Question 1

235/35R20 versus a 245-section, which grips more?

Accepted Answer

A wider 245-section, like the 245/40R19 4S, puts slightly more rubber on the road than this 235, so at the limit it edges ahead on peak grip. The 235/35ZR20 answers with lower weight and a fraction less rolling resistance, which helps steering feel and range. On the street the difference is small. Wheel width decides it: the 235 is matched to the 9-inch +25 wheel we recommend.

Question 2

About that Gloss Black Machined finish, what should I expect?

Accepted Answer

The CYBRHEX comes in Satin Black, Satin Bronze, Satin Titanium, and a two-tone Gloss Black with Machined finish. On the machined option, the cut sections are left with a raw machined look, so they may show fine lines and other marks from the machining process, which is normal and part of that finish's character. If you want a completely uniform look, one of the satin finishes is the safer choice. Custom finishes are also available.

Question 3

Adjustable spherical links versus stock rubber ones, which should I run?

Accepted Answer

Rubber links are quiet and cheap but they flex and cannot be adjusted, so at a modified ride height they fight your setup. These spherical links stay tight for a firmer, more precise anti-roll response and adjust to any height. If your car sits at stock height and you never touch it, stock is fine. Lower it, lift it, or track it, and adjustable is the right call.

Question 4

Are 22-inch aftermarket wheels going to wreck my range and efficiency?

Accepted Answer

There is a small efficiency cost to any larger, wider wheel and tire, and 22s are the upper end of that. UP offsets it where it can: the CYBRHEX is forged aluminum optimized for the Tesla platform with attention to strength and aerodynamics, and the Parada Spec-X is an efficient UHP all-season rather than a soft sticky tire. The impact is modest and predictable. You are buying this package for presence and handling, with efficiency kept reasonable.

Question 5

Are aftermarket brake lines going to cause trouble with my Tesla warranty?

Accepted Answer

Installing them does not automatically void your Tesla warranty. Under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, Tesla has to show that the lines caused a specific failure before denying a related claim, and these are engineered to follow factory routing on the OEM system. Professional installation and keeping the original lines make reverting easy if you ever need to.

Question 6

Are BBS wheels actually worth it on a Model Y?

Accepted Answer

BBS builds to a standard most aftermarket wheels never touch, and the Flugplatz shows it. We developed it with BBS GmbH in Germany, where it passed TUV SUD testing beyond 2,000,000 load cycles, ten times what TUV requires. It uses the same flow-formed process BBS supplies to Ferrari and Porsche. For a Model Y that daily-drives and occasionally sees a track, that engineering headroom is the point.

Question 7

Are carbon ceramic brakes noisy or bad in cold weather?

Accepted Answer

Early carbon ceramic rotors from names like Ferrari and Porsche earned a reputation for squealing and being cranky when cold, but the latest generation has moved past that. We have found our carbon ceramic systems quieter than any iron system we have tried with performance pads, and they work well from boiling track days to frozen mountain roads.

Question 8

Are coilovers worth it on a Model Y if I mostly street drive?

Accepted Answer

For many owners, yes. The Sport Pro coilovers give more comfort and better handling than stock, plus height adjustability to set your exact stance and 32-way damping to fine-tune how soft or firm the car rides. Thousands of our Pro-series customers bought them for nothing more than a smoother daily Model Y, and the same set can sharpen up for an occasional track day.

Question 9

Are competition brake pads a good idea for a Model Y I also drive on the street?

Accepted Answer

Honestly, no. These are a pure racing-style solution with an aggressive high-friction compound that needs heat to work at its best. On the street you will see accelerated rotor wear plus more noise and dust, and the pads feel their strongest only once they are up to temperature. If your Model Y splits time between commuting and the occasional track day, a dual-purpose pad suits you better.

Question 10

Are forged wheels like the UP-04 worth it over cheaper cast wheels?

Accepted Answer

If you value strength and longevity, yes. Cast wheels are cheaper but heavier and more prone to cracking on impact, while the forged UP-04 delivers a better strength-to-weight ratio, lower unsprung mass, and simulation-validated durability. That translates to sharper response and fewer bent rims over time, with potential efficiency gains. It is a bigger upfront spend that pays back in how the car drives and in wheels that survive the road.

Question 11

Are pads alone enough for serious track work?

