Tires OEM Mazda or Tesla

my tesla.. never have had any issues and ive had it for 3 years. I replaced the tires once.. thats it

For the 2023 MYP I have, I mean… No real maintenance aside from the tires and windshield wiper fluids.

Haven’t had to change brakes or battery so far. No major rattles.

I've had my model 3 for 7 years now and the only thing I've ever done is change tires

Love the traction and the control I have with M3P on my winter setup.

However, we had our first serious snow last night. The crappy roads, coupled with the low (mid-20’s F) killed my charge way faster than expected. I’m not too worried about it since I mainly charge at home but I only got about 340 wh/mile instead of my usual 260 or so over about 200 miles doing uber.

Used the plan for my rear of my M3P. They replaced the single tire. Car was less than 1 mo old so the others were same depth as new. In fact the 3 original tires that remain are a newer production date than what was replaced.

30k miles on 2024 mazda3 turbo hatchback. No problems other than replaced tires due to the low profiles hitting potholes.

But what about other maintenance costs, such as brakes and tires? Obviously EVs don’t have fluid changes. But don’t the tires cost more and wear out quicker on the Tesla due to the extra weight and power?

Tires are a joke! I had a flat on a 2026 Juniper model and they gave me a reservation for three weeks out! I went to a discount tire bought their road hazard warranty for three years for $29 a tire done ✅ canceled my Tesla one plus I get faster service

The tire size on the vehicle is not common and I’m seeing prices of $300+ per tire, more expensive than my F-150.

As others have said, bulging is a sign that the internal structure of the tyre has failed. As frustrating as this is, it's new tyre time.
