WE INSTALL 4 SPARE TIRES ONTO A TESLA MODEL 3 PERFORMANCE

EV Channels Review

This video documents an extreme stress test of Modern Spare's spare tire kits for the Tesla Model 3 Performance. The reviewer, Kyle, installs four compact spare tires and subjects them to rigorous track driving, including hot laps and extensive drifting. Initially, the reviewer expresses surprise at the amount of grip and composure the spare tires offer, even in Track Mode, noting that the car feels surprisingly capable and not significantly slower than on factory tires during a timed lap (losing only about 5 seconds on a mile-long circuit). However, the limitations become apparent during prolonged drifting, where the tires quickly degrade, showing cords after approximately two miles of abuse. The test concludes with a further shredding of the remaining tires on a skid pad. The overall verdict is that while the spare tires are surprisingly capable for basic functionality and getting a stranded driver to safety, they are not designed for performance driving or prolonged abuse, as evidenced by their rapid deterioration under track conditions. The reviewer is impressed by their resilience given the extreme circumstances.
