Q: Do I need to replace my tires when upgrading wheels?
It depends on the size and type of wheels you’re upgrading to. If you’re changing the wheel diameter or width, you may need new tires that are compatible with the new size. You should maintain the overall diameter of the wheel and tire combination to avoid issues with speedometer accuracy, handling, and ride quality.

A staple product anyone that does any spirited or track driving should have. Significantly improved body roll and feel of the car. Immediate difference in the speeds I was able to take turns.

This has been the most important upgrade I’ve made to my car besides the UP carbon ceramic brakes. The adjustability of these suspension parts is second to none. UP does amazing R&D to come up with the best solutions for Teslas, and this product is no exception. Born from race tech they use on...

I love these. They match the blue and black of the plaid. A small but tasteful addition to its style.
Additionally, there are some weight savings.

I’ve worked on cars and pushed them close to their mechanical limits all my life. This Model S Plaid definitely needs a brake upgrade if you tend to push your car harder than the average driver lol. The BBK install was pretty straight forward. You can use the instructions provided or with no...

Tesla Model Y Luxury Suspension Kit
RATED 5.0
I have a Tesla Model 3 LR but the rep at UP accidentally ordered the MY listing instead which is the same since both M3 and MY share most parts including struts. Purchased as the roads in DC just aren't very pleasant and combined with Tesla's stock struts, it's pretty horrendous.
Delivery took...

I really like this rear sway bar on my 2021 Model S Plaid. On the street it tightens up the car a lot. The car corners "flatter" and "feels" like the car has more grip and inspires confidence.
I installed this in my driveway with the rear up on jack stands. It wasn't hard at all. I opted for...

I purchased a set of these Sway bars along with a few other upgrade components for my Model 3 (https://www.instagram.com/p/Cv8c-F2PEYP) The sway bars improve the ride quality, reduced body roll making the car more rigid and stable. Installation and setup was easy, being adjustable is an added bonus....

What a difference this sway bar made to my Model S Plaid. This helps correct the body roll the car has from the factory. I have much more confidence taking turns at a higher speed, and freeway on-ramps have become extremely fun. I would highly recommend upgrading your sway bar in the Model S!

These bearings were installed for me by a shop that unplugged put me in touch with. Their service was excellent. The bearings were able to be installed with zero use of heat, unlike bearing kits for other cards and potentially from other brands. The road feel and confidence in the back end is...

50mm spacers are exactly what you need to give your CyberTruck the stance it was created for!
By a skilled installer all 4 spacers installed under 45 minutes.
2000 miles on them and no wobble!

The UP-05s from Unplugged are a game-changer for my Tesla Model 3 Performance. These wheels have transformed my ride, making the car feel incredibly nimble whether I'm zipping through a Taco Bell drive-thru or carving up some twisty country roads. The aesthetics are on point - these wheels look sick...

Product is top notch when I installed them it was like switching from a 1 piston sliding caliper to a bbk. Also cold performance and noise are really good

These brakes have been a game changer for the Plaid. It's a bulky 5000lb 1000hp monster and needs brakes that fit the bill. Unfortunately, the stock setup left a lot to be desired especially when climbing towards the higher speeds. At that point, the brake application felt more like a suggestion and...

Somewhat similar to the other reviews, these Luxury Coilovers are an amazing product, but may require a little fine tuning. The good news is that if you’re patient, the team at UPP will take great care of you.
I initially placed an order for the Lux Coilovers for my 2021 LR MY in October. With...

Model S / Model S Plaid (2021+) UP x PFC Large Sweep Brake Rotor and Pad Set (For OEM Caliper)
RATED 5.0
I upgraded to these from my stock rotors and pads primarily for the lighter unsprung weight as I take my car to the drag strip on occasion. There was a noticeable difference in how early I was to stop in the slow-down zone after the 1/4 mile. I also bought their Stainless Steel Brake lines and...
