Hi,
Been lurking on this forum for a while but ready to take delivery this December especially since I don't quality for the tax credit anyways next year. One way to get to the front of the line seems to switch to the performance model. Currently have a red model y with 19in tires and white interior on order. Can anyone share their experiences with the Model Y Performance along two dimensions:
1. How is the ride quality? I have a BMW 3 series I'm replacing as a reference point. Should I expect it better or worse? However, I test drove the MYP recently on a well maintained stretch of surface streets + highway, it didn't feel too bad or too different from a MYLR. My experience in riding in other people's Teslas wasn't all that great. Am I missing something / do I have low standards?
2. Tires - are they for sure summer tires? If so, how will they perform in the rain? Are there any benefits to 21in tires besides the looks? Costco seems to stock 21in all seasons for the Model Y -are they a must replace?
I expect to spend most of my time driving between 40 mph to 80mph and the range is plentiful enough in either cases.
Appreciate any thoughts on this.
