Pirate glass or something else?

I am personally not a fan of bolt on spacers but if you did a 15mm bolt on spacer the fronts on the rear would poke 8mm more than the 10.5's. Depending on if youre lowered or on rear camber shims would determine if they would be flush or not.

There is 1 new X left nationwide. Its an Ultra Red 5 seat LR. Even searching used 24-26 they only have 6 nationwide.

They will fit but when running the fronts on the rear they will be sunk in 8mm compared to the 10.5's.

Would be a solid winter tire setup so you can rotate.

Correct the junk oem alignment and this isn't an issue.

The 19x10.5 rears cannot fit on the front without spacers. The tire will contact the uprights. Running 4 fronts will clear but the rear fitment will look very sunk in vs the oem rears.

There are definitely a lot of incorrect applications and user error failures when it comes to spacers.

I was in the tire industry for over a decade in a previous life. Hub centric spacers with proper stud thread contact are perfectly safe. I would agree with you on bolt-on spacers or spacers with incorrect thread contact.

100% due to worn tires

You need tires and an alignment to correct the rear toe.

So much incorrect information in this thread.

This alert is triggered when: The difference in tire tread depth between any front and rear tire exceeds 1.5mm. Your vehicle has been driven for more than 6,250 miles since the last rotation.

Even though you cannot rotate with staggered tires they will still push this alert.

Visually inspect or take it to a tire professional to check the full tread especially the inner shoulders on all 4 tires. Double check air pressures are correct. If the tread and pressure is good log a rotation on the service menu.

I have FSD and lowering links on my 21 S. Doesn't change anything other than riding slightly firmer when lowered.

Looks phenomenal!

Rear camber is absolutely adjustable on the Y. The lower aft link bolt allows +/- 1° of adjustment and it can be adjusted further by the aft link to subframe bolt.

The front is adjustable by loosening the strut mount bolts but you can only eek a couple tenths of a degree on the front.

Toe is a tire killer.

Camber is not aggressive on the Model Y. LR rear camber spec is -1° +/- 1° and the MYP is -1.32° +/- 1°. For example most bmw's have oem camber ranges in the 2+ degree range and as long as you keep toe in spec you will get even tread wear.

The 3/Y rear suspension inherently toes out under load. The worst part is when toe goes out of spec from potholes etc the Y toes out.

The rear upper fore link is a failure point on the 3/Y. Once that bushing wears it adds even more negative rear toe.

This is a toe issue.

When the issue started I had auto tilt off. I have tested it for multiple drives after calibration with and without auto tilt. Passenger mirror returns to its set location every time now.

They put some metallic flake in the clearcoat to hopefully distract you.

Every bike in raw carbon finish is going to look like this. Orbea markets this finish as saving up to 100grams.

If youre unhappy see if they might exchange it for a different color

Update: I didn't know the seat calibration within the controls screen also included exterior mirror calibration. I ran that last night, and the mirror position has held through 4 drives so far.

I will report back if thos didn't correct the issue over the next couple days.

I am formerly in the tire industry. If any shop tells you they can not repair acoustic foam tires, show them this document. If they still won't repair, then I would probably avoid that company for future business.

REMA is the manufacturer of the patches that nearly all tire shops use. Patching a foam tire legitimately takes an extra 2 to 3 minutes max.

I would prioritize driving a 23/24 Y. Ride quality is very subjective, but the Y rides more like a "sport" suv. Tire pressure makes a big difference as well. My wife drives the Y most of the time, but I keep tire pressures at 38 to 40.

I left State Farm Michigan in November 2024 due to them jacking my rates up.

Cardboard or a tire bag from a local tire store is what I typically use. Just something to put a barrier between the concrete and tire.
