    FS:20"Silver Performance 3 wheels and tires

    Less than 100 miles on the tires and I have a extra tire with less than 1k miles that I will include with sale. 2K seems to be the going rate. I am in the Saint Louis Area. TPMS included.

    Supercharger - Fort Worth, TX

    Drove down from St Louis for a race in Mineral Wells this weekend. Booked a hotel close to this charger with no idea it was down. All public J1772 chargers in this area are broken and no destination chargers near. Was lucky to find a charger in apartment garage that they let me use. What is...

    P3D+ Autocross

  10. papadonutman

    Took my P3D+ autocrossing. Here's what happened:

    265 stones feel very different from the stock 235. I don't use my PS4S set up due to the range issues with that set up. I have some of the MX tires for travel. The 4S tires just collect dust in my basement.

    Looking for options on dampers

    In SCCA street class you are not allowed to change the springs, the rear is a simple shock change. The front, being a strut, requires the spring to be mounted on your new shock. SCCA requires that the mounting position be exactly the same. This then requires a custom mount on the new shock to...

    Looking for options on dampers

    I ordered a set of the sport coil overs from MPP and they are making me a mount to use with the stock springs that will be compliant with the SCCA rules in Street class. It will also have the mount so I can run there springs when I am done with autocross this season.

    Took my P3D+ autocrossing. Here's what happened:

    #25733 Class Tesla Model 3 AWD Performance Per the SAC, add the following listing to Appendix A: BS Tesla Model 3 (AWD Performance)(2018) I guess we made them nervous so they moved the Performance to BS from DS.

    Took my P3D+ autocrossing. Here's what happened:

    If anyone has ordered or planning to get wheels for the purpose of SCCA autocross, the stated offset of the 20" performance wheels is +40 however the wheel itself is stamped +35(at least mine are). SCCA allows +/- 7mm from factory offset. If anyone else has the sports off for the winter could...

    Disappointing Range in P3D. Is this normal?

    I got the exact same numbers as you did on my P3+. Think we probably drive the same. It is 100% the tires, I got a set of 19" wheels and put the Michelin MXM4 tires at 235/40/19 on. These are my winter/roadtrip tires. Heat off, speed under 68 and it will do better then estimated range with this...

    P3 Autocross

    If anyone here is planning to autocross under the SCCA stock class rules next year please reach out to me. I would like to compare set up notes and try to make this car as competitive as possible.

    P3D+ compatible wheels

    The MXM4 tires have a lower roll resistance than the 4S tires, you give up some grip for mileage as well as being able to drive in cold weather.

    P3D+ compatible wheels

    To my knowledge my MXM4 tires do not have the foam lining, I was not aware that they made them with the lining. My S with the Goodyear Tires do have the foam lining. I looked on tirerack and could not find a LRR spec for the Michelin.

    P3D+ compatible wheels

    I finally got the MXM4 tires on the car and was able to do some distance runs, went from 345 on the 4S tires to 300wh/mi on the MXM4. Both sets were at 45psi. Big difference in tire noise as well, very quiet on the MX. Both sets of tires are 235. There is a big jump when you go from 65 to 75...

    Miles driven vs miles used on P3D+

    I finally got the MXM4 tires on the car and was able to do some distance runs, went from 345 on the 4S tires to 250wh/mi on the MXM4. Both sets were at 45psi. Big difference in tire noise as well, very quiet on the MX. Both sets of tires are 235.

    P3D+ compatible wheels

    EV Tuning were very helpful. They shipped the wheels with a ring and stayed in touch with me as we worked through the hub issue. If you get these wheels you need to get lug nuts, the stock ones will work but they are an extremely tight fit.

    Miles driven vs miles used on P3D+

    Hmm..Took my P3D+ on its first road trip last weekend and was getting 345 Wh/mile going 75 on autopilot. Turned climate off to see if it would help, did not really improve. My S100D runs in the upper 200 range under the same conditions. It has air suspension so it lowers at highway speeds and is...

    P3 Autocross

    Sorry, 4s. I have been told you can get some camber, still looking into it. I ran the pressures at 45 to try and lessen the roll and avoid to much abuse to the edges. All and all not bad edge wear considering. I will try and get a picture up.

    P3 Autocross

    It is a P3+ so I was running on the Cup tires, that being said, the people in front of me were running on 200 tread wear proper autocross tires. There were some good drivers and very well prepared cars at this event. The video was one of my earlier slower runs, kept forgetting to turn on camera...

    Aftermarket Wheels on Model 3

    Does anyone know for certain that any 19" wheel will fit on the p3+ (with the upgraded front brakes). I tried to order the Forgestar CF10 (19"x8.5" with +40 offset) and was told by a Forgestar dealer that they would not make the wheels until they knew they would fit. I have asked on other...

    Aftermarket Wheels on Model 3

    My wheel guy asked me this question. "Maybe I can’t see it or must missed it. But I see no measurement of how far the front of the caliper sticks out past the wheel mounting surface of the rotor. I also don’t see a measurement of how far radially the caliper protrudes from the axle center...

    M3 performance with 19" sport wheels?

    I will call and ask but I went ahead and ordered these. TSW Tesla Model 3 19" Nurburgring Wheels with 235/40R19 Michelin Primacy MXM4 Tires. I guess I will just sell the 20" wheels and tires that come with the car, I'm sure someone will want them.

    M3 performance with 19" sport wheels?

    I am in the same boat, I ordered the p and want everything that comes with it minus the 20" wheels and pilot tires. There are no good options for tires on the 20" wheel, at least not to autocross with. People that order the 20" wheels should be aware that the summer tires are just that, you...
