And thanks for the help getting those rollers. 🙏🏾
I had H&R Sport spring which lowered my M3LR 1". Ride quality was good, but I got tired of it being so low. This is because Teslas are already low. The 1" drop affected useability more than other cars I've had in the past like a 2018 Audi A4 that I had. I have to say installing 1" lowering springs on a M3 performance doesn't do much because the performance already has sports springs that are slightly lower than the LR or standard.

Wholeheartedly disagree.
Looks great! Great to hear that it rides good too
Been following your channel for awhile and watch a lot of your videos when I was deciding between a Tesla and ID.4. Im in the PHX area as well (Gilbert), can you share you please share your suspension guys info? Want him to add these springs to my 2023 M3. Much appreciated!

Hey! Thanks for watching! His name is Dima Tretyak. He prefers that people reach out to him on Facebook. If you search his name on Facebook in the Phoenix area, he should be the first result. Profile pic is guy with a red shirt with a Ukrainian flag. Just tell him Blake sent you.
I just ordered mine today. 1.5" drop as well. Did you also get the adjustable rear camber arms? If not, you'll wear your tires unevenly. I ordered then for mine as well and will be installing it all myself.

No. I just had an alignment done. Actually only one wheel was slightly off they said. I’ll keep an eye on it though. I did order the new luxury suspension kit to get the shocks that go with the springs, so I’ll be adding those next.
Have you seen any improvement in your average energy consumption? I would consider doing this with my standard range 2022. But 95% of the reason would be to increase range.

Maybe slight improvement. Negligible. Not worth the trouble if just for range.
Looks good!

I have a buddy who did mild. He doesn’t regret it. Haven’t encountered any issues with moderate. Very happy with this decision to this day.

Curious to know is the ride pretty bouncy and do you bottom out pretty hard when you hit a dip ?
@BlakeCheck
2 ай бұрын
I actually ended up adding the luxury shocks too so the ride is buttery smooth now. Much better than stock. when I only had the springs, it was still fine. Definitely not bouncy. Ride was similar to stock when I only had the springs. Have never bottomed out. I’ve scrapped the mud flaps a few times, but that’s it.

This is dope man. Would it void any warranty on the Tesla? Thinking about doing this for my Model Y.
@BlakeCheck
3 ай бұрын
Nope. They just won’t warranty suspension components that are modified of course. There’s more details on UP’s sale page about warranty. Best thing I’ve ever done to any car I’ve ever owned. Not long after this video I went back and upgraded to the full on luxury suspension kit (includes shock and springs). But I thought ride comfort was fine when I only had the springs, in this vid. Up to you!

Yeah it’s pretty bad out here. Lotta idiots. Lotta pissed off teens and old folks sharing the same roads. Add extreme high temps frying everyone’s brains and you’ve got a hell of a mixed drink.
Lowering almost any car is a mistake. There’s nothing more ridiculous than a slammed car jiggling along on its bump stops.
