    He pitches what he gets paid to pitch. The two cars are completely different in many ways.

    Does anyone know if the Center would be willing to remove the Aero inserts? The Gemini wheels on the Y don't usually get shipped with the inserts but it seems that these come on the wheel. I figured I'd ask to see if anyone has asked Tesla It would be nice if they'd de-badge it too while...

    I ordered Rally Armor Mud Flaps. Be careful with molded style because they can wear the paint off. For mats, I am waiting for the TuxMat versions to come out. They are expected this month.

    Absolutely! A good group can be both helpful and supportive. I miss the old Mercedes forums for that. We even had local meetings quite often

    I switched in 2021 and have never looked back. Teslas no longer give an option to turn it off. I barely touch my brake pedal. Even on spirited driving, I use it to shift the weight to the front. But it is a personal thing.

    I can't speak for the new 3, but I have had a 21 and 23 MP3. I run 265/30/20 on them. I ran it with neutral TOE and got very consistent tire wear. TOE out wears the inner edges. But slight negative camber shouldn't. But I only get 20k miles from a set of summer tires. I have heard of others...

    Toe OUT for better turn in. Not for braking

    A degree or so of negative camber is preferred, in my opinion. I actually like -1.5. Are you wanting it to be straight?

    TOE (in this case) is about the direction that the front wheels are aimed. Toe POSITIVE = \ / Toe NEGATIVE = / \ Toe NEUTRAL = | |

    I do it EVERY TIME. If not you'll get 10k miles. Plus I prefer a free wheel although these cars have heavy steering

    They issue the VIN to you when it is dispatching from the factory. I'm in San Diego so it's usually about 3-5 days before you take delivery. In AZ I guess it's a little longer. I got VIN Thursday and I'm scheduled to pickup Monday

    Sorry. I wasn't trying to argue and i didn't think you were. I just came across as a dick. Sorry. This is a "hot" topic in the modding community. There isn't much to mod on Teslas, so I stay mellow. But I used to love to tinker and I got burned many times.

    I have 30 years of real life experience in California. They don't need to prove anything. When bushings, shocks, struts etc go out and you have aftermarket springs, they can and will void it. By they, I mean EVERY brand. With ICE cars, ECU tunes are big. They can void the ENTIRE warranty, again...

    they don't have "to prove that the modification caused the issue in order to deny the warranty claim"; they can implicate, just like in your example where the suspension COULD be voided if you lowered it.
