    America's tire lifting model Y without jack pad - is it safe?

    That's correct, essentially the same, just that the name "Discount Tire" was not allowed in California, so they used a new name to run the business.

    America's tire lifting model Y without jack pad - is it safe?

    Located at NorCal, when visiting my local America's Tire store, I saw them lifting Model Y by a flatbed lift without using the lift pads (photo attached). And to give you some ideas about the lifting device, it is something like Save On Aston ASL-MR8012 - 8,000 lb Capacity Scissor Lift at...

    Model Y 19'' ProContact RX factory tire in Tahoe: will it be OK?

    sigh.. I hoped Tesla can give an option to choose the OEM tire, so that I don't need to worry about how to deal with the factory tires sitting in the garage.

    Model Y 19'' ProContact RX factory tire in Tahoe: will it be OK?

    Hi all, newbie here waiting for Model Y delivery next month with 19’’ Gemini Wheels. I live in San Jose, CA so even 2WD meets 95% of my needs, with only one exception: I go to Tahoe for snowboarding sometimes during the winter. Thanks to this forum, I read several posts about people's review...
