I had been a Q2 '24 Estimate delivery for R1S with AT Wheels (chose due to tire options, not planning much off roading other than the occasional trail head).

The Store options all have the All Terrain upgrade so around $2k more than my config. Not the end of the world though I don't really need the underbody protection or full size spare. Any other benefits to that pkg ?

I assume the estimated delivery is reasonably accurate ? I'd be tempted to wait for my config to save the money otherwise if R1S's are arriving earlier than estimates.

My Only other gripe is the extra range dual motor offers. Feels odd to be paying less for a more expensive configuration that I don't need. Alas, I'm not alone there.

Any other Store Access considerations ? I'm happy to at least have the opportunity.

Congrats on the shop access! I’m hoping to get there at some point in the not-too-distant future. My latest estimate is 4Q 2023. Out of curiosity, when did you order?

I’m fairly certain that regardless of what configuration you have now you will not be able to get the 20” wheels without the RUS and spare tire when your final configuration comes due. Might as well get in on a store build early rather than waiting to get the same thing.

@Thedude what makes you believe they'll force an upgrade to get the configured 20" wheels ? They at least allowed it when I set my configuration a few months ago (sorry, forgot the official step name but when I had to confirm it to get the delivery est). Would certainly suck to wait it out only to be forced to buy the all terrain pkg.
