From 5000 mile oil change to 5000 mile tire change. 😂
Wow! what are you doing to it?
Do you get more miles on your Bentley? it weighs about the same...
16k miles on original tires. The secret? Don't F* with it.. (ie, don't lower it).
Bro, all you had to do was get the Macsboost Camber Kit. Might as well just be shims. Manually adjust the toe yourself like they put in the directions. Tires on Plaid X are brand new after over 8,000 miles. It was under $300 when I bought it.
The auto-steer adjusts the steering based off the alignment, if your alignment is off it will correct for that. I guess it needed to recalibrate and was freaking out because a big adjustment had been made.
Just guessing, but you only need that if you've lowered your car. Factory suspension isn't borked like that. The reason you only get 5k miles on a set of tires is because you're driving on the inside edge of them all the time once the car is lowered and the camber goes so negative.
I don't understand how I'm at 29,000 miles on my Model S Plaid and have only changed my tires once, yet others apparently seem to go through tires every 5000 miles. I've never modded mine, and the one time I changed tires I had Tesla do it for me so maybe that's why?
Do you have 19” wheels or 21”?
21" @@VehicleVirgins
Did you reset the tire calibration in the Service menu? The traction control system probably detects the slightly larger tire diameters and needs to recalibrate on its own if you didn't reset it to force a recalibration.
Did you change the size of the tires? When you change the OD of the tires, the car will take about 20 or so minutes to learn the new setup. Instead of getting camber arms for my Plaid, I installed washers behind the camber arms which worked perfect.
Ok. As a fellow plaid owner, and the owner of a 2013 p85+ who has dealt with shorter tie like for the last decade, my question is what is the effect on the performance by taking out the intentionally input camber? Also, you discussed adjusting the performance profile by adjusting one camber, but then you showed the way unplugged performance does this and it included putting it on a rack and removing the bottom metal protective piece… which seems to be quite a bit of work to get that adjustment in performance.
Rims with that color looks sick !!!
Your Plaid with those wheels look bad ass
Hey Parker PLEASE give us your update unplugged UP rear camber arms, how is your tires holding up now???
Please keep us updated on results. Thank you!
Great video
Btw, are you gonna change the rims? Smaller rims could significantly increase the range
Remember when you actually had people watching your vids.
As one of the real 1,000 left, I'm out after this video. Not for me. The chat bots even left.
Teslacontent is boring af. His Pagani Huayra POV not long ago has over 1 Million views.
@jeffhoward8090 Remember when he actually didn’t have useless comments like this? He gives a tesla update and this is what makes you decide to finally leave? @Kieferdrives I mean he just reviewed a McLaren 750S/Maserati MC20 and other cool shit but because he made a meaningful video (if you happen to own a Tesla) you’ve reached your threshold because it doesn’t apply to you 😂
@@jameswillard1 The last 10 videos really didn't do it for me. I'm all for doing mods to Teslas but this video was just another in a long series of videos I didn't need to watch. I'm glad you're enjoying it though and I'll check back in for the occasional ultra epic content like the 250 GTO POV.
It’s the auto steering offset. You can check the exact offset by getting into the service mode.
I owned a Tesla Model X from 2016-2021, the best car in 40 years, no issues, no range anxiety, no charging in the cold problems, the Falcon Doors worked flawless. The Tesla X saved my life going 65 mph in Kansas City on 435 south loop. A very large Church like chair fell from the back of a truck. I did not have time to respond but guess what, the car steered left to avoid the chair crashing into my windshield and likely severely injuring me or worse. Then steered back into the original lane to avoid a car to my left rear blind spot. There no amount of features better than collision avoidance. For Tesla its routine to help its drivers, its built into the design of this EV
Those wheels look so sick 🔥🔥
Will this void the warranty?
Sick wheel choice
so my car, i have a 2017 honda civic. cvt... I did a dougnut in the snow and it tried to take a screen shot or somthing because my Traction, power steering, and saftey feature all magically shut off and all my warning lights where lit.... car told me to drive safley in the mean time... just parked and turned it off and on, everything came back except traction control until i drove for a mile or so... and all was good. ...just wanted to share my bizzare moment of losing traction and driving controls... Ive even tried to recreate this.. and did more and more and even more agresive dougnuts.. and it never happend again.
Yes that weird AP has done that to me a few times. The last time it happened I was booted off AP for a week 😤😤🤬 Model 3 LR
While I respect this, I experienced similar issues on a stock car. Yes it’s 1000 horsepower but every 5000 miles is ridiculous. And one of the windows decided to go boom because the regulators were messed up.
Parker those wheels are nice and tucked in well for the perfect stance. Much success for extended tire life with the new camber support.
You know I really expected this to be a video explaining why petroheads such as me and you shouldn't hate Electric cars. People say it was no longer Ferrari against lamborghini, mercedes against bmw, it's all of us against electric cars. Poeple says electric cars don't have a soul. After your video I still agree, I still hate Teslas
I have a staggered set of 20” TE37’s on my Model S Plaid and I experienced the same thing you did right after the install. I was pretty annoyed and then it all went away and it drives normal again.
yooo wtf what wheels are those damn they dope
You bashed Tesla endlessly for your premature tire wear. Never looking at the obvious. It’s a heavy car, with instant torque, 1000hp, and you lowered the car with N2itive lowering links. In all your wisdom, did you ever think to ask the alignment guys for a printout of your rear camber, I’m sure you were easily at 2 or even 3 degrees of negative camber in the rear. The same company you got the lowering links, also makes adjustable rear camber arms, and for $900 you could have saved yourself numerous sets of tires. Not sure why you went with UP when you’re already using N2itive products on your car. I expect non car enthusiasts to get confused about tire wear, but you’re supposedly a “car guy.” Congrats on finally getting your rear camber into spec, some of us have been enjoying our model S for a long time with proper tire wear. Btw make sure your alignment techs dial in your rear to 0.7-0.8 neg camber other wise you’ll continue to have issues and want to blame Tesla.
jesus man it’s not that deep
@@SelfulStudio careful guys this NPC is not having it will want to tone it down to 2 syllable (maximum) words or he will have mental overload
Emotional damage
He’s an idiot! He’s always crying about Tesla! Last time he was crying about the Cybertruck!