Accepted Answer

No, and we are straight about that. A pad-only upgrade is ideal for light and occasional performance driving. If you are serious about repeated track or top-speed running, step up to the Superlight Carbon Ceramic Front Big Brake Kit. If you are between the two and also need new rotors, one of our UP x PFC iron rotor and pad kits is the middle path.

Question 12

Are Tesla accessories from Unplugged Performance compatible with all Tesla models?

Accepted Answer

Most UP accessories are model and year specific. Use the model filter on this page to see only accessories confirmed to fit your Tesla. UP carries accessories for all current Tesla models including Model S (2012 to present), Model 3 (2017 to present), Model X (2016 to present), Model Y (2020 to present), and Cybertruck (2023 to present).

Question 13

Are the 21-inch UP-03 offsets right for both the standard X and the Plaid?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The 21x9.5 and 21x10.5 ET35 offsets are engineered for the Model X and Model X Plaid, clearing factory brakes and filling the arches without spacers. Every package arrives with TPMS, mounted and balanced. Prefer a taller sidewall for pockmarked roads? Drop down to the 20-inch UP-03 package, which uses this same design and fitment logic.

Question 14

Are the bars adjustable, and what do the settings do?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Each bar offers three individual rates, front and rear, developed through extensive testing, though we don't publish the exact numbers to slow down copycat products. Softer and medium settings suit daily-driven cars, while the firm settings are optimized for full slicks and high-downforce track aero. You can also disconnect them entirely to maximize suspension travel off-road.

Question 15

Are the canards carbon fiber?

Accepted Answer

No, they are molded plastic. We chose that material on purpose for strength, impact resistance, and durability at the bumper corners, an area that takes stone chips and parking knocks. It also keeps the price at $385 rather than the premium a structural carbon part would carry. The finish is designed to read as factory equipment from every angle.

Question 16

Are the DUAL RATE LINEAR LOWERING SPRINGS linear or progressive?

Accepted Answer

Neither. It is a third category. The dual rate nature of this product is a direct descendant to motorsports “stacked’ spring setups. A stacked spring is two linear springs of differing spring rates and lengths that are stacked together with a predetermined location for a transition point between spring rates. This strategy employed on high end motorsports suspensions provides predictable results yet allows advanced tuning of handling characteristics by using two independent linear spring rates. The dual rate spring we offer is of equivalent concept. It employs two specifically engineered linear spring rates with a specifically located transition point between the two rates. Therefore, it is more linear spring than progressive spring in nature, yet is a third category.

Question 17

Are the factory Bilstein dampers still doing their job after this?

Accepted Answer

Yes. This kit adjusts ride height, not damping. The 2021+ Model X comes with Bilstein dampers that vary stiffness in real time based on driving data, and that behavior carries on unchanged. You are lowering where the car sits, not replacing the shocks. That is a big part of why the everyday ride stays intact.

Question 18

Are the suspension warning messages after lowering a problem?

Accepted Answer

Some Model X vehicles may show a visual "Suspension may not be level" message after the lowering kit is installed, a result of Tesla's factory software calibration variances. It does not impact drivability and many owners consider it acceptable. If your car shows codes, review the installation first, since installation error or vehicle differences can trigger them.

Question 19

Are the UP-03 Lightweight wheels good for track use?

Accepted Answer

Yes. They are engineered for both track and street, blending motorsport design with everyday reliability, and made from aerospace-grade 6061-T6 forged aluminum for strength that stands up to hard driving. The low weight matters most when you are changing direction and braking repeatedly on a circuit. If you want to try that, our TeslaCorsa track day is a natural place to use them.

Question 20

Are the UP-04 wheels sold with tires?

Accepted Answer

No, this is a set of four wheels only. You choose the diameter, fitment, and finish, and then fit tires separately. If you would rather have everything arrive mounted, balanced, and ready to bolt on, look at a complete wheel and tire package such as the 22-inch UP-05 package instead. The bare-wheel route suits owners who already have tires they like.

Question 21

Are the UP-04 wheels strong enough for a Model X?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The straight-spoke design uses stepped machining and center buttressing specifically to add strength while cutting weight, and it is forged from 6061 aluminum for a tight, durable grain structure. That combination handles the mass and torque of a Model X and resists impacts from everyday roads. Forging is the reason the wheel can be both light and tough, rather than picking one.

Question 22

Are the UP-05 wheels a bolt-on fit or do I need spacers?

Accepted Answer

Bolt-on. The ET35 offsets are chosen so the wheels sit correctly in the fenders and clear the factory brakes without spacers or fender work. The package ships mounted, balanced, and with TPMS installed, so the on-car step is simply torquing them to spec. That is the advantage of a wheel designed for the Model X rather than a universal fitment.

