Hello, from my last road side assistance I needed due to a blown out 21” stock tire, they “had none in stock”. So they send out a flat bed to bring your car home or to a tire service center.

After looking at comparisons, the pilot 4S slightly win Over the goodyear 3. Has anyone have a 315 wide tires on the 20” wheels on the rear of their Plaid?

Thanks for the suggestion. I will look into the comparison to the pilot 4S.

Hello, I have the full Track package on my MSP 2022 including the 20” Zero G wheels and Goodyear 3R tires. Its time to change the 3R’s, and need something more street-able, like the Pilot 4S. What is the largest front and rears that fit? Looking at the 285/35 pilot 4S for front. What about...

Hello, when my 3R’s are done, I will just put the mich pilot sport 4S on, they have the same tire sizes in 20”. Much more veriety at 20” vs 21”

Mine came back with 45psi cold pressure in the g/3R’s all around. If anything these 20” tires seem to take the bumps better than the 21” Arachnids with P4S.Cheers

Totally agree. A more customizable setting, and also being able to change the center and driver screen displays. No reason they couldn’t do this with software upgrades.

Hello, another notable, does it seem the regenerative braking is stronger in non track mode? I remember my wife's MX Plaid was about the same as my MS plaid, but now it seems stronger. my software version is 2023.20.9. And the track software’s now shows the 200mph, so it was properly...

Nope. My pedal goes down less than halfway, then stops. cheers

Hello, I too feel much increased stability at any speed. Maybe some software, but also there is about 18lbs less sprung weight on each wheel due to the rotors being less weight. Not sure about the new G wheel setup. May make a significant suspension reaction improvement IMHO. cheers

Hello all, I have some information on the red/pink “Major” cracks stickers on 3 of my rotor boxes. Early on Tesla engineering seemed to grade each rotor, and use stickers. I see 23plaid boxes have some green dots. Tesla did a bunch of testing with different grades of cracking, and determined...

Hello, I am starting to get some information on the rotors. ”all parts were inspected before being installed.“. Still waiting on the meaning of the red stickers. Hopefully Tesla did add them on some boxes just to relay that the rotor’s natural condition is with these cracks. Im still working...

Pretty sure most of these cracks are now what is to be expected. There are some types of cracks that are not good though . However I had three of my rotor boxes with red stickers on them stating ”Major! Shows Major Cracks!” One box had no red sticker, just a “good” marking. I will find out...

Wow, very similar. Some of my cracks look opened up a bit more, but seems these cracks are expected. Are these bedded in? I will be reaching out to the rotor manufacturer Surface Transformations in the UK, and see if they can provide any additional information.

Hello, Appreciate. I will be driving my Yukon mostly until I get more clarity.

Thanks Dan, Clearly some cracking is normal. I will eventually get to talk to someone at Tesla and get to the bottom of the red “Major Cracks” stickers. Can some else post some close up pictures of their rotors? Comparisons will help. Cheers

Hello, Im still trying to find out what the red Cracked stickers on the rotor boxes are all about, and the ride height issue is a bummer, but can easily be fixed. I had BMW do a Dinan suspension upgrade on my X6M, and also had to return to fix out of spec ride heights. Im not angry with Tesla...

Hello, I got the full track pack, wheels, 3R tires, including knuckles.

Hello All, Yet another + to the upgrade, the 40-46mph front vibration/resonance is gone.😀 Anyone else notice this? My wife’s MX Plaid also has the 40-46mph resonance as well. cheers,

Hello, was able to confirm the SAE J1401 Flexitech 4010 brake lines are the new ones that came with the kit. No SS reinforced brake lines, but they are new.

Hello, great questions. The old steel rotors have no cracks or any damage, almost no wear. Only 4,000 miles on them in a car with regeneration braking. I did take many close up pictures of the new CC rotors and there are natural cracks everywhere, which is normal. Some look larger than...

Regarding the front rotor brake hoses, just wanted to know if they are original OEM, and/or were they supposed to be changed out for something else. The only specs I was able to find is that they are made in Mexico, “Flexitech’s global standard hose – the 4010, made of EPDM inner and outer...

yes they do look clean. Vehicle has 4k miles on it. Maybe these Flexitech SAE J1401 rubber brake hoses are OK, but i have read new ss brake lines are included. My rear OEM calipers still have the OEM brake lines connected to them, so they were changed. The Front calipers just have plugs, no...

Hello, Further inspection of my track pack shows the stock SAE J1401 rubber brake hoses remain. Is there supposed to be upgraded stainless steel flex brake lines included for the front rotors? All the best

Yes , im familiar with track tires, not expecting much life but new they are fun. Great sidewall strength also. Don't hesitate to do the upgrade it is a great improvement. Just make sure you check your ride height for compliance (+-5mm) and ask them to put your old rotors in the CC rotor...

