Before Replacing Tires for Noise, Check the Door and Pillar Seams
Rumble that changes with the pavement and wind near a door can be different problems. ProGuard is a model-specific sealing option for covered locations. Start with the sound before spending on the wrong fix.

If you have been comparing quiet-rated tires, pause long enough to identify the sound. Tires can contribute to road noise. They are not the only thing you hear in the cabin.
On a normal drive, notice whether the low rumble changes with road texture and whether a separate whistle seems to come from a door or pillar. You may have more than one source to address.
The useful goal is hearing a passenger and the audio comfortably. You do not need to blame your ears or assume the car has one universal fault.
Have a new rattle, damaged seal or unexplained leak inspected. For wind at a covered seam, compare the secondary kit’s fitting locations with your car.
A Tire Change and a Seal Kit Do Different Jobs
A different tire can change tire-related sound. A seal works at the place it is fitted. Neither category proves the other is irrelevant.
If a previous change helped only part of the noise, that is a reason to separate the remaining sound rather than dismiss the result.
Before buying the next item, ask which sound it is meant to reduce and where the work takes place.

Where ProGuard Fits Into That Decision
ProGuard is listed as six tailored rubber strips with model-specific variants. It adds secondary sealing at the locations shown in the fitting guide.
Choose the exact vehicle year and version, then identify each piece before applying adhesive. Do not turn the kit’s piece count into a diagnosis of every sound in the car.
A universal roll leaves the fit decision with you.The strip needs the right profile, dimensions and placement for the seam. ProGuard offers a different starting point: shaped pieces for the selected vehicle and a fitting guide. That is the reason to compare it, without assuming a cheaper strip will fail.
The Listed Locations to Check
Listed contact areas. Review the door, pillar, trunk and hood positions in the selected fitting guide.
Exact vehicle version. Match model, build year and refresh before ordering.
Careful preparation. Follow the guide and check door/hatch movement after fitting.

Installation: Prepare, Match and Fit
1
Prepare and match. Identify each piece using the selected vehicle’s guide, then clean and dry the contact surfaces before peeling the backing.
2
Fit each piece. Follow the diagram for placement and pressure. Work carefully around corners and check that the seal sits where the guide shows.
3
Check closure. Make sure the doors and hatch move normally. On your next normal drive, notice wind at the fitted seams separately from tire rumble.

How To Install
Park in shade so the adhesive sets clean. Wipe each gap dry. Peel and press, working the doors, then the pillars, then the trunk and hood. Let it set before the first highway run. A full video tutorial and install guide are included, plus a free Tesla Secrets e-book.

My car is the new model 3 Performance which is already very quiet compared to the previous model 3 but I still noticed an improvement with less road noise.

A repeat ProGuard purchase
“This time, I decided to go all-in and purchase the additional roof kit as well”. Scott Eveler, published ProGuard review. His report includes a separate roof kit; it does not isolate ProGuard’s effect.
Results depend on the vehicle, installation and sound source. Published reviews are individual experiences, not a typical decibel guarantee.
How do I choose the right fit?
Select your exact model, build year and refresh. Ask TeslaHubs before ordering if your vehicle version is unclear.
How should I prepare?
Read the guide, identify each piece and prepare the surfaces. Plan around 15 minutes, allowing more time if placement needs clarification.
What about removal and vehicle warranty?
Follow removal guidance and ask Tesla about vehicle-warranty circumstances. Do not assume any adhesive always removes without marks.
How should I compare alternatives?
Compare the actual work or fitting locations, not just price or piece count. Tire changes, repair, panel treatment and extra seals can address different concerns.
What are the return conditions?
Request a return within 30 days of delivery. Items must be unused, unworn, tagged and in their original packaging. Return shipping is customer-paid unless faulty or incorrect. Check eligibility before installation.
