Q: Will lowering my car reduce my ground clearance and what happens if I scrape my car?

Yes, your ground clearance will be adjusted by equivalent lowering value of the lowering spring you select. We address this question in greater depth above within the subject “which version should I get?”. Cars of factory height and of all shapes and sizes unfortunately sometimes encounter situations in which they scrape and/or incur damage. In such cases the cost of that damage is the responsibility of the driver and not of the vehicle or aftermarket part manufacturer. When choosing to lower your vehicle, we encourage you to be aware that you are reducing ground clearance and therefore increasing your chances of impact. Drivers of previously low cars tend to understand this inherently, however if this topic is new to you please take consideration of all facts before making your decision.

Tesla Model Y Luxury Pro Coilover Suspension Kit
I bought 2023 Tesla Model Y in December 2022 and immediately noticed rough and bumpy ride. I contacted Tesla service, assuming that something is broken, but they confirmed that this is how stock suspension supposed to feel. Fortunately an aftermarket solution exists. I ordered Luxury Coilover Kit...

I have been looking at this Wheel and tire set for over a year and finally made the plunge a few months ago. Now my CyberTruck is complete. This is the best looking wheel out there IMO.

Tesla Model 3 Luxury Suspension Kit
WIFE APPROVED!!! I have a 2018 Model 3 LR AWD with the stock 18" wheels. I've always felt that the ride was a bit stiff and jittery with the stock suspension. Looking around for a solution, I came across coil-over kits which were expensive and I really didn't think I would need the adjustability...

Tesla Model 3 / Performance - Dual Rate Linear Lowering Springs Set
My 2019 Performance Model 3 is great, but with the heavy weight of this EV the cornering at high speeds was disappointing. I recently added these Dual Rate Lowering Springs to the UP Sway Bars, and the handling is definitely getting better! The initial spring rate makes the bumps less jarring with...

Purchased a 19 x 9.5 UP-03 wheels. They look awesome, feel lighter when you're steering, and I'm able to gain 1-2 % of range when driving around town. Shahar helped me through the purchasing process and set me up with a relatively painless cross-border shipping arrangement. Keep up the good work!

Had the bars installed with the end links on my M3P, at the same time lowered with performance springs and got new tires. No regrets. The car rides flat af. I look forward to round-abouts now. Big ups to UP.

Tesla Cybertruck Wheel Spacers - 30mm & 50mm  - UP INVINCIBLE®
Want to stand out among other Cybtertrucks? This is a great place to start. If you're trying to decide between the 30mm and 50mm, go with the 50mm. The 2" that it kicks each tire out absolutely toughens the stance of the Cybertruck. I found these spacers to be EXTREMELY well made and easy to...

I installed these parts and I am very satisfied. The quality is great, the engines don't heat up anymore and with that magnet I make sure that there are no filings in the engines. A very good investment.
