    Hankook iON EVO All season tires with controlled efficiency testing

    Just got the Hankook Ion EVO AS tires installed today. MY OH MY! These are AMAZING! Yes I had worn my Michelin Pilot Sport S Tires down to where my friends were suggesting it was time for new tires. But the thumping noise for the last few thousand miles coming from them was insane! Got the...

    Goodyear ElectricDrive GT Tires 235/45R18

    I’m needing new tires soon too and it’s between the Hankook Ions and the Goodyear ElectricDrives. Would love to hear the answer to your question!

    How many [lifetime] miles do you have?

    Thank you! I will pay to have them installed.

    How many [lifetime] miles do you have?

    Would you please say more about the arms? Mine were replaced just a few miles prior to the warranty expiring and they almost immediately started creaking again but not as bad. I love my 2019 LR 3 and want to keep it 10 years if possible. About 10k miles per year.

    Hankook iON EVO All season tires with controlled efficiency testing

    That’s weird! Doesn’t work for me nor can I find them on their site while searching under Hankook. Looking for 18” which I think was the link. Will use the Walmart ad and ask Discount Tire to match. I also like that Tire Rack (owned by Discount, right?) also gives freebies that Discount...

    Good Year Electadrive Tires!

    Cool! I’m not not sure about the Goodyear EV tires though. Too many bad reviews online and not enough good ones to make up for them. Waffling about what to do. The road noise is killing me.

    Good Year Electadrive Tires!

    Assuming you are a USAA member, go on their site and find the Perks button. It’s in the Advice and Services section. It takes you to a different website- click on the autos section- and it takes you to the discount. I priced it without the discount on Goodyear’s website and the USAA discount...

    Good Year Electadrive Tires!

    USAA has a 25% discount on Goodyear so I’ll be replacing mine soon on my 2019 M3LR 18” wheels. I hate my Michelins- 2nd set of tires. And I didn’t really love the originals either.

    Goodyear ElectricDrive GT Tires 235/45R18

    Oh wow!!!! Thank you!!!! I forgot about the Perks section on USAA and didn't know that Goodyear offered such a great deal. Will get these later this year.

    My 5-month review of driving a Model 3 that I have decided is not for me

    Everyone is going to have a different view and experience of owning a model 3. For me it is by far the most enjoyable and relaxing car I've ever owned. I melt into the driver's seat and love the experience of driving it, especially long distances. Mine is 2019 LR 18" wheels. The happiest...

    iPhone (2) and I'm the only driver

    Thanks- I did some digging around on my iPhone and figured it out after seeing one of my friend's Tesla app at lunch today. It's fixed now!

    iPhone (2) and I'm the only driver

    I'm the only driver of my model 3. Recently took it in for a new windshield at Safelite. Now I am seeing iPhone (2) listed on Security in the Tesla App and it's concerning me since there is only one iPhone associated with my car. I have googled this and searched this board but can't find...

    CO--> CA. Model 3 dual motor tire question

    Thanks! I lived in Colorado 8 years and only skied a few times. I find the model 3 too low to the ground to feel comfortable driving in the snow but there are many people who do it. I avoided snow tires and just drove the days it was safe to do so.

    CO--> CA. Model 3 dual motor tire question

    Oh interesting. Well I have not had them installed yet-just ordered-so I will give this more thought.

    if you have extra cash to mod Tesla model 3 SR+, what mod would you get?

    Everybody and their brother has a Tesla in my town so I bought bright blue door handle stickers on Amazon for $25 and installed them myself. BEST IDEA EVER since now I can find my car in the Tesla crowded parking lots. ;)

    CO--> CA. Model 3 dual motor tire question

    Cool. That's what I wanted to hear. The factory tires are too noisy and now that I won't be in snow, I'd prefer them.

    Love the Model 3, but the auto-dimming brights feature doesn't work

    The damn windshield wipers!!!!!!

    CO--> CA. Model 3 dual motor tire question

    2019 Model 3. Dual motor. 25,500 miles. Moving from CO to SoCal and at 25,500 miles, Discount Tires is telling me I can not rotate my tires again but need new ones. Is it ok to let go of all season tires and get the incredible Michelin Pilot Sport 4S? I have 18" wheels. I have researched...

