    I'll be keeping my eyes out for those wheels at a supercharger so I can say hello ;D I just checked them out and I'm impressed that with the aero installed they're about 0.2lbs lighter than my 18's without the aero on. I'm still looking at other wheels admittedly for further weight reduction and styling, but these are very enticing for efficiency given what I do for a living and for content.

    You were in my hood (Chula Vista). I’m actually debating on whether to get the new Highland Performance but ONLY if I can get 19” rims. I’ve heard way too many stories with the 20” tires. I also don’t want the 20” rims / tires due to the increase in road noise and stiffer ride. I just wish that Tesla could just sell me the M3P with the 19” rims. I guess that I will have to go your route of driving it straight to Discount and going through the hassle of selling the stock 20” rims and tires. Seems like such a hassle.

    Cars in Europe have been driving without mirrors and only cameras for over 5 years without incident. I see cars with broken off mirrors all the time. I can see more with the cameras as they have a wider field of view, and they are flush with the body of the car, so not only are they harder to damage, but efficiency can be improved by as much as 10% just by removing the mirrors.
