Imagine wrapping with that 3m psychedelic film and getting both front and rear Tesla’s center emblem in that same logo’s red❣️🤯

frequent hard acceleration really eats the rear tires, once you do less of that the tires on a plaid will last very long

I really wish Tesla would let customers retro fit the retractable rear spoiler.

That black with the upgraded wheels and tints looks incredible. So sleek and sinister. I've got a 2023 Model X Plaid with 2,200 miles and the 20" wheels. Can I get a link for those camber arms you mentioned? Thank you.

I went with the black nickle plated multi adjustable arms because I installed them myself. The little gauge helped me dial in initial camber alignment before I went to the alignment shop.

It’s just tint not “tints”

Would you mind posting a link to your mud flaps? They look great

@MelvinSNash I had the mudflaps from Tesla and they were thin floppy garbage flaps. Also only available for the front no factory rear flaps. Purchased these from Amazon they’re made by Basenor.

A camber of 0 degrees on the rear is going to be a little dangerous. You should shoot for -1 and it will still have even tire wear vs the factory -2.4.

@toothfixer 4 ай бұрын

I should clarify I say zero but camber is actually set to -0.5 to -0.65 per N2itive alignment specs for the adjustable arms. I printed out the specs and handed it to the alignment guy.

If you live in NorCal where did you get your camber arms installed?

@toothfixer 4 ай бұрын

I have a Bendpak 2 post lift in my garage at home so I installed them myself. Takes about 20 minutes per side but you have to take your time measuring fixed reference points because you need to drive to the alignment shop with a “eyeballed” alignment. I measured fairly accurately the alignment guy said camber was almost spot on but changing camber affected toe and I had way too much toe in.

New tyres after 13.000 miles? That's crazy, I replaced my car's tyres after 37.000 miles. LOL

Apples and oranges my friend. Does your car have over 1k HP and huge Torque?

@@badtoro No, you're right, my car is right-sized with enough torque & horsepower to be among the fastest on the roads and to last the distance. Who needs 1000HP anyway? That's ridiculous.

Treadwear ratings can only be compared across the same branded tires. A Michelin 400 treadwear is compared to a baseline Michelin tire and cannot be directly compared to say a Continental 400 treadwear. They are not the same as they compare against their OWN branded baseline tire. You'll likely get better life out of the Michelin's still though.
