Bump

Fits very well to the front windshield and rolls up for storage. Should fit Model S years 2016+. $20, local pickup near Portland, OR.

Sold! Thanks, @mggurley!

PM sent.

Sorry, alerts didn't show for some reason. Still available.

Have you seen any reports of people mounting pre-Plaid 19's onto the Plaid? I think most of us know that the bolt pattern and hub bore are identical, but the thing that hasn't been clear is if the older 19's will clear the brakes and suspension (without using spacers).

Selling my winter wheels (set of 4) that will fit pre-Plaid (2012-2021) Model S. - wheels are the 19" Tempest with Aero wheel covers - tires are 245/45/19 Vredestein Quatrac Pro (3 peak snowflake, all weather rated snow tire) - no curb rash Tires have less than 2000 miles and work great in...

Like some others have said, it depends if you want to pay for the “insurance” of buying a spare. I hadn’t had a flat tire in over a decade but last year while on a road trip, my TPMS alert went off and my tire pressure rapidly dropped from the 40s to zero in less than 30 seconds at freeway...

That’s nuts. I know people have deep pockets but I can’t believe they are willing to blow nearly $50k

Where did you see that and how do you know it actually sold?

Ahh, my bad!

I’m confused. Tesla currently lists the MX Plaid starting at $119,990. 6 seats is a $6500 option. Paint can be $1500-2500 depending on color. Interior other than black is $2000. What numbers are you looking at?

A 6 seater?

Hm, I guess that works for some but I wouldn’t trust anyone with $100k+ without getting a title at the time of the transaction. That’s just me though.

Ok, maybe you don’t need the title if there is a loan on the car, but if he bought cash, how do you transfer ownership without a title (since it can take 2-3 months to get a title after purchasing)?

How are you going to sell it without the title?

I’d be careful with that statement because we should really differentiate between the 2 types of winter tires. ”Performance winter” tires will definitely do better than all seasons in the cold/wet scenario, but those classified as “studless snow/ice” winter tires actually do worse in cold/wet...

The Michelin will most likely have better winter traction. They’ll actually be better than the Conti’s in any condition since they are a UHP AS tire. The Conti’s are ”grand touring AS” tires so they are definitely not going to grip as well but may have better rolling resistance. In regards...

For the OEM 19” wheels, there are the Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4, which is a Ultra High Performance All Season tire. This would suffice in places that get occasional snow in the winter. Available at Tire Rack...

Is there any reason you couldn’t try some spacers to help clear the shield?

I was looking for the recent thread that referred to vibration under full throttle for the Plaid and realized that was your thread. If the half shafts are already having issues with this whole ~40mph vibration issue, I would be strongly concerned that they haven’t truly fixed the underlying...

Wait, so you have to drive at normal height to have less vibration at ~40mph? But if you floor it from a standstill, the axles will get destroyed unless you’re on low...Tesla seriously needs a complete redesign of the front end.

SOLD

Hey all, I downgraded to 19s and am selling off this set of tires. They have less than 3k miles and nearly all tread left. I measured them brand new and with my tread depth gauge they had about 8/32” tread. Currently, they all still have 7-8/32” tread. There is no damage and there have been...

Vredestein Quatrac Pro 245/35R21 - first all season tire for 21 in rims

Thanks for checking. When was the Ceramic Pro refreshed - this year? Last year? And is the extended warranty transferable?

What’s the rated miles at 90% charge?

Hi all, I’m trying to figure out what the annual depreciation is on the MX. Has anyone with a 2018 P100D or 2019 Performance received a trade in value on Tesla’s website recently (after the recent price drop)? Or is anyone willing to submit a request and PM me what value they get? I know...

Ah, that makes sense. I missed the part about the separate cable and thought I could just plug into the OBDII port. Thank you!

Hi, I’m new to using TM-Spy and am having issues connecting. I am using the VEEPEAK BT adapter and it connects but then gets stuck on yellow. It keeps cycling through ELM 11-13 over and over and never turns green. Any thoughts? Thanks

No problem. I’d say that they’re definitely worth the money so far given how well priced they are. My hope is that they are slightly better than all seasons in the snow, but I don’t expect them to be as good as true snow tires.

I've had these tires for a few weeks now though I haven't been driving a ton. I had the MPSS with acoustic foam on prior to getting these tires. Overall, the sidewall is softer which means that the ride isn't as harsh over bumps and road imperfections which is nice. But this also means that...

Good to hear your feedback. And yes, the inability to rotate the wheels/tires is a given.

I tried to search on this and couldn’t find a definitive answer. Is there a technical reason one couldn’t run 245/35/21 tires all around on staggered 21s? The front wheels are 8.5” wide and the rears are 9” wide. Most of the 245 width tires on Tire Rack have a rim width range of 8-9.5”...

They removed it from a bunch of old, used cars which freed up usage for their new cars

There are several reports of the AC failing on forums and the repair is more than $3k if it’s out of warranty. Apparently it’s more likely the DC to DC converter, but still, it’s clear that Tesla’s usage of AC (cabin overheat protection, frequent cycling) causes premature wear and tear. Air...

We have 2 kids and I’m not always picking up the one that goes in the seat behind me. I would have thought the compressor is continuously running if the temp outside is anywhere above 70-75 degrees given solar gain and the fact that it feels like it’s continuously pumping out cool air. I...

I wasn’t sure how to search for this, but when I initially open a rear door to put a child in the back seat, the car and AC turns on. However, when I close the door, everything turns off. Then once I open the driver’s door, everything turns on again. I find this behavior annoying and also I...

Software. There have been similar complaints over the past few weeks for both ludicrous and FSD not being activated despite being paid for. Tesla just has to click a checkbox somewhere in their computer and it will activate on your end. But as someone mentioned, it may take hours of phone...

Here an inventory Raven. It clearly says pay-as-you-go supercharging. 2019 Model S | Tesla

Wow, you’d give up free ludicrous for the refresh? Would you just get another 100D then?

Do you have any comment on the increased range in that article? Seems unlikely they’d switch cells based on everything I’ve read so far.

Anyone have any clue when this ends?

If you remove EAP ($5k) and FSD ($3k), do you know how much it is to add each one individually after delivery for 2018 models?

Did they remove the 21s for you?

Hi everyone, I tried to search but could only find threads that discuss insurance prices. I wanted to start a thread about people’s experience in regards to actual insurance claims with their Tesla (not other car brands). Which insurer did you have? Was it a good or bad experience? I don’t...

Different battery as well? I can’t believe they are doing the Raven refresh and another major update in one year.

The recently updated Model S/X with the permenant magnet front motor as well as the updated suspension.

Missed that, thanks for pointing that out.
