fuh the 19" tyre price walaaaauuuuu..... shocking.gif for 18" u know how much?

but tyre since its wear and tear product, can jz change it outside and wont void warranty kan...

19" tyre outside if continental cc6 I think around rm700/piece. so 4*700=2800. tesla charge double the price. i know its not apple to apple comparison, but should be too far off the price.  doh.gif

If not mistaken Model 3 size is 235/45/18, so about RM700 per piece I guess.

are you sure 19inch got cc6 🤣🤣. as this tesla model 3 torque is high. I see myself too. fuh. feel very premium inside, material feel really atas. I tot feel kosong like what ktard always said. the design is simple but material feel expensive.

that 19inch looks so sexy. usually otr, always see 18inch, rarely see 19inch tesla.

19inch looks nice but sacrifice comfort and efficiency, tyre price more expensive also. really its just for the looks, with some minor improvement to handling

Congratulations to all current RWD owners

Looks like Tesla is giving more basic spec for the RWD entry level in the future.

I’ve seen a couple with the 19”. One is white and the other grey. Definitely looks better. Downside is you get HandCock tyres instead of Michelins.

Actually one of those 19” owners (the grey model) is an acquaintance of mine. Overall he likes the car. I just ignored all the positives (because fanboys like him tend to be hyperbolic) and concentrated on the negatives, and his two biggest complaints were the road noise and glass roof. He’s looking to get the roof cover when it comes out, and plans see some specialists in KL about sound insulation.

road noise are a common issues for EVs not just Tesla, because the car itself is so silent resulting in road noise being more amplified

also nothing wrong with hankook tyres lah.... even some Merc or BMW models now also come with stock hankook

The Hankook iON evo is an UHP? while the Michelin e-Primacy is a tourer right?

ya lor. agree. tbh 19inch is just for bragging only.lol. 19inch in sedan looks so big, while 19inch in suv looks so tiny.

my friend who drive byd also complain about road noise. I bet, that is the one aspect that really hard to insulate, as it come from rolling noise from tyre. and tyre manufacturer cannot produce really low noise tyre for ev as they need to produce good tyre too due to higher torque.

good grippy tyre not go hand in hand with silent tyre. in fact they are opposite. maybe in future will fix this problem

Something to keep an eye on if this translates to other markets in the coming months.

Wow, if Model 3 LR can be 190k that's quite good.

Dont think we should be expecting any price cuts (I could be wrong) since they are new to our market and also we are less competitive compared to China when it comes to EV

I dont think they've ever cut prices in Singapore or Thailand since launch

He was comparing to his collegue’s Ioniq 5. Said the Tesla was noticeably noisier in terms of road noise. Whether that”s due to tyres or insulation materials (or a combination of both), I do not know. I’ve experienced similar with a rented Model 3 (pre-facelift) overseas. It generated way more road noise than a Prius in EV mode, but that could be down to rental companies fitting cheap tyres.

The Ioniq 5 could just be well insulated

New model 3 actually improved the exterior and wind noise by applying double glazed windows to all sides, but I guess they missed out the road part

Hi all....I'm currently considering getting a M3 SR, still reading through all the forums and MyEVOC for all the tips & comments about the M3. Just wondering if anyone of you here are already owners from Melaka and how's the experience so far especially with the delivery of the car (you have to go all the way to Cyber to pick it up?), day to day use in Melaka such as charging facilities and do we have local installers (good ones) for the home charging box? I saw quite a number of M3s on the road here in Melaka but I guess they're from outstation, just wanna get a feel from the local folks here. Thanks in advance.