Question 23

Are the UP-RW FF wheels a single-fitment Model Y wheel or a universal set?

Accepted Answer

They're single-fitment: engineered specifically for the Model Y bolt pattern, hub, and brake clearance, with no spacers required. That focus is the upside, since the wheel sits in exactly the right spot without shims or adapters. If you instead want a set that follows you across a mixed Tesla garage, a double-drilled forged design is the tool for that. For a Model Y you plan to keep, this purpose-built fit is the point.

Question 24

Are these a good pad for refreshing the brakes on a used Model Y?

Accepted Answer

They are an ideal choice for that. Many pre-owned Model Ys still wear factory pads that may be unevenly worn or tuned mainly for efficiency. Rather than dropping in another set of OEM pads, these give an immediate improvement in braking feel, responsiveness, and confidence with no extra modifications. You refresh a wear item and upgrade performance in the same step.

Question 25

Are these a real upgrade or just a stock replacement?

Accepted Answer

Both at once. Rather than swapping worn rubber for the same rubber, these are full OEM-spec arms cast from OEM-quality aluminum with every associated bushing and ball joint upgraded and pre-installed. Developed and tested at Pikes Peak Hill Climb in our Dark Helmet race car, they fix a worn-out front end and sharpen precision in a single job.

Question 26

Are these beadlock wheels street legal?

Accepted Answer

Yes, and that is the clever part. Mount the tire bead inside the rim, with or without the beadlock ring fitted, and the wheel behaves as a standard DOT-compliant wheel for highway and daily use. Mount the bead outside the rim with the ring torqued down and you have full off-road beadlock capability. Two modes, one wheel.

Question 27

Are these brake lines specific to my 2021+ Model X, or a universal set?

Accepted Answer

They are vehicle-specific for the 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid, developed to follow the factory line routing for a proper fit rather than sold as a one-size cut-to-length kit. Verify your car is a 2021 or newer Model X before ordering so the set matches your hard-line layout.

Question 28

Are these doors street legal, or track only?

Accepted Answer

They are racing parts intended for off-road use only, meant to be run with proper racing safety equipment and a roll cage. They are aimed at Model 3 race cars and dedicated track-day builds, not daily street driving. If you are building a car for competition, these fit that purpose, and a Tesla-focused event like TeslaCorsa is exactly where such a build belongs. For a street car, our carbon exterior and aero parts are the right route instead.

Question 29

Are these forged wheels covered if one cracks or bends?

Accepted Answer

The UP-RW's forged construction is engineered so that bending or cracking one under normal use is genuinely hard to do, which is why Unplugged Performance backs the structure with a lifetime replacement guarantee. Potholes, broken pavement, and hard curb strikes are exactly what the design is meant to absorb. Full terms are on UP's site, but the short version is that the wheel is built to be the last set you buy.

Question 30

Are these forged wheels durable enough to be worth it over cast wheels?

Accepted Answer

Forged construction is the durability story here. The UP-03 Off-Road Spec wheel is pressed from solid aluminum, making it lightweight yet far more resistant to bending and cracking than the cast wheels Tesla ships, which matters a lot once you leave smooth pavement. Fewer bent rims means lower long-term cost, even before you factor in the Geolandar's long tread life. For rough roads, it earns its keep.

Question 31

Are these forged wheels durable enough to daily and take to the track?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The forged 6061-T6 architecture gives high load capacity and consistent feedback on back roads, and the knurled barrel beads reduce tire slip during hard launches. It is built for daily miles and track-curious weekends alike. If you want to actually run it in anger, our TeslaCorsa track day experience is a good place to learn the car's limits safely.

Question 32

Are these hubcentric, or will I get vibration?

Accepted Answer

They are hubcentric, meaning each spacer centers on the hub exactly like the factory mounting, so there is no wobble or vibration from the wheel hanging on the studs. That is the difference between a properly engineered spacer and a cheap universal one. The wheel locates on the machined bore, not on the lug hardware, which keeps everything running true at speed.

Question 33

Are these lines a fit for a track-driven Model Y?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Consistent pedal feel matters most under the heat and repeated hard stops of track use, and the braided construction holds firm where rubber would swell and go soft. Owners running the Competition and Racing pads often add these lines for that reason. The result is a more predictable pedal lap after lap, which builds confidence when you are braking deep into a corner.

