Thanks for that. How does the car ride compared to factory height? is it bouncy at all?

After about 1000 miles on the AS 3+ my average Wh/mi is 265, about a 15% hit from the MXM4s, both @ 47 PSI. And I still notice the increased noise.
Holy crap, I can’t imagine the road noise @ 47 psi! 42 psi is recommended and I usually lower it a bit to around 40 because I find the road noise and ride quality to be a bit harsh already.

Thanks for posting your results. I was looking at the Michelin Crossclimate+ as well. If anyone has any experience with the crossclimate. I would like to hear about it. I might just buy another set of mxm4's
My friend bought the same tires and pretty much said the same thing. I'm not sure I can recommend them. She did say they are better in the rain, but she drives like a crazy person.
Wow, that's a huge reduction in efficiency! After about 4000 miles on DWS06, my Wh/mi went from 233 on MXM4s to ~241, which I'm pretty happy about. I'm also satisfied with the improvement in handling, cornering, and braking performance. They're louder than the MXM4s though, which I'm not happy about. If nothing better comes out in 2 yrs, I'll probably try the Pirelli PZ A/S+ next time.

Just installed some ART-171 Replika's on my SR+, loving the look (always been a fan of Turbines), and they have way more clearance in the barrel to fit the Performance brakes I'm going to retrofit in soon. Highly recommend these rims to any Canadians, only about $670 CAD to my door with taxes and everything (that's like $450 USD at this point, haha). CanadaWheels.ca is the place to go!

Wrote up details of my CrossClimate+ 18” tires experience here: https://TinkerTry.com/crossclimate-plus-for-tesla-model-3-for-better-performance-and-curb-rash-avoidance
Seems like the range hit is a bit less as the weather warms, maybe 5%.

ADV.1’s new Flowspec wheels just came out, and we install them on our Model 3! Really like their take on the traditional 10 spoke design, since it’s such a tried and true look. Weight savings over OEM wheels is always a plus, while still looking better and fitting better than OEM. This is one of those wheels where if you decide to do a bright color, you WON’T be disappointed considering how much detail the wheel has.

We begin a new Tesla Model 3 project! Novitec lowering springs and new Vorsteiner VFF-109 wheels in 21's going on today. We still have several more cosmetic/protective mods lined up for this later, so stay tuned. We also take a quick look at the Vorsteiner Volta side skirts on a black Model 3.

20" Vossen HF-5 in Matte Gunmetal just installed by Tag. EVS hooked me up with these. 10.5 in front and 9.5 in back. Also installed Unplugged performance dual rate lowering springs. The wider wheels in the back make the car look so much more aggressive.

Some more visual ideas for you, especially 3 owners. Quickest way to make your Tesla look sportier is add a chrome delete and dark color wheels. Here's a 3 with a chrome delete and Vorsteiner wheels to give you an idea how just these 2 things alone can change the way your car looks.
Midnight silver metallic with matte PPF right? I don’t think they make colored PPF?
