You got me thinking about that trunk space when the third row is down and how things can fly forward when braking. Not sure if you're up to the idea of getting a trunk organizer and hook it down to create a barrier.
Do you know you can make the trunk one step lower, so it makes it bigger. I took the left little top and i storage my laptop and backpack there as i do in my model s. The trunk has a lot of configuration without buying any other storage organizer. Or putting seats down
Just changed the tires on our 2022 X Plaid and I decided not to go continetals and wanted to try the new brand ERange EV Sailun XL. Let's see if we can get 15k on them.
I replaced with Michelin pilot sport all season and they have a treadwear rating of 500 vs 240 for the continentals. Quiet and comfortable so I don’t understand the need for Tesla specific tires with the foam core.
@@ivegoneplaidcrawl under your car with a flashlight and closely inspect the inner sidewalls. I’d imagine they’re close to gone never trust the wear bars on a Model X or Model S
@@toothfixer I have some wear on the inside of the rear tires. However, since I installed washers to space out camber arms, the wear pattern has improved.
@@ivegoneplaidhow thick are the washers? IIRC I had to adjust the arms 1/2” to get most of the camber out prior to getting it aligned and that created a lot of toe in.
Switched my tires within the first month of getting my model 3 performance the low profile tires were rough…not a lot of durability. Went with all season tires much better!
I have the SCORPION ZERO ALL SEASON they have a treadler rating of 500, so far so good for me, I have 27K on my 2023 Model X and still have maybe another 1 years left maybe another 10-15K left
A lot of variables. I had Michelin PS2s on my Porsche Turbo with treadwear rating of 240 and the rears lasted 12k miles with no excessive camber. I replaced them with Pzero Rossos and I got 6k miles even though treadwear rating was same at 240. The model X and S are different animals. They have negative camber at med ride height. On the highway the Model X defaults to "low" ride height and the model S defaults to "very low". As the car drops ride height, neg camber increases a lot so the net effect is not that the tires wear to the wear bars at 6-8k miles.... instead the inner sidewall wears down to the cords at 6-8k miles. On my Model X Plaid I installed adjustable camber arms so I am running zero camber right now. The tires are wearing dead even so only issue is the car's weight and soft tires with 240 treadwear rating. I have 8k miles and still going strong. I think I can squeeze out 10k miles till I hit the wear bars. My 2021 Refreshed Model S had Michelin PS2 with similar treadwear rating. I racked up 50k miles on it and went through 5 sets of tires. Got stranded on the side of the road with blown out inner sidewalls twice. The Model S and Model X share the same rear suspension arms, the camber arms are interchangeable. I installed adjustable camber arms on that car as well and it helped a lot.
Yes all Model X and S have that issue because they share the same rear suspension with fixed camber arms. Problem is worse when the cars lower ride height at highway speeds. I installed N2itive adjustable rear camber arms on the X and my previous refreshed model S... problem solved
I just bought my son a dual motor model Y and can say it’s a great car but no comparison to the X. The X is infinitely more comfortable because of the air suspension.
Wheel choice affects range but my display shows 305 at 100% and approx 270 at 90% SOC but if you’ve owned a Tesla you probably know that’s not real world range. Plan on getting 70% of displayed range. Also of all the Teslas I’ve owned this is the least efficient by far. Big heavy car with 22s so understandable. My refreshed model S with 21s had a range of 345 @ 100% SOC and approx 307 @ 90% SOC.
