I am in the Boston area and picked up my 2022 Model S in August. Tesla completely screwed me over by giving me Summer Tires while, if you order a new Model S with 21" Arachnid Wheels (My option) today, it states it comes with "All Season Tires". Tesla is unwilling to swap and is giving me the runaround without clear answers. Meanwhile, my car will be un-drivable in the next few weeks as summer tires won't work well below 40F.
Here is my configuration
What I am looking to see if anybody has any experience with moving from staggered to squared on this model.
Would a move to 265/35R21 on all 4 wheels have any impact on the AWD specifically?
FYI: Since I took delivery of my vehicle in August (12 weeks ago), it has been back at Tesla 3 times, and spent 4 weeks with them for various quality issues including "Passenger safety harness failure" that led to the replacement of the part that was back-ordered. It also includes a repaint of the rear right door and panel. Dropped the car over again yesterday for 3 more weeks to redo the horrible paint job they did the last time and of course they did not have the Paint Protection Film (also backordered).
Almost considering invoking the Massachusetts Lemon Law. What a disaster.
Any help on the Tire question would be helpful.
