- EVfixMe of Costa Mesa, California walks you step by step through the installation of N2itive's full acceleration shudder and inner tire wear kit. Available at N2itive.me This kit helps to reduce the extreme angle and binding of the CV joints which eventually wears them down and causes the Tesla Model X and S to shudder during acceleration. The kit will also allow you to get a perfect wheel alignment and completely eliminate the dangerous rear inner tire wear that Teslas are known for all while keeping your alignment with Tesla's factory specification. It includes the SX-1 rear adjustable camber arms, TSX-1 rear adjustable toe arms, and RSX-1 lowering links with adjustment wrenches.

Wow! Very thourough explanation. Thanks!
Amazing how the N2itive material looks much more robust then the OEM
I think it even looks better than UP and MPP's!
Gd stuff if planning to own the model x for long
I think you switched out bolts for the camber arm. The 15mm one should go to the outside and have a flat threaded end. The inner bolt should be 18mm and tapered at end.
Just dropped my model X off today at Valley frame in Canoga Park where they're going to install the Kit but not the lowering links as I really don't want it lowered and a firmer ride. Looking forward to a 50% Improvement on Tire tread life
How did it go?
@@CorporateGrunt significant Improvement. After they were done installing the kit they did say hey by the way I don't know how much more life you got on these tires as the inner tread was starting to get a bit on the thin side oh, well it's been a year later and I still have the exact same tires on the back and I drive 6 days a week.
Did you have gas pedal vibration? And did it go away after?
@@HabibiGolf no my gas pedal has never done that before since I've owned it. Or the brake pedal. My only reason for doing the upgrade was to prolong the rear tires. And it worked out great, much better tire wear and life span.
Hi.
Please recommend me the place to install "Alignment Kit 1 - Acceleration Shudder & Inner Tire Wear - Tesla Model X & S". I am living in Fair Lawn, NJ
Not sure if this would have helped to avoided my problem.
Purchased Michelin tires for MX (w/ Staggered wheels), hoping for smoother & quieter road noise. After a 1200 mile trip, the wheels were ruined, aggressive inside tread wear. Tesla service check alignment, which was reported like most customer complaints to be "within specs", & explained that the auto-lowering of the suspension (a speed-based setting that can be adjusted or turned off) increases camber (wheel angle). Since Michelins are a "softer rubber" tire, it likely wore faster than the stock Conti's. Neither Michelin or Tesla offered any warranty, so $2K gone because of a stupid setting to improve aerodynamics on the highway.
Just one of the many reasons I love upgrading to an Audi e-tron.
Yes absolutely. Our kits are meant exactly for this problem. Only 1200 miles though is really fast tire wear!
@N2ITIVE Appreciate the response, sounded like it.
I actually had the Michelins for 2000 miles, the initial 800 were mostly city.
It was only after that All-highway 1200 miles that I felt & heard the tire issue. First stop Discount Tire, identified "cupping" and aggressive inner tread wear, no idea why, but all 4 so not defects.
Since '16 Model X, only Tesla had proper weight-rated Mich's, so Big $$ from them.
Tesla figured out the camber / soft rubber issue, claimed no history of this before, since issue was vehicle that no Mich warranty, and we all know about the degradation of Tesla customer support.
Since Staggered wheels, only side-side rotation possible, which would result in my tires continue to wear abnormally & unsafely.
Only joy I got was that Tesla was buying back my MX anyway, so when '17 arrived I had them put the crap tires on return MX, Orig Conti's on '17 MX, and stored the New Conti's for later.
Despite advanced Driver Assistance Tech and starting the EV reform, what a disappointment they have become for Premium Quality vehicle production.
My eTron lacks advanced tech and range, but the build, handling, and ride quality is 3x Tesla.
@@old-n-gettinolder That's interesting about your Etron. I don't know much about them but it's nice to hear positive reviews about other EV's out there.
Did Tesla buy back your Tesla because of issues?
What length extensions did you stack to torque down the outside camber arm bolts?
Evening, after couple day searching back and forth, I like to install your kit to fix my MX 17 issue. My question is will I order the kit and bring it to you for installation or I just drop my Mx off your shop and you guys take care of it. Either way can you tell me how much does it cost(pm me if it is sensitive lol) i am from san diego. Thank you and have a good night
Hi Thanh, I'm not able to pm you through youtube but you can see the kit and pricing here: n2itive.me/product/n2itive-acceleration-shudder-inner-tire-wear-elimination-kit-tesla-model-s-x/ We can either ship it to you or we will have it ready for you at EVfixMe when you arrive. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Thank you.
Hi N2ITIVE, seem like parts are back order for Alignment Kit 1. When you do you think they will be available to order. Thanks!
Hi Calvin,
You can actually purchase them now. They will be here at the end of the month. The discount is good until tuesday. You can see more details on the product page. Thank you very much.

