    I just got the $200-extra-on-the-next-registration notice :(

    My registration is up in Sept. and I renewed today. Didn't pay the extra fee since it is before Sept. 1. Don't forget if you have a Sept. or Oct. renewal!

    WTB One (1) 19x9 wheel for Performance Model 3 - DFW area preferred

    Would also take a 19x8.5 because my tire would fit on that.

    WTB One (1) 19x9 wheel for Performance Model 3 - DFW area preferred

    Weird request, but I cracked a wheel and it's going to be 10-12 weeks before a new one will come in. So I'd like to buy a used 19x9 wheel that will fit my Performance 3. I will either re-sell it when the new wheels comes in or keep it as a spare. Local pickup in DFW preferred to save shipping...

    Best option for two cars - Model 3 + XC90 T8

    Here it is installed. Need to get the cables sorted out but it charged both cars like a champ. You can get a sense of the size as compared to the standard 14-50 outlet it's plugged into.

    WTB Multi Coat Red paint kit and J1772 adapter

    Random, but I need each of these things. Figured I'd post here before I got them from Tesla.

    To be installed Monday. It's more compact than I thought.

    Would you part out the adapter only?

    Best option for two cars - Model 3 + XC90 T8

    Pulled the trigger on the Grizzl-E Duo. Since it plugs into a 14-50 it should be easy to get something else if it sucks. Thanks for all the input!

    Best option for two cars - Model 3 + XC90 T8

    I think I'd rather pay an electrician for one install now. I can always put in another one down the road. Any reason to spend $700 more on the Clipper Creek dual charger over the Grizzl-E? They are both 10kW/40A. The only thing I like better about the CC is that it's hardwired, but I don't...

    Well... apparently there's an option 3: A Tesla wall connector and this! J1772 Wall Connector 🤯

    Best option for two cars - Model 3 + XC90 T8

    We recently moved, and my wife just got a Volvo XC90 T8, so I need to figure out charging in the new house. The house was has a new panel with 200A service, so capacity should not not be an issue. What I am trying to decide between is: Option 1: A Tesla wall connector for my car (2021 Model 3...

    Dallas vs Plano Service Center

    I've used both -- Plano probably only three times and Dallas maybe around 10. I can't really say there's a consistent difference. Both can be hit or miss.

    how much mileage do you lose if you remove the aero wheel cover?

    I am running stock lug nuts on my new wheels, and I had a hard time finding just lug nut covers without aero caps. So I bought this on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07W7CWMZX/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I'm not using the aero caps, but they seem quality.
  14. Boourns

    how much mileage do you lose if you remove the aero wheel cover?

    Something like 4 percent at highway speeds. So unless you are really pushing it on range and doing a lot of higher speed driving, you probay won't even notice.

    Titan7 T-S5. 19x9 square in techna bronze. Stock performance height. I’ve posted a bunch of pics since I got them in October that you can find in my post history. If there are pics of anything specific you want I’m happy to snap some.

    Thanks. I had the same concern, but a bronze set was in stock for a deal and I was impatient. So I rolled the dice, and they ended up looking better than I thought. Really happy with how it turned out.

    Performance winter tires for M3P and 18" vs 19" wheels

    There is a thread in here with a link to a google spreadsheet with a bunch of 18” wheels confirmed to fit on the MP3. Might be a good place to start.

    Aftermarket Wheels on Model 3

    I got some cheap covers on Amazon and they look fine: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07W7CWMZX/ Next time I need a rotation I’ll probably pick up a set of black Wheel Mates from Model+.

    Aftermarket Wheels on Model 3

    If money was not a factor I’d get the Signatures. For me it was, so I went with the Titan 7s, and have been really happy with them. The Vossens look nice, but you can get a fully forged wheel for not that much more, so I’d rule those out.

    Tesla auto wipers is a real danger

    The auto wipers worked way better on my 2018. Never had to touch them. On the 2021 they are terrible. But the reverse is true for the auto high beams. 2021 is much improved.

    Model 3 Tires, Tire Sizes, Types, make / model recommendations, tire discussions, etc

    No personal experience but I don’t see any way a 19 x 11 fits. The 19x10 probably will fit if you use spacers. You’ll also need some hub centric rings because I believe the bore size for mustangs is larger than the 64.1 on the 3. The problem though is a 285/35/19 tire is very close to 27” in...

    How can any non-OEM wheels work on the performance model?

    These are what you're looking for. You can use any hub ring with them: Performance Hub Stepped Lip Delete Kit Or you can buy hub ring made to account for it like @HORN HIGH ACES posted. Or you buy wheels specifically made for the Model 3 performance that accounts for the lip so you don't have...

    Aftermarket Wheels on Model 3

    It seems like they might? See here: Tesla 19” sport wheels on Model 3 Performance with PUP? The only issue should be whether the wheel has the extra step to account for the hub lip on the performance models. The thread I linked seems to be evidence that the sport wheels do have the extra lip.

    In progress: Model 3 pulling loaded 1,900lbs~ 5x8 utility trailer 1,700 miles

    I think OP means he was just using TACC and not full AP. So one click down on the stalk to regulate speed relative to the semi in front, but not letting the car steer.

    Keycard required every time when trying to drive..

    Have you done a soft reboot of the car by holding down both steering wheel buttons? Also restart your phone. If you have done that plus all of the above, it sounds like a problem I'd contact Tesla about.

    In progress: Model 3 pulling loaded 1,900lbs~ 5x8 utility trailer 1,700 miles

    I knew this thread was going to be great as soon as I saw that the second photo is a CAD drawing. I know the average speed was <60, but 328Wh/mi while towing a fully loaded trailer is pretty impressive. There are plenty of owners whose lifetime average is higher than that.

    I didn't dig super deep because they were more than I wanted to spend, but I think $3500 or so is what a monoblock set will cost you.

    Aftermarket Wheels on Model 3

    Check out BC Forged. They have so many designs there will probably be one or two you like. The TD03 and the whole RT series are super classic 5- and 7-spoke wheels. And they have a lot of "softer" split spoke designs as well. And I think they are a pretty well known and established brand...

    Model+ recommends 235/40/19 on 19x9, so you should be fine. 18-20" Titan 7 T-S5 Wheel Set Your other option would be to see if you could exchange the tires for 245 width, presuming they haven't been mounted and are still new. I am running 245/40/19 on my 19x9 Titan7s.

    I had a really good experience with GMTV in September. They were the highest bid out of CarMax, Vroom, and Carvana, and then I got them to increase the offer by another $500. All of the above were higher than the Tesla trade offer by a few thousand dollars. GMTV is local here, so I signed the...