Question 34

Are these mirror covers meant to be removed and refitted often?

Accepted Answer

No, they are a fit-once part. The covers fully wrap the factory edge so no original body color shows, which is what makes the finish look native, but that tight interlocking wrap is not built for frequent removal. Taking them on and off repeatedly risks the clean fit. Plan to install them a single time and leave them in place for the life of the car.

Question 35

Are these Road Warrior wheels forged or flow-formed?

Accepted Answer

This is the flow-formed version, which brings the UP-RW Road Warrior design to a more accessible price while keeping serious strength. If you want the top-tier version, the design started life as the UP-RW forged wheel, which is lighter still and machined from solid billet. For most daily-driven Model Ys, the flow-formed package delivers the aero benefit and the durability that matter day to day.

Question 36

Are these strong enough for serious off-road abuse?

Accepted Answer

They share the same high-strength forged aluminum and I-beam spoke architecture as the standard UP-03, down to the barrel knurling, and that wheel has a hard-earned durability record. The beadlock adds low-pressure capability on top of that foundation. Forged construction resists the bending and cracking that catches out cast wheels on rocks and ruts.

Question 37

Are these track-only or can I still drive on the street?

Accepted Answer

Both. The wide range of height and damping adjustment is engineered to satisfy street and track use. Set the 24-way damping soft and the ride is comfortable enough to daily drive; turn it up and you get the nimbleness to chase lap records. They are typically on the fastest cars at our TeslaCorsa track days, yet the same car drives home in comfort afterward.

Question 38

Are these UP-03 wheels good for winter and mountain commuting?

Accepted Answer

They're well suited to it. Spec Michelin X-Ice Snow, Pirelli Winter Sottozero, or Pilot Alpin PA4 and the 19-inch sidewall handles rutted snow, slush, and winter potholes. Owners who store their factory 20 or 21-inch wheels for the season lean on this exact setup. It's a smart way to keep braking and traction where they should be when temperatures drop instead of fighting summer rubber in the cold.

Question 39

Are these UP-05 wheels durable enough for daily driving?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Forged 6061-T6 aluminum has a continuous grain structure that resists cracking and shrugs off the impacts of daily roads far better than a cast wheel of similar weight. Starting from 23.04 pounds, the UP-05 is light without being fragile. Curb rash aside, which is cosmetic, a forged wheel like this is built to last the life of the car under normal use. If you want the lightest option we offer, the UP-03 Lightweight forged wheels start even lower.

Question 40

Are these wheels a good choice for a Tesla fleet or Robotaxi?

Accepted Answer

Yes, that is the market they were developed for. The UP-RW came out of the UP.FIT forged wheel program, where wheels get tested on law enforcement Teslas, so uptime and durability drove every decision. For a rideshare operator or fleet manager, a cracked wheel means lost income and downtime, and the free replacement guarantee plus curb protection are aimed squarely at keeping vehicles earning. Daily drivers get the same benefit.

Question 41

Are these wheels genuinely track-proven or just track-styled?

Accepted Answer

Genuinely proven. From Pikes Peak to Buttonwillow and Laguna Seca, UP-03 wheels have supported record laps with Randy Pobst, and the 6061-T6 forging with a 950 kg per-corner rating backs that up. If you are prepping for lapping, pair them with track pads and a TeslaCorsa track day to learn the car. The hardware is ready for far more than most street cars will ask of it.

Question 42

Are these wheels mounted and balanced before they ship?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Each UP-05 20-inch package arrives with the Michelin tires already mounted and balanced, plus four TPMS sensors installed. You receive a complete, ready-to-bolt-on set: four forged wheels, four tires in the correct sizes, and the sensors. That keeps the swap to a single appointment instead of a separate trip to a tire shop.

Question 43

Are these wheels strong enough for a fully loaded Model X?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The UP-03 is forged from aerospace-grade aluminum with high load ratings specifically to handle Model X mass, passengers, and cargo without compromise. Forging aligns the metal's grain for strength that cast wheels cannot match at the same weight. Loaded up with the whole family and gear, the wheel has the structural margin to take it, plus the impact resistance for real-world pavement.

Question 44

Are these wheels strong enough to be worth the price over stock?

