This worked for me! Thank you!
It took a couple of tries to get it perfectly flat. Here are some tips:
• Fully pop out the two side panel pieces, not just halfway. This helps when positioning the tire.
• Remove the spare tire from the bag, place it in position, and then all panels back.
Good tips. I was able to keep the spare in the case but it is easier if you take it out.
this looks like the best spare install i've seen. other videos show massive amounts of cutting, which i don't want.
I agree. I did not want to do any cutting. My method allows you to return the sub trunk if you want.
@@geteducatedbyTed unfortunately it's not going to work. i have a 7-seater and there's a metal bar where that foam is located on yours.
As a Uber driver in NYC this really helps, i like having a spare, along with rechargeable air compressor and few other Emergency equipment. Thumb up Sir I'll be doing this hack in spring or once the weather gets warmer.
I seen videos of people cutting it up, but I’ll just take this route instead, great vid!
I agree. If you don't want to keep the spare, just put the tub and the foam back. No cutting needed!
Hey just did the retro fit myself, it seems the half closer to the seat sticks out just a half inch, is that what you experienced?
@@Shaojeemy At first yes the front panel cover seemed to stick up a small amount. I actually put my portable charger, the adapters and a jacket so the front of the spare tire goes up a bit, this seems to level out the trunk. Another thing you can try is to rotate the tire and see if maybe the cover is narrower.
THANK YOU very much for this solution. Been carrying my Modern spare for a year. Incidentally, I got my first puncture yesterday. Perfect timing as I pulled into home.
It was a self tapping panel screw. So I was able to plug it successfully.
We are so lucky to have Modern Spares, I was hunting for a 2t Jack to carry in the car, let alone a suitable spare that worked. Although I am in New Zealand Modern Spare were wonderfully helpful. Several months after getting my Model 3, Model Y's became available (X Shanghai) I traded Model 3 for the Y.
Modern Spare just sold me the correct tyre for the Model Y, the Rim is the same as the M3.
So glad this was helpful. I try to create content that educates and is helpful for others.
By far the best way I've seen for fitting the modern spare in the trunk (with not needing to cut). Took some readjusting the way the foam pushes back / enables the tire to sit, but in the end got it to sit pretty flat (and accomplished the vital goal of the wife not being able to notice, especially with a trunk floor mat on top). Also have the mobile charger and a couple blankets holding up the tire a touch. Being wintertime in my location, using a heat gun on the foam helped getting it a bit more pliable and being able to adjust.
Agree that this is the best method in case you want to go back to having the sub trunk. Glad you liked my suggestion.
Just happen to stumble upon this video. This is genius. I have a Modern Spare and just throw it in the back all the time and unload it when I get home. I'm going to do this in the spring since I have a road trip coming up. WOW...!!!
Please let me know how it worked out. I am wondering if the Texas built MY can also accept the Modern Spare.
they should make something to replace the sub trunk so that it fits the spare and allows you to store things
That is an interesting product idea. I know an accessory maker who I will run that by.
Makes you wonder why Tesla didn’t just put that there in the first place
"The best part is no part". Apparently, some expert, reckons an overwhelming statistic shows a high proportion of cars wrecked have brand new unused spares attached.
Many more manufacturers have chosen to forgo providing a sore tire as well, not just Tesla.
I have 20" tires on my MY. The Modern Spare that you will order will fit your tire size.
Cool I have the 18 inch one. but I need to get my wife for one for her Y. Will that work on the model 3
@@LaJuanHughes I am not sure if it works on Model 3. You can follow the similar steps and see how much room is in the sub trunk. Let me know!
@@geteducatedbyTed I will have to try it and let you know.
@@LaJuanHughes did you try fitting one of the in model 3 subtrunk area? I want to do the same and was curious
@@ozanghost I see if I can try it this weekend.
May I make a suggestion? Find a way to secure the spare with a strap or something so it can't move. I once watched a you lady driving a car hit a pole at a decent speed...the unsecured doughnut spare in her trunk was ejected through the trunk (popped it open) and went rolling down the street. It was shockingly destructive. She didn't roll it either.
I will look in the lower trunk for a hook or a way to secure it. Thank you for the suggestion. I will create a video once I find a way.
I made a video of how to tie it down. Thanks for the suggestion - ruclips.net/video/T2RGlUX1yCg/видео.htmlsi=swlkVPFqCZWUDn2B
Nice solution! Thanks!
You are welcome!
Just to confirm, the carpet cover would sit flat over the tire then? I've seen a couple of other RUclips videos where they have to chop sections of the interior out to get the tire to sit so the carpeted floorboard rests flat.
As I mentioned, I do have to prop up the spare closest to the bumper and then the floor is flat. If you have a Modern Spare, I highly suggest trying this. No cutting needed.
Just wanted to add if you want to go back to the sub trunk, what I show you allows that to happen. Here is how - ruclips.net/video/QIBgH6QbaLE/видео.htmlsi=oHfV4EuB90i3o5tp
Looks like a good way to void the warranty. But really if there is just enough space for an emergency spare, Tesla should at least provide a recess so one can be put in. They could even sell them.
I agree they should provide one or sell one. I don't see how what I've done voids any warranty. I just made a video on how to return your subtrunk to the original condition - ruclips.net/video/QIBgH6QbaLE/видео.htmlsi=jU6M0Ba0ohswni3d
That u will never use and u need a low level jack and lifting puck not to mention lug wrench
The Modern Spare comes with a jack and wrench. This solution is like insurance, hopefully you never need it.
