After being burned on my first appointment in early October (last minute cancel because the winter wheels hadn't shown up) I started messaging service to confirm the wheels were there before showing up for my appointment. I live 300 miles north of the service center so I wasn't going to make...

I really wish Tesla would sell the rest of the kit without the wheel. I already have two sets of wheels (original + winter) so I don't need a 9th wheel/tire combination. The cover with built in tie down straps and bottle jack/lug wrench with case that nicely fits in the wheel look pretty...

The Cybertruck owner's manual has a section on "Jacking and LIfting". There are separate locations for the jack stands (further from each wheel). So, yes, the idea is you can lift one corner using the lift point, set it down on a stand using the jack stand point, and move the jack to another...

I'm pretty sure that one is an 800-1000V charger. Oddly enough, it was down on my way out to the North Shore (card reader couldn't communicate with the network) so I had to use a nearby 50KW CCS charger instead. On the way back home a few days later it was working and I did see a spike of...

What's the approximate range loss when this is installed and empty? It looks fairly aerodynamic. One thing I've been thinking about is how to carry a spare tire if the vault is full and this could be an interesting option. Looks cool, too :)

As mentioned earlier, there are 3rd party options now (A2Z is linked above, Hanshow posted about their version late last week). In addition, you can use an EVJect adapter to make your existing CCS adapter work. It isn't as convenient as a one piece adapter, but may be cheaper if you can find a...

I have one of these on order as well (been using the EVJect adapter in the meantime since I already had a Tesla CCS adapter from my Model Y). I got an email from them Tuesday with an update. Apparently there was a cosmetic manufacturing defect with their first batch. The next batch is on the...

Exactly - there are still gaps in the Supercharger network with CCS alternatives even if they're not necessarily as fast. For example, I towed my camper east across northern MN to camp on the north shore of Lake Superior a few weeks ago. While I could have made it there on Superchargers alone...

Downloading now too! From a cafe on the north shore of Lake Superior in Minnesota …

The last I heard they were still trying to get into production this year. They have an account on substack where they post updates once a month or so (I think you have to be a reservation holder to gain access). There’s no indication they are looking to redesign anything to accommodate the...

Now we just need to find a Cybertruck owner pulling a Wolly Bear to get the full set :)

Just checking in as I had my appointment on Thursday to have my winter wheel package installed. Unfortunately, the wheels hadn't shown up yet :(. Rather annoying as I live almost 300 miles from the nearest US service center so it's not like I can just pop back in whenever. I did still have...

As another data point, I've towed my Taxa Mantis a couple of times now and would estimate I'm somewhere in the 120-140 mile range with my dual motor CT. This would be at full highway speeds (e.g., 70mph) over mostly flat ground towing across the northern half of MN. Slowing down to 55-60 mph...

I presume they'll bolt on the new ones and put my existing wheels in the bed for me to take home. I agree with you - I'll be quite annoyed with them if they expect to store my current wheels and force me to come back when I need to swap again in the spring. I presume we'll know for sure soon...

See link below to an article by TireRack explaining what the three peak stamp means (in particular the last point noting they cannot match dedicated snow tires). https://www.tirerack.com/upgrade-garage/what-is-the-threepeak-mountain-snowflake-symbol I don't have a link to an actual...

They don't ship these to your home - they get shipped to a Tesla service center of your choice and you have to make an appointment for installation. Kind of annoying as I'm perfectly capable of swapping my own wheels and I live almost 300 miles north of the nearest US service center (I suppose...

I’ve taken mine through my local auto wash many times without issue. It’s pretty new though (built about a year ago) and has foam paddles instead of the older style bristles on the rollers that scrub the vehicle.

The only option that I know of (so far) is the normal Tesla CCS -> NACS adapter plus and EVject adapter to be able to clear the fender. This isn’t officially supported, of course, but several on here have stated It works (I just got my EVject adapter, but haven’t tried it yet). A2Z had a...

Same, 100%

I've been eyeing these as well. My big concern is the tire would block the rear view camera.
