  • The Pewag Servo RS Self-Tensioning Snow Tire Chains # PWRS76 are a fit for size 235/45-18 tires, which are found on many models of 2018 Tesla Model 3.

  • Are Longer Straps Needed for Yakima HangOut on 2018 Tesla Model S
  • To install the Yakima HangOut 2 Bike Rack # Y02637 on your 2018 Tesla Model S you will just need to make the Joe Measurement 14-7/8" and then change the hooks to anchor mode - the straps are long enough though and won't need to be exchanged for longer ones. I'm linking a video I made for the FullBack where I demonstrate what the anchor mode is at the 3:24 minute mark. You will need to remove the bike rack prior to opening up your hatchback. This is the case for about 99% of trunk mount...

  • Does the Yakima GrandTour # YA74FR and # YA84FR Fit a 2021 Tesla Model Y?
  • According to my research, you either have a factory roof rack on your 2021Tesla Model Y or a bare roof. If you happen to have a factory roof rack, the Yakima GrandTour 16 # YA74FR and the GrandTour 18 # YA84FR fit your roof as long as your crossbars do not exceed 3-1/2" wide x 1-11/16" tall. I recommend measuring your crossbars to make sure they fit within these parameters. Also, in order to determine whether you can fully open your rear hatch with the box installed, I suggest measuring...

  • Correct Trailer Hitch Fitment for 2020 Tesla Model Y
  • The correct trailer hitch for your 2020 Tesla Model Y is the EcoHitch Invisi Trailer Hitch Receiver # EH39FR. The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT58MR you're looking at fits the 2021 and newer models. I did notice in the Draw-Tite instructions that it mentions fitting a 2020 model but when I reached out to my contact they said it's a misprint that they will be fixing. The EcoHitch has a tongue weight capacity of 350 lbs and a towing weight capacity of 3,500 lbs which seem...

  • 2022 Tesla Model 3 Stealth Hitches Correct Fitment
  • The correct Stealth Hitches that fits your 2022 Tesla Model 3 is part # 391TES317 if you plan on only using the hitch for accessories like a bike rack or cargo carrier, or the part # 391TES317T if you plan on using the hitch for towing as well. The receiver that comes with the Stealth Hitches has been tested and approved for the lighter duty of accessories which is why the Stealth Hitches ball mount kit is needed for towing. Attached is an installation video of this hitch being installed...

  • Kuat Transfer V2 3-Bike Rack vs. RockyMounts WestSlope 3-Bike Rack
  • Those are a couple of great options you mentioned, but between the RockyMounts WestSlope 3-Bike Rack # RKY10223 and the Kuat Transfer V2 3-Bike Rack # KU24FR, I would definitely go with the Kuat Transfer V2 # KU24FR. There are a number of reasons for this, including ease of use, clearances, and fit of bikes. Starting with ease of use, while the WestSlope uses a threaded hitch pin that requires you to use a ratchet like # PTW38106-24 to install, with the Transfer V2 you simply slide its...

  • What is Difference Between Stealth and Curt/etrailer Hitch for 2020 Tesla Model 3
  • The big advantage you get from the Stealth hitch part # 391TES317 is the detachable lower hitch opening which gives you ability to have a totally invisible setup when that's desired. For some people this is a really appealing and great option as some people REALLY don't like the look of trailer hitches. For others the mostly hidden Curt # C45FR or etrailer # e33ZR is the better option since the cost is less and the hitch still functions well. With these hitches only the hitch opening is visible.

  • Recommended Bike Rack for 2 Aventon Aventure Step-Through E-Bikes
  • For your two Aventon Aventure fat tire ebikes, I recommend the Yakima OnRamp Bike Rack item # Y36FR as it will meet all your requirements. The maximum weight capacity is 66 lbs per bike, it has a 2" hitch for connection to your 2" receiver. The loading ramp is included and can be stored on the rack itself during use. While it is a little more difficult to load the wider tire bikes since the ramp is narrow you can still use it. You can secure your bikes in place by the seat posts since...

  • Can Light Kit be Added to Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack
  • You'd potentially be modifying the Thule EasyFold XT # TH903202 to the point of voiding the warranty but you could use the LED kit part # 98174LED to add the lights and then use the bracket # BK70BB and you'd be set since it sounds like your vehicle has a 4-way installed on it already.

Once installed, you will have a 4-way to power your trailer's...

  • Will the Konig Self-Tensioning, Low-Profile Snow Tire Chains Scratch my Rims/Wheels During Use
  • While there is no assurance that there will be no damage to the wheels when using the Konig Self-Tensioning, Low-Profile Snow Tire Chains part # TH2004205117 I can tell you that when installed and adjusted properly I have not seen any issues with this. These are as you said a confirmed fit for your 2020 Tesla Model Y with the 255/40R20 tires. On the other hand if the chains are not properly installed or adjusted they could move around enough to cause you issues. If you ensure you have...

  • Can Hole Cut in 2020 Tesla Model 3 be Covered When Not In Use
  • A hole does get cut in the lower fascia of your 2020 Tesla Model 3 to install the EcoHitch # 306-X7373 but we offer a cover for the hole that you can use when the hitch isn't in use. For that you'd just need the part # 306-XA2002. I attached a picture of what it looks like installed for you to check out as well. I attached an install video for the hitch and a review video for the cover for you to check out as well.
