How I doubled my tire life

[munkeeboi]

I’ve been looking into these for my P85. Ive read on other forums that it can be difficult to find a shop to do the alignment. Have you experienced any difficulty with shops refusing to work on the car due to the unique design of the hardware or any other reason?
How have they held up?

getting these installed next week. Currently lowered on links and on 21" Arachnids and trying to save my tires

Unplugged Performance Adjustable Rear Camber Arms - Tesla Model S & X

Tesla Model S and Tesla Model X owners can benifit from correcting the rear camber to improve tire wear and provide a wide range of adjustment for alignment.

Why does Tesla (and other OEM's) design non adjustable camer arms or bolts? Is this still a problem with 21 models?

You must be one of the few... who didn't watch yet the latest Sandy Munro videos:

unless I blinked in the rear cradle video they didn't mention anything about adjustable camber, only toe link.

Don’t have my MS LR yet (estimated March) but did get these in the mail today!

I do and must have missed why. Enlighten me

I was just remembering about the rear Toe link adjustment @2:43
(something you could play with to improve I believe handling on curvy roads.)

But you are right, I don't record Sandy or Jordan mentioning adjustable Camber
which was the initial subject raised by @SCP85

If Goodyear will bring these to America we will solve the problem. Watch the you tube video from Goodyear boss talking about EV tires.
Confirmed, they r on the market in Europe. I cant get Goodyear USA to explain.

Interesting thread. My experience is the opposite.

The mobile service guy measured the tire tread on my 2019 MS Performance with 28000 km (17500 miles) and found 6mm on both rears and 3-4 mm on the fronts, so double the wear on the fronts compared to the rears. I wonder why the difference?

I found that hard fast turns tears the thread off the sides of front tires. Also. My car is antique, I found I have to check pressure every month because of temperature change. Pressure has to be 45 to 50 psi.
Wear rating on replacement tires means alot. My friend went thru a set in a year, he found low pressure all the time. Notice, there are a lot of variables.

$550 with the coupon.

the Goodyear tires are designed to help with the torque wear. If they actually work that will be great but the problem with excessive wear isn’t from the torque only. It’s the camber these cars come with from factory. And non adjustable camer arms or bolts is the big problem. No matter what tire is used or compound this will always happen because camber creates heat which makes it wear fast. And toe even more.

sorry may I ask where do you got the coupon?
