How many Tesla's have you owned?
I've owned 5, one being one of the first Model S P85s in 2012, so I'm an early adopter.
I'm joking around of course, but I know Teslas quality is the worst first hand, it's just something you joke about and not get offended when you've owned many of them for...
I blame the Tesla quality assurance team that inspects these things when they're built and prior to delivery to customer.
Oh wait, that team doesn't exist
Correct, I heard they are under investigation for being so ugly they induce random vomiting from pedestrians.
Hopefully they'll just stop delivering trucks with them because they look so damn stupid
ADD / Addictive Desert Design will hopefully make something better. They are the best in the TRX/Raptor world.
The rear bumper is ugly and to be honest, I am not a fan of Unplugged Performance and any of their products and as a company for many reasons that I don't want to get into.
First thing I'll change are those crappy aero covers.
Absolutely hideous.
Stainless steel body: cool
Plastic hubcaps that looks like they came from a Playschool tricycle: Hell no
I've owned them on my Raptors and TRX and they aren't nearly as good as dedicated winter tires for sure. Probably 50% of a winter tire. They don't have sipes on them so ice performance is just ok.
We really don't have many choices for all terrain tires and mud tires are even worse is my point...
Ice is a different story. Mud tires aren't good for ice.
You need the triple peak rated tires for that, or more importantly, winter tires.
There are many mud tires that have compounds that get extremely hard when frozen, and also don't have great ice performance. Mud tires are good.. for the...
Just remember, the treads of the tire matter more than anything. How fast a tire can purge built up snow within the tread is more important than how skinny the tire in.
A skinny tire with tread completely caked up with snow won't do nearly as well as a wide tire that clears it's tread more...
Wrong.
The tire compound matters more. The tires we've seen on the CTs stuck in snow are not good tires, and the compound becomes too hard when they get cold. Not to mention the tread was not ideal and gets caked up with snow too easily.
Pretty cool but Method wheels are played out.
Fuel wheels are much cooler, here's a couple options I'm considering, 18" of course and they even could have less aero drag because the spokes are so closed up. I'll be going with BFG KO2s which are lightweight tires, so this combo should be lighter...
True. I've owned a Tesla since the beginning, one of first 2013 Model S P85s that came out.
I do agree Tesla puts out updates and changes things all the time. I guess when it came to Steer by Wire being such a new technology to the automotive world, and Tesla, something like a turning radius...
