    Canada Model S Plaid and LR orders and deliveries!

    I have lambo Evo and Av SVJ, Porsche GT3RS, and Bentley GT. I like the plaid because it is so normal looking and silent. Driving my lovely lambos I get all the attention and everyone in a cheap civic or STI wants to race me, however on plaid anyone that tries gets a rude awakening. Don’t get...

    Thanks for the explanation, it makes perfect sense. I am glad I didn’t call SC.

    2021+ Model S and Model S Plaid Refresh Issues Thread

    For the most part my car is perfect. We have major ocd. No dust and no lint. Not sure if these dots are part of the screen graphics or it’s defect on screen panel. Would appreciate some screen shots from other fellow MS owners

    Does anyone see small dots on top part of driver display. I notice patterns of dark gray dots. Noticeable on speed limit or drag strip.

    Finally picked up the plaid….. First impressions: Yoke is odd, as much as I was looking forward to it and knowing that I will get used to it and in a few months can’t drive a regular wheel. I have to admit I almost ran into another car while making a slow right hand turn. Slipped the wheel and...

    Got it and I am sorry you been given the round around. There are several plaids on hand in GTA area. I also think they may discount them before year end. Many of them are 2021 models which are being declined for pickup. Just a thought.

    Canada Model S Plaid and LR orders and deliveries!

    My car finally landed, well sort of. I think someone with the exact configuration refused delivery, possibly to get the 2022 model. I got lucky because I was talking with my SA (who is amazing) to find out why my original order was stuck in CA. He said there is another car that was made on the...

    Being getting delivery push backs, now my loan is reset at 3.1% vs 2.8%. Plus more down payment. Considering buying it cash and avoiding high rates Has anyone experienced the same?

    Have you tried them on yet? I tried the 19x8.5 on 245s from 2019 MS and they didn’t work. Hits the break.

    2mm might work. I really didn’t measure it, but from looking at it the 8.5 rims where just touching the break shield, enough to run against it. Best to have the shop do a test fit before mounting the tire on wheel.

    Canada Model S Plaid and LR orders and deliveries!

    I took my 19x8.5 sets from previous models S (2020) to SC and tried it on plaid. They DO NOT fit. The front will hit the break calliper. You can choose to remove the shield but it is not recommended. It’s there for a reason. Bought a set of 19x9.5 with 255/45/19 and 38mm offset. Haven’t tried...

    Winter tires for the Model S Plaid ?

    That’s my problem as well. Even with no snow, I heard that these tires don’t do so good on cold and they may get damaged. So I be crawling home and will swap in my garage. 🤪 unless Tesla SC is willing to do it before delivery

    Got delivery for Dec4, car was made on Nov10, 24 days to delivery is too long for Tesla. Usually 10 days. I think they are holding them for some reason. Possibly firmware or something.

    Mine is MF and I will take it gladly. I don’t think anyone can / should risk paying lux tax for 2022. Furthermore Tesla price doesn’t change by model year but rather millage.

    I dont like to go too wide, ideally 255 is my limit. On thick and heavy snow it will act like snow shoes.

    You need to know the rim size and offset. If they are on 9.5 and 35 then likely yes

    Winter tires for the Model S Plaid ?

    The previous 19x8.5 does not work on plaid. From what I found is that it interferes with front brake shields. The only option is to remove the shield. Which I decided not to do. I went with 19x9.5 with 255/45/19 tires I believe the offset is 35 as well. Will pickup in a few weeks and will post...

    Did tons of researched and decided to go with square setup not scattered. 19x9.5 rims with 255/45/19. Based on my experience with MX performance and RS7 narrower square does better job in heavy snow and slush. Scattered would be nice in cold days if you want to drive a bit more aggressive...

    It’s a difficult question it seems. Been researching and not able to find a good answer on square setup. Tesla recommends the standard 19 scattered for winter. Below is the official spec from Tesla winter package which should come out in few weeks. I assume it will cost around 5-6k which is very...

    Had similar issue on my MX a few years ago and decided to just learn to love it. As long as trim looks closed without issue. I had issues with window seal that SC was never able to fix. However found some good tips on web and fixed it using a small stick and silicon gun.
