With all this craziness in the world I have not had a chance to give this machine a proper wash and photo shoot, but in the mean time here is a driveway shot of my 2020 LR+ with 22x9 and 22v10.5 Forgestar F14's wrapped in Conti DWS-06 255/30 - 295/25 (Thanks to jason@getyourwheels) Tint, chrome delete, lowering links and some carbon fiber to finish it off...

Looks fantastic!
  1. What height is your car set to when driving?
  2. What height is the car in the shot above?
  3. Any rubbing at all? The rear tires seem awfully close to the fender.

Wow, that fitment is nailed.

Is the car lowered with links ?

The height is set to Always Low and no rubbing, with the exception of reverse with wheel turned. I had this issue with my 2013 P85 and had it fixed with a caster adjustment. It is not that bad so that can wait until post-covid

Picture is in Low mode and there is plenty of room in the rear. I am going to lower the car another inch so that I can drive in regular mode and then it will be a bit lower in low mode.

Below is my P85 with same size wheels and tires. No rubbing here at all when aligned correctly:

I had my old car (the 2013 P85 my wife now drives) professionally dechromed. I decided to save some money and use the TeslaBros Dechrome kit and attempt it myself. I am not a patient person, but it came out decent. Still a few minor chrome areas like the fender cameras that I am debating whether to do, but I did all the major areas of chrome. I've always preferred the black to the chrome on a white car.

I went with the matte carbon fiber overlays from RMP Tesla (no affiliation) for my turn signal covers and mirror caps. It matches the caron fiber rear spoiler perfectly and rounds out the chrome delete!

Recently had the P85+ tinted with Autobahn Hüper Optik dual layer nano-ceramic.

99% UV / 93% infrared heat rejection on the windshield and 99%UV / 68% infrared on all the other windows. Feels much cooler in the car now :)
