Tires Tesla or OEM FORD

That sucks. It's not the car or rain's fault. These cars are just fine in the rain. You were driving too fast, or following too closely, or have bald tires.

Audi S3 to Tesla Model 3 Performance.

Went from $80 a week in fuel to $50 a month in power.

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

There's some evidence that EVs are harder on tires because they're heavier and accelerate better, but at 10k on my very, very heavy Lightning I'm not seeing that, probably because I drive like a grandma.

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?

Here\u2019s the \u201cbad\u201d stuff that I\u2019ve had on mine:\n\n- LED light on the running board went out. Replaced under warranty\n- backup sensor issue: a wire broke (i think) when I did some \u201cspirited\u201d driving on a gravel road. Getting fixed on Monday.\n- rear drive unit seal weeped a bit. Getting fixed on Monday.\n- stock tires sucked.

I needed new tires *ridiculously* fast, as the OEM set's treads wore out at an absurd rate. I honestly think I had a bad set, because even the tire guys who replaced them were shocked at how bad, and *inconsistent*, the wear was on 1-year-old tires. I got a 40% discount on them due to the warranty, but they were still $700.

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