    Great post :smile:. I was skeptical when I bought the winter tire package from Tesla and saw that they had Pirelli's, like you I would have rather had the Michelin - X-Ice Xi3 tires on the rims or the Nokian's all weather. Hopefully this winter winter and the next 3 winters are OK with the...

    My Model S has arrived :biggrin:. About the pictures; my camera was some how set to aqua and as such gave it this blue hue/tint that I didn't recognize until later. The car is impressive. I had to remember how to drive it again (the last time I drove a Tesla was at the Toronto SC last year...
