I know, it is now the way it was supposed to be. Great to see they finally came around to fix this.

Got my plaid with 21” had the issue, could not find tires last august so bought a set of 19” with Pirelli’s and they definitely ride better and are wearing normally, also like the extra 45 miles of range on top of the smoother ride and better pothole resistance. I actually like the look of the...

Just went for a service for minor stuff and they did replace the radar for the same issue under warranty.

Actually the Model S and X delivered in Europe do have the Yoke. Also I do all you mention and have no problems for the past 7 months. Your arguments are invalid compared to the actual use. Good day sir!

7 Months in, I love the yoke.

Yes I did get both front and rear, they are the one that comes standard. 255/45R19 104Y XL Front 285/40R19 107Y XL rear

Falken has that size tires available But they are not with foam inside, some people reported that they are noisy. There is a thread about tire issues with 21” Plaid 21”rear tire woes - factory defect? Had the same issue, bought a set of 19 tempest with the pirellis on eBay, very happy as there...

In the model S it stays on the bottom and if I press in FSD it does take a shot but no special message comes up.

Thanks

Any other way to report, that button is awfully small and for me it’s at the bottom of the screen or is it another button?

agree it’s minuscule On the acceleration. But on the comfort I find it absorbs little inperfections a lot better than the Michelin, the ride is smoother.

Interesting, maybe it’s either because I had them road force balanced? or just a lucky streak? With the 21’s I had the vibration but not everywhere and everytime. I also noticed that it usually went away for a while after a long trip on the highway.

Just FYI, had the exact same issue and could not get replacement Michelin, bought a set of 19” tempest wheel, no issues, and the pirelli’s are widely available. much more comfortable and more range.

Me too, but the 19’s are definitely much more comfortable, they absorb a lot of the small bumps, not mentioning better for potholes. Also I gained close to 50 Miles of range with those wheels, and the car is a bit quicker due to lower wheel mass. Feels a lot more magic carpet ride now. Also...

The vibration felt in the Yoke between 38 to 50 MPH that is described in this thread.

Had the 21 inch Michelin tires that got chwewed up and also had the vibration. Switched to the tempest 19 inch wheels and stock pirellis and I do not have the vibration anymore.

I did that does not solve the issue.

Does anyone know what is the pressure for the pirelli on the standard 19? Switched from the 21 and not sure if PSI is 40 for the pirelli as it was for the Michelin?

Darn, hate to swipe down every time I backup home.

Anyone knows if there is a possibility to resize the homelink widget, it obstruct the side cameras? I backup in the garage due to the location of my Wall charger.

Cool. Thanks

Just got my set of 19 tempest with the Pirelli installed, love the added comfort. Hope that solve that issue. Funny thing is there were those weird thing in each 21 Michelin tire, anyone knows what this is?

That’s going to age me, but I remember driving plenty of cars where the horns were not on the center of the wheel but a button on top of the stalks or a separate stalk altogether. Nobody cried bloody murder because of those, and they sold millions of those they where VW‘s, Datsun’s, 1960’s...

Thanks a lot

I have a stupid question, I have a set of 19“ wheels with pirellis (from another plaid) coming my way, do I need to change the TPMS to the one I have on my Michelins or will the car just synch to the new TPMS? I read somewhere that it should be automatic, just want to make sure.

I guess the Falken will be my last resort if the 19 inch set I bought does not come thru.

Darn, Just bought a set from EBay, if it does not pan out, I’ll def. Contact you

No Hijacking, actually a good question, I thought about getting those, but I do not know anything about falke. Wondering the same.

Duh, I don’t have those, the tire is still on the car.

Thinking of going with 19’ tempest wheel as it increases range most likely comfort and pirelli seem to be readily available. There are no difference between the one from a long range Models S (refreshed) and the one on the plaid is there? Found some on Ebay just want to make sure.

That was the picture of the inside rear left. Outside looks perfect.

Went to the tire shop yesterday as I had a slow leak, Bingo, same issue. Sent info to Tesla service. What worries me is my tire shop could not fin a replacement, and Tire Rack has them available only in October. Any ideas? I was thinking of switching to 19’s tempest for the extra range and...

Never once did that.

We are starting to worry about your mental health. Go out smell the roses, take a walk, enjoy nature. You obsession is not healthy. You don’t like it we get it. Move the F## on, or sue, this is tiring.

Great, now you are just filling the space. Soon you will be replying to yourself So you can keep those threads going. WE GET IT ! You don’t like the yoke! Stop frothing at the mouth about it and move on, this is getting tiring to have your constant rants. I have the yoke, I like it, to each...

We are not upset, just tired to see the same guy going on and on and on and on about how the yoke is the worse in many many different threads. That’s all.

Love mine, would not change it for the world and this thread is getting ridiculous. You don’t like it? Fine, drive something else or Install a aftermarket wheel. GET OVER IT! I like it because of: Better Hand position, safer in case of airbag deployment as your hands are where they are supposed...

Better Hand position, safer in case of airbag deployment as your hands are where they are supposed to be instead of risking to break your elbows. Very comfy for long distance driving. I have the plaid since May and I can do 3 point turn as fast as I used to with a normal wheel. I positioned it...

I have a 12 max and it works just fine.

Defintiely, also the 9 and 3 position feel more natural with the yoke quite low, my arms have a natural bend and not pulled up. I still have room to rotate the whole thing without touching my legs.

I had the same question, I have now a model S plaid, I activated the function that moves the seat back and raise and pushes in the yoke and I can get out and in easy without bumping anything and I’m 6’5 chunky and stiff as a board.

YAY?? Could it be temperature related? It’s very hot here right now.

Had the dreaded Vibration between 40/50MPH it was intermittent and seemed very related to the road surface, I thought that could be tire related , did a couple of 400 miles highway day trips, vibration is gone for now.

Just did two 400 miles round trips, found it very relaxing, but the position due to the Yoke is very different that what I setup with a normal wheel. My yoke is much lower than a normal wheel. I can grab the yoke at the proper place and have my elbows resting on the side rests. (I’m 6’5 don’t...

I am now on week 3 of my plaid, love the yoke, didn’t take me long to get used to it. I particularly like the blinker placement for some reasons. My grip and hand placement have evolved and I have zero issue in any situations.