Seems like this is a Band-Aid to fix a problem that should've been addressed by Tesla. Tesla should know about this premature tire wear and simply fix this issue from the factory. I understand wanting to lower the car and it's great to have those links but the alignment issues is something that should be addressed by the manufacturer. I love Tesla and have a new model Y performance and fixing to upgrade to a plaid model S, so I'm not hating on the brand. Just seems like something Tesla could fix before these things roll out.
Do you know of any shops that do this in the Washington DC, Maryland, Virginia area?
I just responded to your email. Thank you for your interest in our products.
is there no way to maintain the factory ride height, but reduce the stresses on the axles?
what's the ground clearance on factory height vs with the lowering kit?
That's a good question, but no there isn't. It's the ride height that determines the angle of the half shafts. Of course you could be super gentle on acceleration especially on turns . That would be helpful.
Installing the kit drops the car down about 3/4 of an inch.
After I install all these, do I still have the option to lower or raise the car height remotely?
Yes, the air suspension will still work as normal. Only now all settings would be a bit lower.
Where to get this in Toronto, Ontario, Canada and who can install it for me? Right now, I pay 2000 dollars for tires every 10,000 KM.
Can you please reach out to our customer support at the following link? They can recommend an installer for you. Thank you very much.

Does anyone make this kit for the plaid?
Hi Richard, our adjustable camber arms are now in sale for the plaid. If you combine them with our plaid lowering links then it will give you the same result.
n2itive.me/product/tartan-sx-p2-tesla-model-s-x-plaid-long-range-drop-forged-adjustable-rear-upper-control-camber-arms-links-kit/
Got a 2014 p85+ And i want to lower it! Do i need the full kit or only chamber arm and the links?
With a 2014 you should get camber and toe if you lower it. Otherwise you will most likely run out of toe out.
We have the whole assembly together as one kit here: n2itive.me/product/n2itive-acceleration-shudder-inner-tire-wear-elimination-kit-tesla-model-s-x/
@@N2ITIVEdesigns Thanks for the quick reply!
@@daniellele9634 you're very welcome.
These fit or needed in the 2022 model S refresh?
Hi Derrick, right now we only have lowering links for the plaid.
n2itive.me/product/rsx-1-plaid-performance-ride-height-adjustment-lowering-link-set-brackets-for-tesla-s-x/
We are coming out with rear adjustable camber arms soon. Currently even the Plaid does not have adjustable camber in the rear. So there is still potential for inner tire wear.
what are the dimensions of the screw that needs to be replaced?
Don't remember the exact dimensions offhand but the kit comes with two new ones
How low is safe without needing toe arms? Don’t want to have to cut bolts
That's a good question. Every Tesla is going to be a little bit different so I can't give you an exact number. That being said, oftentimes you don't need to cut the bolts. Sometimes they can be wiggled out. If they do have to be cut, it's generally not that difficult. As long as you have a fresh blade you can cut through the bolt pretty quickly.
Any shop to install these in LA/CA?
Yes, where are you located?
@@N2ITIVEdesigns torrance
Do u sale bushings?
Sorry for the delay. We don't sell individual bushings only the fully adjustable control arms. thank you.
Any installers in the UK please?
Yes we do. Please reach out to our customer support here. n2itive.me/contact-us/
ETA for 2021 Plaid arms still July?
Yes, still July for the Plaid rear camber arms.
Hi Kunai,
They've been pushed back a bit but the discounted presale is happening now.
n2itive.me/product/tartan-sx-p2-tesla-model-s-x-plaid-long-range-drop-forged-adjustable-rear-upper-control-camber-arms-links-kit/
I just recently replaced my 2 front tires due to wires showing and bad wear on the inner part of the tires will this setup fix that ussue as well? Thanks
Generally there is enough adjustability in the front of a Tesla already to bring a situation like yours back into correct alignment with the OEM parts.
@@DonPtashne Really? I will have to take a look at that. However, you still have the problem with shrudder and axle wear issues correct?
@@DSRTSLA Right, this kit will help with premature axle wear and rear inner tire wear.
How will this affect ride quality? Will it ride rougher after the lowering to negate the shudder issue? Thanks
@@jsf644j it's a bit of a trade off. The ride is not as soft as before but you do get improved handling and responsiveness in addition to eliminating inner rear tire wear and reducing wear on your half-shafts.
How is the ride comfort arter installing this? @n2itive
On the Plaid and Long Range it's phenomenal. Tesla's newly-designed suspension rides really well even lowered.
@@N2ITIVEdesigns And on the older x? Mine is late 2017. Just order the alighment kit with lowering links.
@@jantohamne3886 The older X is a bit firmer ride so we recommend setting the links to the - 4 setting to keep it from getting too firm.
Yes, alignment kit 1 is what we recommend in your case. Let me know if you have any questions about it. Thank you.
n2itive.me/product/n2itive-acceleration-shudder-inner-tire-wear-elimination-kit-tesla-model-s-x/
So l ve just installed the alighment kit för the X and its like a new car. The alighment setting wasnt that easy,and the guys worked on it for a couple of hours. Now its more steady driving and it feels much tighter.
Greetings from Stockholm
@@jantohamne3886 Thank you so much for your feedback. I'm glad you're enjoying the kit! Let me know if I can ever do anything for you. Thank you.
No need to wear a face mask for thumbnail (or at all, for that matter)… come on guys.
