Tires Tesla or Uniroyal

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.

There is such a notion as touring/comfort tires. They are not sporty at all, their advantage is in the ride quality compared to sportiness. And the prices are usually lower.

I drive a 2006 Toyota Camry. Not the best on gas, but it handles winter roads well and is comfortable. I like Uniroyal Tiger Paw all season tires.

General Tire, Kumho, Dunlop, Uniroyal are also decent.

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?

It's a uniroyal, probably has pinched steel in sidewall, it will blow sooner than later. Junk it.

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.
