    1Up bike rack and trunk clearance on Model 3?

    2014 S85. Hitch install on the S is fairly straightforward, will require cutting a hole to the bottom of the bumper to make room for the receiver hitch, and you'll need to purchase a magnet mounted cover so the hole is not exposed when the rack is not used. Securing the bolt to lock in the...

    1Up bike rack and trunk clearance on Model 3?

    1UP racks can be adjusted (closer or away) from the bumper as you prefer, then lock in place (tighten the rack on the receiver) using the bolt (part of the rack) with the associated key. This is to secure the bike rack from wobbling. The rack has a slotted hole so you can adjust the distance...

    1Up bike rack and trunk clearance on Model 3?

    Installed Stealth EcoHitch on my wife's Model S and based on my experience clearance is an issue. Slight driveway angles causes the 1UP rack (with eBike) to rub. The Model S has air suspension which helps prevent (when raised) pavement rubbing but overall it will work but just be mindful when...

    Ohlins DFV Coilover Kit Installed!!

    Is there a consensus (from those with installed kit) if there is noise coming from the Ohlins DFV coilover - above noise level than the OEM? And can someone describe the "noise"? Is it a thud, grinding, creaking,...on compression, rebound, both? Thanks. Still waiting for my order to arrive but I...

    Fixing a paint chip costs $1,700??!!!

    If instead you install a rear lip MYP spoiler that entire area will be covered. Touch up the area first and then install the spoiler. I own a MYP and looked at the coverage area before replying to your message. it will be fully covered by the spoiler

    ordering rims, 20x9.5 offset 35? tires 245/45R/20?

    Here's a good summary regarding wheel load ratings. And looking at TSportline's collection of 20" wheels the 3 I looked at are all rated at 900kg/1980 lbs per wheel. https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/18-aero-wheels-and-model-y-load-limits.189813/

    Ohlins DFV Coilover Kit Installed!!

    Darn. I was there in Manhattan Beach this past weekend to visit my nephew. Manhattan Beach is a beautiful place, by the way. Thanks for the offer. By the way I’ve been working with a wheel fabricator in China, had them build me a Volk Racing replica😊, 20x9.5, +35mm offset, forged. My son has a...

    Ohlins DFV Coilover Kit Installed!!

    Thanks for the detailed response. Until I actually ride these coilovers I'll never be sure which route to go (GT vs Sports) and after driving these past two days on my brother's Model X (air suspension - set to low) from the Los Angeles freeway 405 heading south to Long Beach freeway 405 I can...

    Bay Area owners with Rewood Motors Perf Coils

    Astute advice😉. I actually live in Fremont, say 4 miles from Redwood Motorsports, but in talking to them I did not get the impression that they had a demo MY to test, and I failed to ask that simple question.

    Bay Area owners with Rewood Motors Perf Coils

    Checking to see if anyone in the Bay Area, closer to the east bay, have these coils installed- I guess either GT or Sports - and would be willing to take me for a ride to sample what the suspension feels like. And I would even go as far as pay for your time, so long as it is within reason😉. It's...

    Ohlins DFV Coilover Kit Installed!!

    How the does your GT coilovers handle when you have three or four people in the car? You mentioned bottoming when approaching steep driveways, was your car loaded with people or just you? Trying to balance out softer springs (GT version) for comfort vs firmer springs (Perf version) for improved...

    Almost track ready MYP

    Nice build! I'm on the fence choosing between GT Touring and Performance Sport Rewood Motorsports coilovers. Can you briefly describe the ride characteristic of your Performance coilovers - damping settings, comparison to stock suspension, daily driving experience? Are you getting full stroke on...

    New/Better Subwoofer for Tesla Model Y!

    Was the output for the new sub amplifier tapped from the Tesla amplifier sub out speaker output? And have you noticed time alignment issues from the subwoofer, with the added amplifier? Thanks, planning on doing the same thing.

    Thanks! Reassuring how the wheel/tire combo I relation to the offset actually looks.

    MYP winter/all-season setup 20x10 with 275/40/20

    Nice set up. Is the rear tire/wheel tucked inside the fender, hard to tell from this angle, nevertheless it looks nice. And the same question for the front. Would happen to have photos front and rear view? Thanks
