    Newbie problems with my 21 inch wheels

    I tried to purchase tires from them for my project to upsize to the widest wheel tire combination possible for the Air. They wouldn’t sell them to me (liability reasons?) because they were “extremely” outside of manufacturers specifications. I ended up purchasing mine from Americas Tire.

    Newbie problems with my 21 inch wheels

    Costco also has a 5 year warranty program. I’d certainly consider them as well knowing how great they are with customer satisfaction.

    Newbie problems with my 21 inch wheels

    They will warranty any tire after they inspect them first to see if it meets their guidelines for the warranty. There is also no reason to stay with the factory tires either. You can switch brands to something comparable as well as change size. If I wanted to stay with my factory wheels, I’d...

    Need advice on Demos

    If the price points are similar, I prefer the GT over the touring since I’m always the one driving my car. A passenger would likely prefer the touring because of the added footwell depth.

    21 inch Front v/s Rear tire wear

    The are many factors that can affect tire wear. Just by being a staggered configuration on a 50/50 weight distribution car will contribute to the front tires wearing faster. The report didn’t mention abnormal tire wear so as long as the tire wear is not caused by alignment issues, this seems...

    I unfortunately had to put the stock wheels back on due to occasional rubbing at full suspension travel. Just that little bit of poking as pictured earlier is enough to really wake you up when going over a dip on the freeway, especially since the cat is already so quiet. The rubbing occurs at a...

    Aftermarket Wheel Swap?

    The front fender liner can be tweaked to get the clearance needed. The back with 295 tires as found on the Tesla will rub for sure. There is no camber adjustment on the rear of the Air to help either.

    Aftermarket Wheel Swap?

    The picture in the previous post is a 265 tire on a Tesla wheel mounted to the front of an Air GT. We didn’t see any caliper clearance problems but fender liner clearance was pretty tight.

    Aftermarket Wheel Swap?

    The 295 in the rear will poke out and rub if the standard alignment specs are followed. The 265 up front will be very close and will likely require the fender liner to be tighter against the wheel well.

    Wheels ordered ...

    Some lessons learned ... a) front set up is at the limit because right side tire rubs the fender liner slightly at one location .. and only while backing up. I'm pretty sure I can fix that by making sure the right fender liner is snug against the wheel well. b) The rears will rub slightly...

    Towing properly/owner's manual and mistakes?

    As of v 2.3.10, tow truck mode is not available. I learned this after trying to figure out the best way to keep my car in neutral and keep the shock & tilt notification / alarm off.