Yes on the street and a few tracks of course. On the street, The heat cycles wont be that extreme, so there more cycles most likely 50. I only put on 2000m/y, have a Yukon for the cold months, so Im happy if they last a year or so. They are fantastic tires….for now.

Yes, I am scheduled for that tweak on the 8th. However still waiting on the potential 3 bad rotors…….

Well somehow the difference is now +- 15mm or about 2 fingers.

They do state re-alignment performed, but nothing about height adjustment. I set up another service visit for the 8th.

OK here is some feedback for the full track package with knuckles wheels, tires. Driving no track mode yet, ride heigh medium. Comparison to Arachnids 21” with Pilot S4. Pros: 1. Tires are really quiet. Really. Goodyear 3R. 2. Ride is maybe a little smoother, especially over bumps. 3. Handling...

Oh boy, I will try and get some answers. Will update. Anyone have a real tech support number for Tesla? Cantbseem to get anyone at the SC who knows much. Well im the first one, somall can possibly learn what to check out when they pick up their car…….

Thanks, great info. I drove my car 32 miles, so it should have settled. My deviation is +-15mm easy. Will try and talk with SC, but that seems to be almost impossible.

Did your boxes have 9 red stickers?

Yes they are the boxes. First install at sc. don't know what the bright red “Major!” stickers mean, but trying to find out.

Hello all, I also noticed the ride heights top of tire to fender edge were all different. Left front two fingers tire to fender, right front 2 fingers +5mm, left rear 3 fingers, and right rear almost 4 fingers. measured with ride hight set to medium. Does anyone know the correct spec and how...

Hello, OK picked up car today with full track pack installed. Some questions I need to get cleared up with some help. From others out there. After I got home with the old rotors in the original ST boxes I noticed the following. 3 boxes were labeled with bright red stickers indicating Major...

Hi Track packers, my ride is in today for the full upgrade. I was told first in this NJ SC, maybe even NJ. Said it will take 3 days. I spoke with the mechanics and they were quite knowledgable about the Hydra 406 brake fluid, knuckles, and bedding. Will update on the install and the braking...

Hi Track Packers, Doing some research our CCB rotors are made by Surface Transforms in the UK. There is a break in instructions I think we might all benefit from. Follow the link: The correct way to bed-in your CCST brake discs - Surface Transforms Cheers

Hi Track Packers, I just received and update that my NJ service center should have all parts on the 5th of July. Still have a scheduled 11th install appointment. I'm told this is the first install at their service center, and maybe all of NJ. Anyone in NJ in the Queue? Cheers

Hello, Im in the Q for the full track package with wheels and tire, still waiting for all the parts. However my parts list has the brakes, knuckles, nuts, and tires. No wheels. What are the parts numbers for the 20” wheels? Cheers

Hello, my service contact in NJ let me know he has the tires. Nothing else at this time. they are working to get a complete kit somehow. I will be patient, and keep enjoying my Plaid, will keep updating. all the best,

HI Track Packers, I have had my track pack (with wheels/tires) on order since June 3rd, and had an install date of June 21st in NJ yesterday. Even though I asked the service site if they had the parts, they responded "Yes we do" However, after I got to a service rep, all of a sudden, they...

Hello all, I wanted to let everyone know I picked up my MXP this Tuesday and it was near perfect. Some small stickers around, but otherwise clean and amazing. I’ve been a Mercedes amg guy for years. This model X surpasses my expectations. Those soft close doors are great. Wish they were on...

Totally agree on not being picky, nothing is perfect, none of my gas vehicles, nor my MSP was perfect, there should be consideration for some minor issues. Cheers,

Just got a delivery date of 3/19. Will update on the outcome and experience. I picked up a MSP in December, and having my son who has experienced the Tesla pick up experience (he has a M3P) helped quite a bit. If you can have someone go with you with Tesla pick up experience do it. Also a...

Hello, Just got VIN this morning. -NF335xxx. EDD now 3/25-3/31. Order date 8/21. MXP, red, cream, 6 seater, 22. Northern NJ. :)

OK, seems not matrix, but there are quite a few LED and reflectors in there. My tail lights look like a 2022. thanks for the help. cheers

Hello, I have a MSP white, 21” with a build date of 12/21/21. I was reading that Tesla was recently upgrading MS to matrix headlights. Yet my headlights look very similar to Matrix I think. How can you tell?

Yes, I got the call after calling Tesla, and my SA statingI had a 7 seater on order, and you need to change the order. They said OK, someone w get back to me. 3 days later I got the call, giving me two options. 6 seat MXP or MXLR 7 seater. I recommend anyone with a 7 or 5 seater MXP to...
