Q: Do I need to get an alignment after installing aftermarket wheels?
Although it is not necessary, unless suspension modifications are also being installed at the same time, it’s often recommended to get a alignment after installing new wheels, especially if the size, offset, or width of the wheels significantly differs from stock specifications. This helps prevent uneven tire wear and ensures that the vehicle handles properly.

Not a fan of the OEM rear look of the Model 3. This got me looking back at my car every chance I get! Better rear downforce as well. Feels much more confident around turns at high speeds.

Bought it years ago and it’s still in perfect condition. Super high quality carbon, no yellowing and still sticks on hard to the car! Looks stunning as well.

Best bang for your buck upgrade for your Tesla. Unplugged Performance installed these a few months after I got my Model 3 and was an immediate and significant difference.

I wanted the ability to lower my 2018 Model X 100D to improve the looks and aerodynamics. Unplugged Performance Sports Dynamic Lowering Kit did both these things for me.
