Any advice on how to find the problem? Tesla service just wants to replace the tires, I will do it with Costco as it is cheaper.No. Not normal.
Maybe add some pictures from a couple angles that show tread on the inside and outside. example:Any advice on how to find the problem? Tesla service just wants to replace the tires, I will do it with Costco as it is cheaper.
I'm no expert, but I can only think of a few causes: a lot of hard braking, or something with the rear motor, or possibly misalignment of the front wheels.
I think braking uses the front wheels a lot more than the rear. And, as we know, front-wheel drive cars wear the front tires a lot, but I'd think the MX would use rear the most for acceleration unless there's something strange going on with the rear motor.
I'm not that familiar with the MX; is there any setting for FWD or RWD?
Tire pressure is 45 on all 4 tires

I'm replacing all 4 tires next week, while replacing them they (Costco) will do an alignment, right? or i need to take it to Tesla for ir?Typically the X has premature rear tire wear from aggressive toe. You have outside tire wear (if I'm looking at the photos correctly). Bad toe is the most likely culprit, since it's unlikely you have extreme positive camber. Get an alignment and post the before and after sheet.

Costco does not do alignments. Tesla can do it as well as most automotive repair and tire shops.I'm replacing all 4 tires next week, while replacing them they (Costco) will do an alignment, right? or i need to take it to Tesla for ir?
You need to have a quality wheel alignment. I don't know if Costco does those.Any advice on how to find the problem? Tesla service just wants to replace the tires, I will do it with Costco as it is cheaper.
Correct. They do not perform an alignment before shipping.Makes me think Tesla isn't aligning cars from the factory.
