Interesting. I have a '21 Plaid with 19's and tires (Bridgestone Potenza sport) with around 4k miles on them. It's in the shop and I got a loaner Plaid with 21" wheels. This car hooks WAY better than mine. My car is definitely reducing power to avoid slip. Night and day. Any 19" Plaid people...

That's great news. Yeah, I also don't rub against getting in and out of the car. I think my "repetitive stress" spot is my preferred maneuver when having to crank the yoke in U turns and 3 point turns. (No rubbing or cranking yokes please) 🤣

All done! New yoke (and got to keep the old one - xbox mod?). I don't think the craftsmanship issue has been fixed yet so pretty sure I'll reply to this post with an update within 14 months.

Quick follow-up, I replied to the scheduler mentioning that I would cancel the appt, not pay the money, and that this is warranty repair that I would investigate with CA Lemon law. I got a reply mentioning that they provide the estimate as a worst case scenario in case negligence is determined...

Welp, my 14 month plaid yoke is peeling. I'm in CA and service center wants to charge $900 to fix it. Citing cosmetic repairs are not covered under warranty. What to do?

I am personally very happy you accidentally bought 4 sets. :)

Congrats and the end of your hostage situation lol. Absolutely gorgeous. Merry EoQ Christmas!

No, not at all. I think it really pops.

Sure!

And here she is capless, though not at the lowest suspension setting. Agree with Jebinc, byoButter!

@BlueBeast - I can confirm this MotherFrunker is a BLUE BEAST. I can try to do as you ask though I am not mechanically inclined at all (HOW DO I DO THIS SAFELY?), and rarely have time for stuff like this until the weekend. Greetings Switzerland!

Yes, and for SoCal, my preference.

No, mine is Plaid/CF/Blue

And I can't think of anyone better to represent the 19's. Great posts already showing the wheels with the cap off, mudflap installs, and the shiniest MSM I've seen yet. Great job!

Just got back in town and drove her for the first time just 2 hours ago. And Oh. My. Goodness! I am so blown away, happy, and exhausted!

Touchless Delivery! And I won't be home until tomorrow night. She sure is beautiful though.

Jebinc just posted several beautiful pics of his new 19" Plaid delivery over in the model S refresh thread.

Jebinc, I'm so happy you were the first 19" delivery on TMC. You are representing better than I ever could have. I love what you're doing and sharing!

Touchless Delivery! And I am away until Monday. Sure is beautiful though!

To the surprise of nobody, I'll be driving my minivan to Vegas. Not to jinx it, but confirmed delivery still says Saturday and i still have the VIN.

Danlbrau, Have you received a confirmed delivery date? Has your EDD changed?

(Looks at Model S Tracking spreadsheet for confirmed deliveries...all 21". Looks at my confirmed delivery date of this Saturday) Realizing that I may be the first confirmed TMC user delivery of the fabled 19" wheels... :eek:

I, for one, won't believe it until I see it.

I have a confirmed delivery date of this Saturday!!!

This site and great group of people have really carried me the past few months. I'm embarrassed at how many pages I've read here and how many times daily I refresh it. Sure, I've blocked a few people on the way but group therapy nonetheless, but.... I got a delivery date! Of course it is right...

Well, the Carbon Fiber trim option is another potential difference.

Gah, EDD slipped again to 8-12 to 15. I called the delivery center and they say it has not made it on to any truck. Minivan to Vegas, here I come.

I very much wish to oblige. Though EDD continues to shuffle. Now Aug 10-14. I drive to Vegas on the 12th and have been calling/texting daily for updates but nobody (but my TMC support group) hears my screams. Sure would love to take this dream on a road trip first thing, as opposed to the...

Thanks for posting this. I had no idea this was still an option. I owned the 2012 P85 (2nd owner) that was extended to 8 years. Darn near every major component was replaced in the last 4 years and the service experience and coverage was really good, though it may cover less now. I'll take a...

SA told me that now that I have a VIN, the changing EDD reflects the car in transit to the delivery center and an estimation of how busy they will be.

Will do. VIN entered though i don't know where to find vehicleMapId

Blank until early Aug, then EDD that kept shrinking until VIN.

VIN! It happened, it actually HAPPENED! EDD shrunk to Aug 6-10! Cannot wait to update this forum with pics of those ugly 19's!

Is it beginning to happen?! This is incredibly reassuring for me as well since I have Blue Plaid/19/CF/Cream with an EDD now shrunk to a 7 day window. Also just drove from LA to SF fir vacation and saw 4 Tesla delivery trucks headed to LA. Not all S's, but many!

I had a MS P85 with 21's and broke 3 wheels over basic potholes. I don't live in a bad area and it was dumb luck, but WTH! Heavy cars with low profile tires make for fragile wheels and a bumpy ride. I switched to 19 and the ride was incredibly smoother, and never broke a wheel. The added range...

I have daily shrinking date range at both ends (don't jinx it!) Now Aug 5-14. I'd be happy to be the 1st TMC 19" Plaid to offer therapy to the rest of you and join the Leo hates me club.

I had to switch browsers to Firefox for it to work normally again.

You are not alone! Same here. Your suffering has company.

Yep, agreed. I'm with you. I will plan for the worst and hope for the best. If it materialized before the people ahead of me in line though...i would be pissed... And offer therapy rides in my new beast!

Chatsworth here! We should start a local support group. Whoever gets their cars to offer therapy rides to the others.

Blue Plaid, cream interior with CF, 19"

(rubs eyes) I got an EDD! It's been 2 months of blank (ordered in March), checking 4 times a day! It's back... Probably just to tease me, but hey, I'm desperate! Aug 1-15! And i have the 19" cf config. Man i hope this turns into a VIN and then my dream car shows up! Now on to refreshing 10 times...

Yep, and after I broke front and rear passenger side from a speed bump, it was the same price to replace those 2 wheels with 4 brand new, beautiful 19"wheels AND tires for the same price as 2 21" Tesla wheels, and the ride was 10 times better as well. Win/win/win. Except now as we are held...

I cannot wait until this thread has some activity based on 19" wheel progress. o_O

If not too late, please add me too! Adam F. RN11466 Thank you for doing this.

They are like Apple and i have succeeded at avoiding their products completely for that reason. But I cannot resist the Tesla product! And now I am the equivalent of a fanboy camping in front of the store. The Plaid is making me a hypocrite, lol, but i am not leaving my place in line even as...

To regain some sanity, I feel like I should hack my own page so the EDD says "2 weeks".