Accepted Answer

The forged 6061-T6 monoblock construction is the value. It delivers a very high load rating for the Model Y while resisting the cracking that plagues cast OEM wheels, and UP backs the structure with a lifetime replacement guarantee if you ever bend or crack one. The same wheel is available as a bare Road Warrior set if you already have tires. Add the replaceable curb protection and a durable satin powder coat that resists UV fade, and the wheel is built to outlast several sets of cheaper cast rims.

Question 45

Are these worth it for a car that mostly sees track days?

Accepted Answer

For track use they open up real tuning freedom. Rear toe strongly affects corner entry stability and how the car rotates, and the fixed factory arm gives you none of that latitude. With these you can set a small amount of toe-in for a planted rear or experiment for sharper turn-in. UP built these for greater freedom in alignment settings and better on-track behavior, the kind of edge that pays off during a TeslaCorsa Track Day Experience.

Question 46

Are tires included with the UP-02 set?

Accepted Answer

No, the UP-02 is sold as a set of four wheels only. Choose your diameter, fitment, and finish, source tires to match, and tack on a set of four TPMS sensors if your car needs them. If you prefer a turnkey setup that arrives mounted and balanced, one of our complete Model X wheel and tire packages is the better route.

Question 47

Are tires included with the UP-03 Lightweight set?

Accepted Answer

No, this is a four-wheel set sold without tires. Once diameter, fitment, and finish are settled, tires are fitted separately, and four TPMS sensors can be added as an option. If you would rather receive a complete setup mounted and balanced, our Model X UP-03 wheel and tire packages bundle the tires and sensors together. The bare set suits owners with tires already in hand.

Question 48

Are tires part of this UP-05 listing?

Accepted Answer

No, this is the set of four wheels by itself. After you settle on diameter, fitment, and finish, tires go on separately, with a four-piece TPMS set available as an option. Note the sensor type differs by year: 2015 to 2020 Model X uses the standard TPMS, and 2021+ uses a Bluetooth version. For a mounted, ready-to-run setup, consider a complete wheel and tire package.

Question 49

Are toe arms worth it on their own, or only as part of a full rear setup?

Accepted Answer

They deliver on their own, especially for correcting rear toe after lowering or for tightening up highway stability. That said, they are designed to work alongside the rest of the rear suite, and many owners pair them with the billet rear lower fore link and camber arms so the whole rear axle is upgraded together. Buy them alone for a targeted fix, or as part of a complete rear alignment package.

Question 50

Are Unplugged Performance parts made in the USA?

Accepted Answer

Every Unplugged Performance product is designed and engineered in Hawthorne, CA. Our in-house team specifies every component to exacting standards developed through real-world motorsport validation, so what works on the track works on your daily driver. UP Forged wheels are produced using 6061-T6 aluminum. UP has been engineering Tesla-specific performance parts since 2013 and holds multiple patents on its designs.

Question 51

Are Unplugged Performance suspension components compatible with Tesla Autopilot and Full Self-Driving features?

Accepted Answer

Yes, all Unplugged Performance suspension components—including lowering springs, coilovers, and alignment kits—are designed to be fully compatible with Tesla’s Autopilot and Full Self-Driving (FSD) systems. Our parts preserve factory sensor angles, suspension behavior, and ride quality thresholds. In fact, many of our customers report smoother lane tracking and improved driving stability after installation due to the improved chassis control and reduced body motion. Tesla’s driver-assistance features rely on consistent suspension geometry and road feedback; our components are engineered to retain this integrity. We also carefully consider ride height impact to ensure forward-facing sensors and cameras are not affected. Because our components are designed specifically for Tesla platforms, there’s no compromise to your car’s safety systems. That said, professional installation and alignment are crucial to preserving these features. We’re always available to advise on setup options that best complement your Autopilot experience.

Question 52

Are UP parts compatible with Tesla's TPMS system?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All Unplugged Performance wheels are engineered to maintain full compatibility with Tesla's Tire Pressure Monitoring System(TPMS). UP wheel fitments maintain the correct hub-centric sizing and offset specifications to prevent interference with Tesla's sensors and onboard systems. TPMS sensors from factory wheels can be transferred to UP wheels, or new sensors can be supplied and programmed during installation.

Question 53

Camber arms or toe arms first for a Model S with worn rear tires?

Accepted Answer

Start with camber. On these cars the inner-edge wear is usually driven by excess rear camber, so the adjustable rear camber arm set is the first fix. Toe affects wear too, so a full correction can use both, and the billet adjustable rear toe arm set pairs naturally with these for complete rear alignment control. If you only buy one to chase inner wear, make it the camber arms.