Too much, did not read
I just bought some $TSLA calls for 6/2025 about 30 mins ago so when I saw your notification with this title, I'm going to take that as a good sign. :D
wtf sell those bruh we going down
bro is gonna have to get a real job soon if these views don’t go back up
His car is lowered. Of course camber is going to wear fast with only part of the tire contacting the pavement.
My car did this at factory ride height
5k miles per tire is wild 😂
It's just fucking insane, i have a Land Cruiser which is heavy and get 150,000KM on Mud Terrains.
Tesla ❤
I'm on board with the EV thing, but not Tesla. That being said, I hope this part allows you to keep the same tires for a longer period of time.
Sadly, it's only one car that have HEPA filters, guardian Mode, overheat protection
And for the EV thing, the only Heat pump with "Octavalve"
Other EVs are just basic with even no battery software
More videos with unplugged performance🤌
I owe 103k on my plaid and I'm being offered 61k. I'm still pissed... wanna buy out my tesla??!!!! You have the pockets 😅😢 sigh **
"Why I No Longer Hate Tesla" What does that even mean?
He hated Tesla, see his prior video:
* Do NOT Buy A Tesla, Sep 12, 2023, czcams.com/video/3GRt3d7C3I4/video.html
I was just talking to someone yesterday about Tesla and how it's nice they're doing all these new things but as a buyer you're getting an untested unfinished product half the time.
You should still hate Tesla since this part is an aftermarket part and Tesla has nothing to do with it. How has Tesla not recalled or addressed this issue whatsoever?
Damn I thought it was something good ,I clicked so I can hear you talk about saving the tires on your 100K toaster , Like your worried about tires give me a break, Go ahead tell us you need to save money for the rest of your million dollar car arsenal 😂
not cool
@@simonorr594 Click bait is definitely not cool
Tesla police cars .... going to be really interesting to see how these work out. Chasing bad guys in ICE cars ... whoops, I need to go charge ... 🤣

Next Gen. Tesla Roadster coming soon 2025 hopefully 😂❤
O wow
Vehicle Virgins Awesome Video I think it's awesome that Unplugged Performance has Rear Camber Arms for Most Teslas to help with Tire Wear
hm
The shit heaps cant be wheel aligned then is what your saying....?
Look out in the rear view mirror for the first Tesla Cybertruck Policecar and let the tires go for 10000 Miles …sorry Officer I have this new this scientific test of the tires running…I’ll stop when it’s done…
How do u add power to electric 😅?
Give motors more energy
The way Tesla does it... update the SW
You never did bro.
I feel a bit slighted , where's the famous outro Parker!
Amen
I love Tesla but man I'm surprised they haven't done more to improve the tire life
Plaid baby ⚡️🇺🇸
4680 Roadster is coming soon...
😂😂😂😂😂😂
❤
🥱
Why I no longer hate Tesla: The Tesla check came in
Lets goo 🤌🏽👏🏽
Came back after a long time, why is there a Tesla on a carguy's channel?
Bc its a car?
Bc its a car?
amen! a real car guy would play with this
@@FenrisufrHoward so a car guy is only allowed to like a certain type of car sounds like your not a car guy if so
tesla smesla--everything about YOU annoys me, Parker.
Do EV come pre-installed with rainbow flag bumper stickers?
You just saying this because you want more view on your video....no wonder people not watching your video anymore
Buttplugged performance
Can't stand Tesla. Promise never to drive one in my life.
Zero people care. Well, under 15k which is about 5k more views than you get with this drivel.
Then leave m8 no one is asking you to stay 😂
Yeah. Parker went to a top engineering school for mech eng. What u got retard bro?
This changes nothing!
Tbh … theyre overrated, build quality is crap & the EV movement is nonsense
So edgy
But it’s fast and cheap and better build quality than bmw Porsche etc
@@KCJbomberFTWnot at all better build quality than german brands
@@KCJbomberFTWyee you’ve never driven any of those if you think Porsches and bmw are built terrible
@@tonyself9417 you said they’re built terrible I said they’re okay and so is Tesla
Not the leather and shit like the chassis stiffness and reliability of all moving parts and buttons
I don't care what y'all say. EVs are great, and I believe its the future.
Tesla is the best car company ever no gas stations no oil changes no smog check no corrupt dealerships no catalytic converter no dealer mark up above MSRP
Tesla Plaid is 1050 horsepower at $90k
Right so if you take your Tesla to the track, you can set it up for track mode, yeah right sure shut up. This is stupid, I think Elon Musk knows what he's doing. The car weigh a shit ton because of the battery. That's why tires wear.
Sure....
Weight is a factor but hard acceleration is another. Even if you don't spin the tires they are wearing faster during hard acceleration due to the amount of load the Plaid creates. In the case of the rear tires, the plaids come with a lot of negative camber which on any car is going to wear the inside of the tires more.
