no instructions and when I called and texted yesterday no response. I’m fairly sure this is how the washers and insulators go. Edit….once I put the boot on it changes things. Now I have...

This is what was left of my front lip while traveling from the East Bay Area to Las Vegas a week ago. I stopped at the chargers in Yermo, CA when I noticed parts of it missing. Pretty sure I didn't hit anything. The quick jaunt to xxx might have something to do with it. I sent a picture to the...

Grand Touring. Not sure if I am going to leave the car at stock height or make some 1" spacers to raise it up a tad bit.

My MY has rebooted twice now. Luckily both times I pulled over before it turned into a brick. (no lights, no movement, nothing worked) Nothing worked on the car, it was a dead as a paperweight , scared the daylights out of my kids. Both times it happened right after putting it in reverse and...

I ordered the Öhlins from Redwood Motorsports March 28th, I called them a few days ago and it looks like we'll be waiting another 3 to 4 weeks. While I'd like to have them sooner it gives me a chance to get the suspension back on my Volvo 242 so that I can get that car off my QuickJack lift...

Eggggg Only vehicle I have ever named.

Alright, received an email yesterday saying my MY will be delivered to our home tomorrow (03/28/2021) I wish I would have ordered my 14-50 adapter cable a few weeks ago instead of a few days ago, I'll have to stick with the 5-15 outlet and Supercharging at my local Target.

I placed an order this morning for the 14-50 cable adapter, no mention of it being back ordered on the invoice.

Long Range, Pearl White Paint, 20’’ Wheels, Black and White Premium Interior, Seven Seat

Received our VIN today for our 7 seater, better get my wiring finished up in the garage for the charger!

Received my VIN for our new 7 seater today. Placed order on 2/21/21, so a few days over a full month.

Another 7-seat order added to list to be manufactured placed on Sunday (2/21/21) I test drove a Model Y on Monday from the Walnut Creek store, it had the heated steering wheel and new center console which I like better than the previous version. Snapshot of our specs: Long Range All-Wheel...
