    Wheel Spacers installed with 19” Aero Wheels

    Correct … thread engagement is important so the only time the factory studs can be used to secure both spacer and wheel is if the spacer is thin enough. A 20mm spacer is almost an inch thick so he’s probably using spacers similar to the ones you have linked. Also just fyi the backs of the...

    Wheel Spacers installed with 19” Aero Wheels

    I was just noting how the camber doesn’t change much on a lowered Air as it does on most ICE cars. On a side note … every car I’ve ever owned since the age of 16 have been lowered. I’m still on the fence about my GT though. The idea for lowering a car is to reduce drag and lower the CG for...

    Wheel Spacers installed with 19” Aero Wheels

    In regards to alignment being needed when adding spacers … It is not because the suspension geometry remains the same before and after adding spacers. The geometry will however change if the car is lowered. Mostly added camber. Adding or reducing tire width also doesn’t change the suspensions...

    Should I order 5 or 7 seats?

    Are you planning to carry a floor jack with your spare? If so, a floor jack might not work very well on rough roads either so maybe think twice about carrying a spare? For me, the same rationale holds true about not having a spare in my Air. If I get a flat, I’m already going to be late to my...

    Miles/Kwh

    These hypermiling threads will start fading away in time ... after all, I don't really see any for the ICE versions of BMW, Porsche or MBZ. ;) If anything, we should be paying more attention to range when the battery is charged to 100%.

    Wheels ordered ...

    I made 2 trips between Southern CA and Las Vegas. Once using the factory AeroSport wheels and tires (without inserts) and another trip the following month using the new wheels and tries. The battery charged to exactly 411 miles at 100% for each trip. The resulting mi/kWh for both trips were...

    Wheels ordered ...

    Sorry ... I didn't realize there were questions posted here. Here is a spreadsheet I created to help determine specs ... I would actually caution against using my configuration (in blue above) because I think the fitment could have been a little better ... there was still some minor...

    What topic are you most interested in for our next AMA?

    Sentry / security mode would be nice. I would think a valet mode would be easy to implement?

    Arizona may be ending EV access to the HOV lanes

    Same is true for California. I thought it was a state thing. I didn’t realize it was at the federal level.

    Greetings fellow socal owners

    Lucid will have access to Tesla supercharger network later this year so you won’t miss it for very long. I also agree with you about enjoying a car that I can drive.

    Anyone know of bidirectional charging status?

    I’m guessing they want to address this scenario somehow even though highly unlikely … get free fast charging at EA then bring the power back home or someplace else?