Question 54

Can a sway bar make a Model Y ride better instead of stiffer?

Accepted Answer

Yes, when it is tuned for comfort rather than lap times. Most performance bars chase maximum roll stiffness, which feels busy on rough streets and can worsen head-toss over offset bumps. Our Luxury Comfort bar targets calmer cornering and lane changes with a smooth, progressive feel that preserves primary ride quality. The car settles down, passengers feel less side-to-side bobble, and the ride stays relaxed.

Question 55

Can coilovers really ride better than my stock suspension?

Accepted Answer

Yes, and it surprises people. Set to soft, the ride is comfortable enough that sports-car owners daily drive them, yet the same kit tightens up when you turn the damping toward firm. Independent ride-height adjustment keeps the correct droop and preload at any height, so lowering the car does not cost you travel or ride quality the way a cheap drop can.

Question 56

Can I actually take a Model Y off-road on this setup?

Accepted Answer

It is built for light off-road exploration and dirt-road duty, not hardcore rock crawling. The forged UP-03 wheel shrugs off impacts that dent cast wheels, and the Geolandar X-CV adds year-round traction, so fire roads, campsites, and snowy trailheads are well within reach. For serious clearance you would combine it with a lift. If overlanding is the goal, look at the Overlanding and Offroad package.

Question 57

Can I add tires and TPMS through Unplugged Performance?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Select the wheel and tire package option at checkout and a UP Tesla specialist will reach out to arrange tires, TPMS, and mount and balance, with the final price confirmed once your tire is chosen. It turns a bare wheel order into a set that arrives ready to install. If you go 19-inch, a Michelin Pilot Sport 4S in 275/35ZR19 is one popular fit, so have your preferred tire in mind when they call.

Question 58

Can I add wheels and tires to this, and can your shop install it?

Accepted Answer

Yes on both. The order form has a wheel-and-tire option, and after checkout a Tesla specialist follows up to work out wheel, tire, TPMS, and mount-and-balance details and final pricing. For installation, our Hawthorne team can fit the whole package if you are near Los Angeles; use the install request on the page. Given the scope, professional installation and alignment are strongly recommended.

Question 59

Can I build a proper off-road Model Y with this wheel?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the 18-inch UP-05 with the +20 stance and all-terrain rubber is a solid foundation for it. To make it capable off pavement, add clearance and travel with a lift. Our Dirt & Snow coilover kit raises the car up to 2 inches while keeping it civil on the road, and that pairing, tall-sidewall 18s plus real suspension travel, is how you turn a Model Y into a genuine adventure vehicle.

Question 60

Can I build an off-road Model Y around the UP-03 wheel?

Accepted Answer

Yes, and the UP-03 is a natural base for it. In an 18-inch off-road spec it pairs with all-terrain rubber for trail duty, and there's even a beadlock-style version for serious use. For a dirt-focused build, look at the UP-03 x Yokohama Geolandar package and back it with a lift. The 19 here is more of an all-road wheel, capable on rough surfaces but tuned for pavement first.

Question 61

Can I buy just the Large Sweep rotors or just the pads?

Accepted Answer

The listing offers the full rotor and pad set, replacement rotors, or replacement pads, but the components are engineered as a matched pair. We strongly recommend against mixing them: Large Sweep rotors should only run with Large Sweep pads, and Large Sweep pads only with Large Sweep rotors. Running one without the other undoes the geometry that makes the kit work.

Question 62

Can I buy just the traction arms or just the trailing arms?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can order the full billet rear traction and trailing arm set, the traction arms only, or the trailing arms only. That flexibility helps if you are building the rear suspension in stages or already replaced one pair. Many owners pair these with the front lower control arm spherical bushing set to firm up both ends of the car.

Question 63

Can I buy these three parts separately, or is the package the better deal?

Accepted Answer

You can buy the adjustable rear sway bar, the lowering kit, and the camber arms individually, but the package groups the most effective combination at a bundle price. Buying them together also means they are chosen to work as a system. If you want stance and roll control with tire protection built in, the package is the efficient path.

Question 64

Can I buy wheels only, or do I need a full package?

Accepted Answer

Wheels can be purchased individually as sets of 4, or as Wheel and Tire Packages. Wheel and Tire Packages bundle wheels with Unplugged Performance's recommended tire selection for that specific fitment, pre-mounted and balanced, ready to install. Packages are available for all Tesla models and represent a convenient all-in-one upgrade option.
