And?!?

Not sure! I doubt you will need spacers. if you get your wheels and discover that you do Amazon and summit racing have lots for sale.

Sorry I meant to reply to this thread the other day! I love the Apex ec7 wheels in 18x9.5. these are the reasons why: they bolt directly on and clear the brakes and clear the chamfered lip on the hub, and do NOT require centering rings, even if they say they do. The offset is perfect front...

2022 Model 3 performance here, which is a gen 2 tesla, 42k miles. No maintenance, nothing has broken or failed other than replacing the gps antenna under warranty. We have just replaced tires as needed. No gas car could do that. L8d

I highly recommend the apex 18x9.5 wheels. The ec7s are great, and I have no issues without hub centric spacers, on the street or track. Brake clearance is great. They are lighter and stronger than most other options. Simply a higher performance wheel than others at the price point. I run...

And I removed that scoop shaped duct in video 1 and it has made the stinky smell show up 90% less. I have not changed my filters since I initially started this thread. As per the videos the rest of what's necessary is up to Tesla programming not sucking in outside moist air in an attempt to...

I read that the service menu shows you this information now without any scanning tools.

Sold! Don't know how to mark it or change post, or delete post...

So are the front axles still an issue on new model X's if you get on power hard all the time? Have they improved that over time if they've made major changes?

Bump again

No conclusion here.

Perhaps you could do better and make the post polite?

There was some good info in that post, and I thank you for it. I'll put it here for others to read: You’d need to make sure that the hot wires from the two plugs are on the same phase of service, that each leg of each circuit connects to the same blades in each receptacle, which you would...

I would love dc fast charging there but it's very uncommon. And I cannot hardwire anything on someone else's property. Anyone have any ideas? L8d

Please list the reasons, as that's why I made the post. What you suggest doesn't work due to voltage drop. Some of the 50a plugs at some tracks give a 5% voltage drop when producing 32a. The wiring gets hot enough asking 32a from a single plug.

Has anybody ever wired a wall charger to simultaneously plug into 2 nema 14-50 outlets for faster charging at the racetrack? I'm sure somebody's going to ask why so here goes...you need to charge as quickly as you can at the track, and you only have access to 50a plugs scattered about the...

Bump!

Awesome! Need to come out and meet you guys. May buy another Tessie soon

I like mauldin road and tire for aligning my cars when I don't align them myself. L8d

Anybody else have any recommendations? And independent Tesla mechanic or shop anywhere near Greenville South Carolina?

Very cool

Let's agree upon this...trucks are good for work and construction. F150s are barely trucks, and most people that buy them don't use them for work. They use them to show the appearance of being hard working people. Tesla are made by Elon Musk, therefore nothing is finer. Elon knows best in...

Totally agree. Just saying I don't see any f-150s on THAT kind of job site either.

It would nice to see people with f-150s do real work with them. Even when they do they definitely wouldn't do that lol. Truck commercials are so funny.

Tesla's are, in comparison to most other vehicles performance cars. Performance cars need high performance tires. High performance tires don't last as long as long mileage tires because they are softer. Yes they EVs heavier which reduces tire life. But in comparison to other performance cars...

Bump!

I have not tested to see if what they suggested worked. I would need to deflate or hyperinflate a tire and check it. I drove the car for a week and it didn't self correct. And used to be you press the tire rotation button and it would figure it out after like 60 seconds. I don't understand...

I asked Tesla via app: Any recommendations on how to get the car to relearn new tire positions after a tire rotation? The new tire service reset button did not work. It thinks the front tires are the rear tires. I also did the two button restart on the car that did not help either. Tesla...

It should be able to do its job. The car has some of the best computers in the industry, is upgradable over the air, and it didn't used to be a problem. It clearly is now to many people. Tesla needs to get their act together.

Yes...how is it done?

I did press the new tire service reset button. It did not help, I tried it again it did not help. I reset the car with double buttons and it did not help. The car thinks the front tires are the rear tires and it's thought that for a week now. Any recommendations? L8d

And again

Well?

Bump! Does anybody know what this button does?

I would not be concerned running an extension cord and charging. The cool thing is you can watch for voltage drop on your screen in the Tesla while it's charging, and pick whatever amperage you're comfortable running to charge. If you have lots of voltage drop you're putting a strain on the...

Nobody interested on a set of used Uberturbines that have been checked, trued if needed, and verified to be not bent by a professional?

I don't know why you both got on a Romex kick. I was just saying that home charging at 3.6 kw (15a/240v) works well under normal circumstances for me.

Yep! I gotcha. I'm good then. Thanks!

Thanks for the info, it's 6g copper wire as Tesla specifies.

At home I have a wall connector that is wired to do 48a 240v, with 6 gauge wires and a 60a breaker. Even though I have all of that juice, when charging overnight I limit my charge speed to 15a 240v, which is about 3.6kw. It's plenty for us as long as we plan ahead a little...like don't run it...

Andy says they do! I don't have a lot of details. He just said "they do"

I'm not sure! Let me ask my model y friend. Also if you are nearby you're welcome to come try them on for fitment.
