Tires Tesla or IRONMAN

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.

I replaced my aging Toyota Tacoma with a Cybertruck. When it finally came out, I was a bit disappointed with the Cybertruck’s range stats. I didn’t realistically expect it to have the full 500 miles promised in 2017, but when I finally bought mine a couple of months ago, my range expectations were admittedly low, but the actual range I got was impressive. Add to that the truck has the largest bed of the available full sized electric trucks, plus drive by wire, rear wheel steering, 48 volt architecture, etc., I am pretty happy. My biggest gripe was the lack of a spare tire.

F250 diesel guy here for 35 years in construction. I sold my last truck and moved to the model S. I was so impressed with the S that I bought a Foundation Cyberbeast. I use it like a truck maxing it out with no problems ever. I just finished a loaded 2500 km road trip this week. Range anxiety is a thing of the past. Believe the Tesla estimated range on the screen and charge when it says to. Simple and fun to drive. A sports-car truck. It does more than my diesel and powers my cottage for 5 days to boot. I did pick up a nail but that was easily fixed roadside with a plug and pistol grip inflator.

I thought they must be crap but after looking into them, they are very well-reviewed. A traction A temp, UHP (ultra-high performance) rated. I like them. You could pay $400/tire for a premium brand but they won't be 4 times better or last 4 times longer.

I stretch 225/35/19 Ironman Gen 2s on 9.5 wides, they seem like they have more stretch to give too.

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?

They put Ironman tires on it???? but surprisingly they aren’t performing half bad !

Tires on the Tesla are very expensive and wear out guicker because of weight of battery.

This tire is new Iron Man. This is the second chunk missing; the other tire was replaced under warranty. It’s new, maybe 2 months old.

This car can’t hold a REAR alignment and eats tires.
