    Left and Right Uberturbine Wheels Are Not Mirror Images of Each Other

    Aero isn’t just for energy savings but for less resistance when accelerating as well. I’ve timed 3.09 seconds 0-60 and 11.51 seconds in the 1/4 mile in my M3P with Uberturbines, just saying any negative impact on areo is probably negligible.

    19" vs 20" wheels+tires for Tesla Model 3

    Thanks! Yeah, they don't look too bad sidewall wise. Still pretty sporty looking. I'm still debating but need to decide soon, it'll be cold before I know it. I agree on the summer tires but unfortunately I live in Michigan so I always switch my tires to an ultra high performance all-season...

    19" vs 20" wheels+tires for Tesla Model 3

    So you went with the 235/40r19 Cross Climate 2's? Having the M3P do they affect your launch? Do you get any slip on launches? Those have a B traction rating. I hear a lot of good things about those tires from a lot of people but I don't want to lose my low 3's 0-60 times.

    19" vs 20" wheels+tires for Tesla Model 3

    Do you have any pictures with the 235/45r18's? I am considering but seems like quite a lot of sidewall. Do you notice handling differences from the 20's? I don't feel any sidewall flex on high speed turns with my 235/35r20's. My winters are pretty light and want my all-season tires to be...

    M3P All-Season Setup?

    Yeah it does help. Thanks! Yeah I’m not as worried about hearing the tire rumble either. Quiet can be nice sometimes, especially after a stressful day at work but I never had such a quiet car before anyway. As long as it’s not like driving my 4x4 where is sounds like you have wheel bearings...

    M3P All-Season Setup?

    Cool. Yeah and i know people warn about stability control being affected but my research of that over the years it needs to be a pretty significant difference between the 4 corners and/or expected diameters. If you haven’t tripped and codes or warnings its all good!

    M3P All-Season Setup?

    Good to hear not traction limited. Not that I didn’t enjoy squawking the tires once in a while on my Mustang GT but this M3P is a different animal and if the tires are squawking you’re getting there a second or two slower, lol. A muscle car is supposed to be obnoxious. They used to tell me it...

    M3P All-Season Setup?

    It’s a valid question. I have a lot of experience with performance cars just not all wheel drive performance cars. So I don’t know how the M3P handles launching in non-summer tires. But the reason I would never go winter tires is because the way I drive if there is no snow on the ground I would...

    M3P All-Season Setup?

    Thanks. Yeah. I’ve seen a lot of threads on tires. That’s why I narrowed it down to those two. I only found one thread talking about launch grip of non-summer tires. I didn’t really trust it though because it was saying the crossclimate 2’s never slip on dry. I find that hard to believe because...

    M3P All-Season Setup?

    Just picked up my first Tesla at the end of June. It’s a 2023 M3P with summer tires on 20” Uberturbines. I’m a Michelin fan from my Mustang GT days but I’m still happy with the stock Pirelli’s, I hit 3.3s all day over 70% SOC and never get any tire spin. But I live in Michigan so need to start...
