And yet my S came with Falken Sincera (apparently 75,000 mi) tires that, other than being not the quietest rubber on earth, have been around a race track a few times, waded through a few inches of Chicago snow, and deal with the everyday "dodge dive dip dodge" nature of Atlanta driving no problem at up to 45MPG.
I have to add BFT blocks and 20mm spacers to avoid rubbing it looks better than stocks
I have the Falkens and I couldn't be happier with them. I've been able to use them on dry road, wet road, sand and rocks and they just grip. And they're quieter on the highway than the Goodyear Wranglers they replaced.
I put Falken Wildpeak 235's on my '09 Liberty back in April and I'm really happy with them. Great traction off-road and quiet enough to be my daily drive. Would highly recommend them.
I have a RWD LR Model 3 so my reply is based solely on this. I have never considered any other EV so I can't tell you about them.
\- I drive my son all over Ontario, Quebec, and the northern US for his sports year round. Sometimes to very rural areas. You'd be surprised where you come across charging stations.
\- You can change your habits to allow more efficiency in the winter: schedule your charging to complete around the time you plan to leave, try to make sure your battery is warm when you drive (see first point), always make sure the battery is warm when you charge, use your heated seats more than your HVAC, lower your driving speed to match the speed limit, etc.
\- my personal experience (22k KM on my car) is that you will no doubt experience some range loss in the winter. The colder it is, the worse it is. I would say on average I lost about 30% last winter but some of that is due to my heavy foot on the clear days.
\- I have put winter tires on every car I've owned in the last 25 years. So yes - I have them on my Model 3 and yes it handles like a dream in the snow.
Some shitty Achilles tires to Falken RT-615s.
Wow great work man thanks! I have Falken FK510 tires on my S. FWIW, excellent tire but holy shit was I surprised to see the rears were almost bald after 1 summer. (About 10000 kms)
I had the Falken Azenis on my S, I liked them. Great value summer tire and I don’t need no stinking snow grip here in Phoenix.
What a relief! Thanks to your chart, I see that I won't need to fork $329 per tire to replace the MICHELIN PILOT SPORT 4S mounted on my Model 3 Performance. It looks like the AZENIS FK510 will do the same job for a bit more than half the price of the Michelin!
Falken ZIEX 912 is the most over hyped tire I've ever had the misfortune of having mounted to my vehicle. Useless in the rain, greasy in the cold and noisy as hell as they begin to wear.