    Tesla M3 damaged Nov 2020 still not repaired

    My car was drivable so it's why I have been so patient about it. I haven't had the need for a rental car. Also I work from home and have an e-bike. I rarely drive my car!!! Not exactly sure why I have one!

    Tesla Body Repair Center Wait Time

    So sorry to hear that. My experience was a bit of fraud. The shop never ordered the parts--I am not sure what game they were playing? I wasn't going to walk away from the $2400 I gave them from USAA. In the meantime Denver has opened a Tesla owned body shop so I am starting all over again at...

    Tesla Body Repair Center Wait Time

    I have been waiting for 5 months for a model 3 hood and windshield. Turns out the authorized Tesla repair shop lied to me and never ordered the parts. Got my money back and now starting over again at the Tesla service center--at the time of the damage, they didn't do those repairs. Now they...

    Tesla M3 damaged Nov 2020 still not repaired

    Agreed. And I will be reporting them. I'm so glad I got my money back and can start over with the Tesla service center.

    Tesla M3 damaged Nov 2020 still not repaired

    They just returned the car to me with a check for the full refund. Turns out they lied. They never ordered the parts. They were going to try and repair the hood instead of replace it and never do the windshield repair. Thank you so much for your reply. I have an appt this Friday at the...

    Tesla M3 damaged Nov 2020 still not repaired

    They are bringing the car back to me. They just admitted they don't even have the windshield to repair the car. Does it really take 5 months to get a model 3 windshield? I call BS on that.

    Tesla M3 damaged Nov 2020 still not repaired

    I need help being talked off the ledge. My model 3's hood and windshield were damaged by a large hook that flew off a semi on I-25 in Denver last November. It was immediately reported to insurance, check received and given to Tesla authorized repair shop by early December. Parts needed: new...

    TeslaCam does its job

    The dents in the hood are too deep to fix. They are replacing the hood, the windshield, and the windshield wiper arm. They are painting the front fenders to blend with the new hood. I was shaking pretty much the rest of the day. It was a really loud BANG when it hit. And I almost lost...

    $2800 total damages. Not bad....I really thought it would be more. I'll document my experience having a Tesla Model 3 repaired and start a new thread with it.

    TeslaCam does its job

    I agree--If I had been in a convertible or on a motorcycle, I could have been killed. I was not behind him. I was 2 lanes over about to exit. 15 seconds sooner or later, I wouldn't have been hit. It's highly irresponsible and dangerous that the load wasn't properly secured. But we all see...

    TeslaCam does its job

    Thanks for all the advice and replies. USAA said unless someone died or had major medical damage, they would not pursue the semi. I looked at earlier video from a mile back and it appears there were other items coming off the back--I'm guessing I wasn't the only one hit. I am happy the hook...

    TeslaCam does its job

    Driving south on I-25 near downtown Denver today. Pretty sure this hook comes off the large truck, bounces under the van and hits me. The truck has the same type of tie downs. Hood and windshield have lots of damage. And by lots, I mean lots o' dollars. No comments about the dirt on my car...

    Back up camera question

    They sent out a mobile repair guy and he was unaware of the change in software and had no solution. I believe it was part of the software update at the time. I got used to it and it's the same size still--I think-- it never went back to how large a screen it used to fill.

    I still don't have V10. Whatever. I tired of checking phone, checking car, switching WiFi, soft restart. Car gets serviced at end of October, they can sort it out then.

    Post Something You Love About Your Tesla!

    1- How quiet it is 2- Being able to "get around people" in traffic easily 3- Setting it on AP while in stop and go traffic on the freeway and not worry about rear ending someone 4- It has already saved me from 2 accidents with the warning it gives

    Tesla V10 software update rollout: post here if you are still waiting

    Same here. And in Boulder. And based on the date we both joined this group, I am guessing our cars were received about the same time. The chat rep told me that we would have it within a week.

    In a way I am ok with being one of the last ones if it gives them a chance to get the bugs out.
