I bought actual black lugnuts, but yeah, the covers are pretty cool.

Tesla OEM 👍

I found a set of the Tesla branded Track Pack 20 inch wheels and like them better than the Arachnids I ordered my MSP with.

I'm in the same boat. Tesla definitely didn't paint these with any kind of real care. Thinking bad prep possibly. I'm sure they'd tell me they kept the paint nano-thin to decrease weight for maximum performance lol.

Actually, YES. I just did it this weekend. I used the instruction video from RPM Tesla for their USB-C phone charger mount. Here is that video: Then I used this USB adapter (with a USB-C-to-A-adapter) to power my Escort MAX360...

You ROCK! Been looking on Amazon for something just like that! I'm done trying the mirrortap route. I have a USB-RJ-11 style cable for the Escort and I'll run it through the center console and go this route.

Unfortunately, I bought the short mirrortap cable, so it JUST makes it to the detector with the mirror mount I have the MAX360. I purchased an inline power kit with plenty of length and will most likely run it up the A Pillar and into the headliner, then mount it with a suction mount on the...

They absolutely do look similar, but I got these for less than the TSportlines and they're true Tesla branded wheels. I'll take the small victory lol

I've been in the car stereo arena since the 90's and the return policy seems fine to me. Once you mount and drive a speaker, they have to take the hit and try to sell it "open box demo" style, and with how niche of a product it is, I won't fault them. I agree it's pricey, but it's also 100% plug...

I've been eyeing this kit up, but I believe the Gen 3 setup is for 2021+ up refreshes. https://www.lightharmonic.com/product-page/tesla-model-s-speakers-gen-3-tas-amp-subwoofer-four-door-speakers

UPDATE: I noticed that after I installed my Escort Max360 by tapping these wires, that my map would freeze up and just show my car where it last had signal. I tried rebooting the car a couple of times, and then I thought to myself that maybe the GPS in the detector was messing with the car's...

That's all I can think of. I was cruising around the web for a few hours looking at TSportline and other Tesla wheel companies when I hopped on eBay for giggles and came across them. I love how much more aggressive they look than my Arachnids, so I hit but it now.

I mean I'm still pumped to slap these on the Plaid, but they are definitely not forged. I'll be weighing these up once I get my tires mounted and see how they compare to the 21" Arachnids I have now. Even if they're 1 pound lighter, I'll consider it a win, since I like how these look better than...

Ummmm, maybe not. I just bought a set: These are for my 2023 MSP though. Maybe the Model 3's were forged, and the S isn't? Seems odd they'd go that route. Oh well. Hope they don't shear off on me.

I came across a killer deal on the 20" Track Pack Wheels and jumped on them for my 2023 MSP. The only kicker is that they don't come with center caps. Can anyone confirm that standard caps like the ones TSportline sells here: T Sportline Wheel Center Caps will work? It says works with all Tesla...

What's your suspension setup? Those lines are clean!

Update! I got my Escort Max 360 installed with one minor hiccup. The good news is that the BLACK/GREEN connector is the proper source to tap (Green +, Black -). The snag I hit was that I bought the 10" MirrorTap instead of the 15", and with my detector and the location of the tap, I had to take...

I'll be going at it again this coming weekend. I was sick on the day I planned to attack the Black/Green harness. Fingers crossed!

Can you elucidate a bit on what you did to get the best out of it at the track? I'm thinking about taking my Plaid out soon and am eating enough crow already for selling my Redeye Hellcat to get this thing. I need to represent with something in the 9's for sure.

Update: Reached out to the Video author and he states after the most recent software update, the GREEN/BLACK pair he used to tap his radar detector into is only hot with the vehicle in DRIVE, bit just with the car ON. I'll be heading back out this weekend to try it again and see if I get the...

So my first project with my MSP was to get my Escort Max 360 wired up. I've done this 3 tiems on other vehicles with no issues. I assumed finding a 16V source would be easy.... it wasn't. I used this video as my guide: Upon pulling the mirror mount off, I was happily surprised to see the...

Which FL license plate is that? Looks Black with white letters, and if it is, I need it. Car looks GREAT!

Black/Black with round wheel and 21" Arachnids. Exact same buildout I spec'd back in 21, but they kept pushing my delivery date. Did it again last week and had a VIN in 10 minutes, and a pickup 6 days later. Still in shock I got it so quick.

Well THAT makes me happy. Just got my MSP yesterday. My house is 16 cents/Kw and for giggles, I topped off at a Supercharger at the local grocery mart for 37 cents/Kw today. Us "Florida Mans" seem to have some good rates, but I'm also considering moving out to Oregon, so I like what I'm reading...

Just picked my MSP up in Jacksonville yesterday morning. I had the checklist printed out, and after walking around the car and opening all the doors, I reverted to a 3 year old and got so excited I just handed him the check and drove off :p. I made it 2 miles before I pulled over, called a tint...

LOL I need to stop checking this thread.. I'm picking up my MSP in Jacksonville on Monday morning and I literally had a dream last night that I picked up my car, and as I'm driving, I realize it has the yoke.. and it's been modded with a top cross bar and some racing sticker on it. "Wait, that...