Can last foam be also removed instead of pushing it? If you already removed two pieces, why not to do the same with third and keep all original parts like new?
Good question. I did not want to remove the carpet but I suppose you can.
Look up collapsable spare tire. No modifications would be needed to fit a spare.
If they make one for Tesla's please share the link
So I’m confused, do you put the storage bin back in underneath the tire?
By the storage bin, I think you are talking about the tub that I pulled out. That stays out of the car. I made a video showing putting the tub (bin) back in, just in case you don't want to carry the spare. Hopefully this clears it up - ruclips.net/video/QIBgH6QbaLE/видео.htmlsi=oHfV4EuB90i3o5tp
Great video. You’ve inspired me to do this 👍! Where did you put the scissor jack and tools that come with this kit?
When I ordered the modern spare, it came with it as a kit.
@@geteducatedbyTedAha! I learned from your answer to my question about excess road noise that you were able to store everything together, using bubble wrap and old clothes to make everything more secure.
Great video! Went from a Model 3LR where the Modern Spare easily mounted in the upper portion of the trunk, to not knowing where to mount it in my new MYP. Any noticeable increase in interior road noise levels now that the padded/carpeted sub trunk section isn't there?
When I first removed the carpet it did sound a bit louder. I ended up putting some foam insulation around the jack and wrench of the modern spare. Can't tell a difference now. Glad you liked the video.
good ideas 💡💡💡, Might try it on model X'))) Thank You
Let me know and send a pic if it works.
As I saw X has enough under trunk space. Nothing should be removed or puched.
Thank you for your sharing your solution for storing a spare tire in the Model Y. My Modern Spare tire just arrived today. I tried to fold the shallow part of the sub-trunk, but it does not fold enough no matter how hard I tried. How did you do that?
By the shallow part, I think you mean the area closest to the hatch lock. That has very little to squeeze. You have to push back the hard foam that is closest to the back seats.
I managed to fold the shallow part of the sub-trunk by following Ted's technique. My spare tire did not come with the cover, so the tire had a lot of friction on the bottom of the shallow sub-trunk. I found an Ikea plastic bag that was large enough to cover half of the spare tire. I pushed the spare tire and was able to wedge it in. It looks really good after installing the trim, the trunk cover, and the trunk floor mat. Your solution is genius, Ted. I now feel much better knowing that my Model Y has a spare tire and it is out sight. I will be storing the large sub-trunk container in a safe place.
@@nebularealm I am glad you like the solution. I agree it is a big piece of mind relief knowing you have a spare. Glad this helped!
@@nebularealm I'm sure you've looked but Amazon sells very inexpensive covers for tires. I found one with a very long velcro section where the tread would rest. That allows you to fit various size tires in it and then pull tight for a proper fit.
Does deflating the spare make it any easier? Inflate when needed
No I asked Modern Spare and the tire really does not compress much. It may help if you take ~ 10 psi or so out. However, you don't want the tire completely deflated as it will deform.
But the most important part......How do you anchor the loose spare tire from smacking you in the head in a crash beside crossing your fingers? Where's the anchor point?
The Modern Spare fits tightly in the sub trunk. The only way I would see it coming out is if you were in a roll over accident. If you want, you can tie the tire down or put a strap across it. If you are in the bay area, I'd be happy to show you my setup.
@@geteducatedbyTed Thanks but NO Thanks, I will never set foot into Kalifornistan. Nope never again.
I show you how to tie down the spare - ruclips.net/video/T2RGlUX1yCg/видео.htmlsi=swlkVPFqCZWUDn2B
How thick is your spare?? My modern spare is 6”. Don’t see how this will go in without cutting the back piece. Not sure it will lay flat enough. Maybe your model is different. I have a Y 2023. I don’t have the vertical piece that you pulled out of the tub.
My Model Y Perf is a 2022 built in Fremont. I ordered the Modern Spare for the Y.
I just measured and my tire is 6” wide
Does this make the vehicle noisier, especially when driving at highway speeds? Seems like you're removing at least one big piece of noise dampening foam. Thanks!
I have not noticed it is louder but I also have a jacket and some clothes under the tire. The trick was to ensure the jack and such don't rattle around. I used a bit of bubble wrap for that
Nice 👍
Did you notice any difference in road noise after doing this?
I did not notice more road noise, but I did use some clothes and bubble wrap to ensure the jack and wrench were not hitting each other or the tire.
Hi. I got a slightly different spare which is 155 width instead of 145. Do you think it will still fit there? I'm considering changing it if needed :)
Since the tire is a bit wider it may not allow the floor to be completely flat. You may have to put a spacer on the edge of the floor to level it. But maybe if you don't have it in a carrying case, it may lay flat. Keep me posted if you try it.
Can do it in model 3 ?
I don't have a Model 3 to try it. Anyone else try it for a Model 3?
1s that a 19 or 18.
Sorry, see my comment above
So sillly that tesla didn’t design this just so u can store a tire
Many companies are not including spare tires. Part of it is cost savings, part weight savings and part reality that flats are rare
I sold tesla and bought a ford lightning so I am selling a modern spare, never used for $200
If you are in the bay area, post it on our slack channel.
Переверни запаску и складывай всё во внутрь
Yes you may be able to do that, but the rim offset may have it stick up a bit.
