Damn, it looks SO much better with those wheels!

Without the centre caps, the car lowered and the spacers, I actually don't mind the stock wheels..

The stock wheels are so much better, the blue ones belong on a Nissan Altima that cuts you off in traffic and a color change won't fix that.

Matty! Get rid of that janky looking bodykit, punt in the trash, tint the windows and get the alignment done- that's it! Your nerd car does not need anything else.

I actually think it looks pretty legit on those stock wheels with the spacers. I thought it looked good with the body kit.

We appreciate your efforts, but a simple set of LM's in 19" would've done the trick. I don't get the fascination with Vossen wheels, when you have BBS Forged Japan or Rays Volk Racing, most Vossen wheels I see are ugly.

My son the Tesla Nerd, sez you can run the tire pressures at whatever you want. You have to tell the car to 'Re-Learn' the new setting(s). Wheel Transponders are BlueTooth.

The 1.5 is the “pitch” of the metric thread. 1.5 mm from thread to thread. Imperial threads are measured threads per inch.

The problem with those body kits is they hang lower. I don't like the look but that's taste. I've owned two model 3 performance vehicles. With mine, I lowered the first car with custom offset wheels that are staggered. I think the car looks super clean with the factory plastics and just needs to be lowered with a different offset wheel. The bodykits take away from the Tesla to me and make it look cheap.

Get a camber gauge! They are easy to use. A digital angle finder works fine to !

Rear spoiler and side skirts is all it needs. Other than a completely different front bumper.

Check out the "Tesla 3 Ikon front bumper lip spoiler cf cf". Looks like it should match the trunk spoiler well

Look into ikon or maxton design. You might like the lip they offer.

Unplugged Performance has a nice front bumper for the model 3

OE Sidewall so small, must ride rough. Are tires stretched? 8” wide wheel with 235’s? Looked up 8.5”. Need 245 width tire. Also add sidewall if diameter does not increase a lot.

yeah I have stock 20s and bent a stock tesla wheel. I moved to an aftermarket 19 for street and 18 for track

yeah I agree that blue is a no.

I much prefer my bone stock white on white Model 3 AWD with OEM suspension, 18" OEM wheels, and nice MEATY sidewalls. It not only looks and rides nice, but I don't' have to fear every single curb or driveway.

Ahaha, I read the title and had to click. Thanks for sharing your adventure Matt.

Bronze wheels, carbon body kit, unplugged front bumper, carbon rear diff with rain light, carbon spoiler. That would be my build if I could afford it lol

Still have those 25MM spacers? Can pickup.

I think a white/tasteful carbon look would probably be endgame on a Tesla. Similar to what you have going now but maybe a sprinkle more. Problem is I'm not sure how many companies are sprinkling carbon on the model 3 in good taste

Stock Tesla wheels look so much better. Not into the body add ons. Lowered with camber adjusted and the spacers looks “dialed in”. Carbon brakes are super impressive. Don’t really agree model 3 perf is ugly but to each their own right? In any event…independent of price, I’d much much much rather roll in a Model 3 performance than any Porsche. Electric and the Tesla tech puts the car in a different league. Nice video Matt …as always great delivery and honest commentary….can’t stop watching every time I begin on of your contributions. Cheers.

The white on the rear diffuser doesn't match. How is your OCD not going crazy with that.

Love the OG channel... some cars should not be modified..... Tesla Model 3 might be one of them

All black wheels definitely look better. If I owned a Tesla, I might add some aesthetically good-looking tail pipes for kicks. lol

Did the Pirelli’s come from the factory? If they did then I’m thrilled my wife’s 2020 Model 3 came with PS4S Michelin’s. In almost every application lately the Pirelli’s are excessively stretched, not so much with the Michelin’s. Plus the fact they turn into rocks long before they run out of tread.

Get a Maxton Design front lip….. only problem with it is that is doesn’t come with pre-drilled holes

The “Tesla Nerds” are winning!!!

That body kit is what made the car nerdy. Good decision to remove it. I would also paint the calipers OG Blue. Not much more you can do to this car. It’s not as nerdy of a design as you think, in my opinion.

can you give us an update on the pressol 1.3 bottles? like is there any issues with it?

It’s how many MM per thread. 14x1.1.5 mm between threads. So it’s a coarse thread.

Thank you for getting rid of those blue lips.

They use wheel spacers in NASCAR every week!! I worked as a mechanic for ten years.. We ran up to 1 1/4” of wheel spacers all the time with 0 issue

Hey Matt, I think I see where you’re going with this I really like the rims but yeah the blue just doesn’t work Maybe leave the body kit until you find a new front lip you might find one that works with the existing body kit you can always pull it off if it doesn’t. Maybe paint the barrels gloss black that three piece design looks really good it would be cool if you find a way to accentuate The design maybe even a really dark gray but I wouldn’t blame you going one color may be a little gun shy after the blue anyways excited to see how it turns out have a good one.

Love the new wheels minus the blue. Once you powder coat them black they will look awesome. For what its worth, I think you should do the calipers in blue. Would be sick with M Performance blue calipers. I also like the front aero and hope you put it back on. Weird thing is I dont like Teslas but I am being swayed. lol

I'd just look at the body kit as a sunk cost at this point and move on without it. There aren't any great options out there for these cars and it kind of is what it is. Just leave bumpers and side skirts oe, and continue on with the oe+ elsewhere.

Matt, Thank you again for the support! Let me know if those lug nuts are still bothering you haha. We can certainly work something out... They are suppose to be OEM replacements without the need for those caps like you mentioned in the video, nothing fancy. Sorry to hear about what happened to your lip... For replacement, may I suggest NOVITEC? modelplusstudio.com/products/novitec-front-lip-spoiler?_pos=5&_sid=bc417f28a&_ss=r A subtle OEM+ look but in premium gloss carbon fiber. This will compliment well with your carbon AS rear spoiler in my opinion. We are an official authorized NOVITEC Group dealer, so you will be getting them authentically from the source. All pieces are made to order, so it takes a few weeks for these carbon pieces to be built in Germany and then Air Freighted over. Let me know if there's anything else we can be at help with on your Model 3! -Danny

Why not use a local wheel refurb shop to repaint the lips? Seems like a pain in the ass to ship back to vossen and wait weeks. Surely a proper wheel shop who knows 3 piece wheels can disassemble, powder coat the rims, and re-assemble back to spec?
