XYZ Racing Drag Racing Coilovers — Tesla MODEL S Plaid + (4WD) 2021-2026

The Model S Plaid + arrives from the factory with three motors sending output through all four contact patches, and a kerb weight north of two tonnes sitting low over a flat battery pack. At a standing start that combination doesn’t struggle for traction so much as it needs the weight put in the right place at the right instant – which is exactly what a drag-specific coilover setting is built to do.

The XYZ Racing Drag Racing coilover for this chassis lets you set front and rear ride height independently, shifting static weight onto the driven wheels before the car ever leaves the line. For 0-400 runs in a 4WD platform this heavy, that’s the difference between clean, repeated launches and wasted wheelspin off the line.

What this coilover does for your 2021-2026 Tesla Model S Plaid + (4WD)

Set the front lower and the rear a touch higher and you load the Plaid’s motor output onto the tyre contact patch the instant torque arrives, rather than after a beat of wheelspin. That matters on a car whose electric torque delivery has no throttle lag to mask a poorly weighted launch – all three motors are live from 0rpm, so any slack in tyre compression shows up immediately as wasted rubber and a slower 60-foot time. Firming the rear and controlling squat keeps the battery pack’s mass working for the driven wheels instead of rocking rearward and unloading the front axle mid-launch. Across repeat 0-400 passes the same setting holds, so the Plaid + leaves the line consistently instead of drifting as ride height settles.

About the Drag Racing coilover

This is a dedicated straight-line setting, not a track or fast-road spring rate carried over and relabelled. It’s built for 0-400 metre runs across FWD, RWD and 4WD platforms, and the adjustment works by shifting how much static weight sits over the wheels actually putting power down the moment the car launches. On a 4WD car like the Plaid + that means loading all four corners rather than just the rear, forcing greater compression into the tyre contact patch at the exact instant the motors go to work. What the setup is chasing is less time spent with a wheel spinning free before it bites, and a chassis that stays settled at three-figure speeds rather than getting light or nervous as the run develops. It’s a setting for drivers running competitive or semi-competitive 0-400 times, not a dual-purpose road spring.

Fitment for the Tesla MODEL S Plaid + (4WD) (2021-2026)

Built specifically for the Model S Plaid + in its 4WD tri-motor configuration, chassis code TE05, covering the 2021 to 2026 model years. Confirm your Plaid + is the 4WD variant before ordering, as the weight-transfer setting is calibrated around power being delivered through all four wheels rather than two.