I get that, but we're talking about 15 grand off the mark. Last time I traded in my first Hellcat, the dealer actually gave me exactly what I was going to sell it privately for. Maybe I was lucky.

Did they offer you enough for that Hellcat Durango to make it worth your while? I got their offer on my Charger Widebody Redeye Hellcat and it's WAY off what I see them selling for.

LOL, luckily the drive home from picking it up is 94.9 miles, so I guess I'll have to use that trip as my one chance :D

I was still under the impression the Plaids were 130 new or so. I looked for used online and saw them in the 80's ot low 90's. Then I went online for giggles and loaded one up at the Tesla site and realized new is the way to go. Mine was 96 + tax with my options, and I did find one asking 88...

It's stories like this that have me paranoid. I ordered my MSP literally 3 hours ago and already have a pickup appointment for Monday in Jacksonville. It's almost TOO quick for my liking. Guess I'll pull outt he old lucky socks and rabbit foot for the trip next week. I'm bringing my friend who's...

Figured I'd throw my hat in the ring on this thread. After pre-ordering a MSP back in 2021 and then letting Tesla push my delivery date out a month, and then another month, and then another 2 months, to the point I got pissed, cancelled it, and bought a Charger Redeye Widebody Hellcat, things...

I've been in IT for way too long in my life, and I'm in charge of hardware refresh cycles for my company. My brain is wired to do my best to prevent EOL situations (like Windows 11 only running on X Gen Intel platforms and above, and Apple IOS upgrades only being available for n number of...

That's what has me looking for a Plaid now. I plan on having it for a while so my only "want" is HW4 hardware, which is becoming its own rabbit hole for me already. I believe as long as I get a "2023" model Plaid, it will have it. Trying to get it for around 90K, and that actually seems doable...

Well, it was a fun ride, but I just canceled my MSLR order. I just can't sit around hoping I might get my car by June or July. Found a killer deal on a 2021 Widebody Charger Hellcat Redeye, so I'll deal with my 797HP and complete lack of traction until Tesla learns how to deliver on time. I'm...

OOF, that's truly the definition of getting "pounded" on the price :oops:😆

Drew, that makes me feel A LOT Better. I've had an 800WHP Lightning, built E55AMG, worked CTS-V, and now the Hellcat. I love speed, and really love torque, hence every ride has been a blown engine. You're getting me giggly over here!

I ordered my MS LR a couple of weeks ago and I've never even sat inside a Tesla 😄 I saw the look, saw the specs, saw the tech. I'm rolling the dice but I'm excited, not nervous.

Totally agree. I've always had pretty aggressive looking sports cars, and the S never struck me as having the looks. But once I saw the refresh and the performance specs, I had to jump the shark and order one. I'm thinking all black with tinted windows, and the 21's I paid up for might just have...

Definitely get a set of T-15-T55 bits and then save yourself the murderous rage and aneurysm inducing feeling when one of them DOES start to strip or rust in place and get an impact hammer. This thing saved me after a 2 days wrestling match with a steering wheel replacement, and then when it...

I'm in the same predicament. I'll be financing my LR and I know I'm good for the Bank Draft, but they expire after 60 days, and as we're all seeing, I don't think I'm going to have my Tesla before then. I don't want any more hard credit pulls because I've been on a mission to obtain an 850...

This is my first foray into the Tesla world, and the refresh is what made me pull the trigger on it vs. buying a used Performance Model. My order says Yoke, so you bet your battery loving butts I expect a yoke when it finally shows up....which hopefully occurs before the Zombie Apocalypse of 2025.

I saw the Pilot Sport 4S's on there and frankly that was what made it *slightly* easier to swallow the 4500.00 upcharge for the 21's. I ran them on my previous 2 cars and IMO they're the best all around "I like to get on it but I also like to get more than 5,000 miles out of them" tire on the...

Got my order in for a Black/Black LR with 21 inch wheels. Now comes the wait. THANK YOU for the input gang. Now to get the Hellcat ready for sale. Looking forward to the new ride!

I've spent WAY too long trying to build out high horsepower vehicles and now I'm at a point where I just want something cool, comfortable, and can at least hold it's own coming off a red light. The best I've ever gotten 0-60 in the Hellcat is 3.9 and I went and bought 11" wide rears to shove...

That's an interesting take. All the 2020 Performance models I've found are 90-99K, so my brain is fighting me on paying more for that car when I could get a 0 mile, completely refreshed interior (and I assume newer hardware) LR for less, and still have a decent shot at surprising people off the...

Thanks for all of the replies everyone. This brings up a great point too. I've watched all the Ludicrous+ launch videos and to me, and it's in the same vein as me wanting to race someone in my Hellcat and telling them "hold on, I need to put my slicks on real quick" (since the Hellcat can't hook...

I can't seem to wrap my head around what to do here, so I'm looking for advice. I originally started looking at used P100D's, which then turned into looking at used Model S Performances. I WAS looking at a 2019 or 2020 Model S Performance, because my requirements for a new ride are "it needs to...
