    Considerations when swapping P3+ 20" stock wheels to Tsportline's 18"?

    That is true, but there isn't a whole lot of clearance between the caliper and barrel. Just try not to nick the caliper while aligning the bolt holes onto the bolts. But yes, the wheels sit flush against the hub. I got the Continental DWS06 all seasons.

    Considerations when swapping P3+ 20" stock wheels to Tsportline's 18"?

    I did this last year. No real gotchas, just be careful when mounting the 18s as there isn’t a ton of clearance between the brake calipers and the inside of the wheel. Otherwise, I have about 14k miles on mine and no complaints. Ride is both quieter and smoother, albeit handling suffered just a...

    Model 3 t-boned. Need DV Expert, Appraiser and Legal Help in Orange County

    They actually were, but there wasn’t much they could do at that point. The DV adjusters are hard to fight (my guy said he has an over 90% success rate getting full amount for his clients). The key is to make sure the repair is done well, so they can’t blame the DV on the body shop. The at fault...

    Model 3 t-boned. Need DV Expert, Appraiser and Legal Help in Orange County

    I had a similar issue with my X last year. Wife got hit on the highway, about 5k in damages. I called one of those personal injury attorneys, he gave me the number of his independent DV adjuster. I had my insurance company pay for all the repairs, got the police report and had them go after...

    'Chrome delete' standard

    Just FYI the cars in person had chrome, so I wouldn’t get too excited yet (although this should absolutely be an option)

    Am I the only person who thinks the Y is kinda fugly?

    Not impressed either. Not that I dislike the Y per we, just that introducing this after the 3 and it being an almost identical copycat even down to using the same wheels is lame. This is probably what they should have made all along, instead of the 3. The small suv/hatchback will have much...

    FS: Like new 20" Model 3 Wheels/Tires (DC/MD/VA)

    I'm selling my original 20" wheels/tires/tpms off my Performance 3. I picked the car up and swapped to my winter set. The wheels/tires are brand new, less than 25 miles on them. I can take pics of needed, but they are currently wrapped up Tesla storage bags. $3,000 cash or venmo.

    Lumbar adjustments not working as expected

    I’m having this same issue as well. An annoying hump right in the middle back that either seems worse than delivery or I just started noticing it.

    This is the complete OEM setup from Tesla with the 20" wheels, TPMS and Pirelli Sottozero II tires. Tires have approximately 4k miles on them. The wheels were plastidipped which I just peeled off, so there are no scratches, curb rash or other imperfections. $2,600. Cash or Venmo.

    Tinting Recommendation for Maryland

    AP Tint in Sykesville. They’ve done both my Tesla’s and they always have Tesla’s in the shop, outstanding work.

    M3 issue in the Colorado Mountains

    I have the Tesla Sottozero II winter tire package and I'm not impressed either. Way too much fishtailing, even when the power is turned down. The tires do track and stop very well, even in fresh snow, so I do not believe it is a tire issue. My X has far more controlled acceleratoin, even with...

    Model 3 20" Performance Winter setup (MD/DC/VA)

    Hi all, I'm selling my 20" Tesla winter wheels/tires with TPMS. This is the complete winter set from Tesla. Love them, but my wife has decided to make this her commuter to Baltimore daily and I’m worried about the longevity of the 20s on those terrible city roads. They are currently...

    Performance Model 3 Snow Tires/Rims

    Pic of mine from recent East Coast storm. NOT impressed so far with snow handling. Tires are the Sottozero II on the 20" package from Tesla, they stop great and track well, however there's too much rear torque bias and the rear end wants to come out in turns. Reducing power from Standard to...

    Anyone have White Interior with tint?

    I also agree about going darker than you think, I'll try to get a daytime pic but even 15% is not that dark during the day. On my previous car with a black interior you couldn't see in at 15%, on my 3 you can see right in, the white interior really affects it. I do agree as well that my side...

    Next generation Model X

    I own and X and 3 and my father has an S. After having the 3 for a month, I would not buy an S or X right now. My wife and I are both choosing the 3 nearly everytime over the X. The 3 is better in every way, except for the auto-opening doors and the giant windshield. The interior is so far...

    Model 3 or used Model S?

    Good decision. I have a mid-2017 build X and a 3. My father has an S 100D. Outside of pure cargo capacity and front seats, the 3 is hands down a better car than either the X or S. The interior on the 3 is very similar passenger size wise when compared to an S. In fact there is more headroom in...

    Fog light alignment

    I was driving around my neighborhood this morning with just the fogs and parking lights on and noticed that my driver side fog light seems to be aligned either further out or higher up than the passenger side. I have aligned my headlights to make sure they are riughly even so I don’t believe...

    Performance Model 3 Snow Tires/Rims

    What made you both go up in pressure? I have the Pirelli Sottozeros on the stock 20s and actually just dropped to 40psi cold. It seems to be slightly quieter, but I also just hit 1k miles so they may be breaking in as well. I had a humm originally but I don’tnotice it anymore.

    Keycard / BT issue

    So ive been playing around with my car today, if I have my phone shut off and unlock the car with the keycard, I can get in and start without placing the keycard on the cup holder. Anyone else notice this? I thought when using the keycard you had to put it by the cup holder to fully start??

    Performance Model 3 Snow Tires/Rims

    They are the 2s. I actually wanted the Alpins and the SC said they would install them, but TireRack sold out so I just did the full Tesla package. Price was identical wither way. They have a mild "hum" mostly during acceleration. I only have 350mi on them and I think it is starting to decrease...

    Is air suspension available on model 3 performance?

    I thought I wanted to wait for air until I drove the 3... Now I think all the Tesla's with SAS ride like crap, including my X and my dad's S. Drive it back to back with a 3 and you'll feel the slight wallowing, its always there and highly annoying once you notice it. The 3 has a far more...

    Performance Model 3 Snow Tires/Rims

    I just got my Tesla 20" winter tire package installed with the Pirelli Sottozero II. So far so good, the ride is as good as the Pilot Sports and the road noise doesn't seem noticeably worse.

    Ordered 11/8, got assigned 56xxx VIN, concerned?

    I know someone who just picked up their 3, VIN was in 56XXX range. It was manufactured in October, so don't worry about the VIN, its likely fine. Mine is 81XXX and was also made in October.

    Checked out my P3D two days before delivery: It's flawless

    Found mine at Owings Mills this afternoon. Nearly flawless, there's a few nicks in one of the taillight lenses, but no paint or panel gap issues! Looks much better than my X did a year and a half ago. Going to see if I can move up delivery to tomorrow!

    Performance Upgrade Price Change!

    It's not in my account yet, but yes should get it. They auto applied the previous $500 savings from the white interior change back when that happened. I assume within the next few days it'll be updated.

    Performance Upgrade Price Change!

    This same thing bit me when I bought my X, premium package was free a month or so later. That was an $8k hit. Guess I'm getting lucky this round.
