I have a 2017 S75 RWD that is in for service right now. They are telling me I need new tires. I bought the car last year April and it had mostly new Bridgestone Potenza S04s with 9/32 tread all around. Rims are 19 inch.
They are saying that my fronts are between 7/32 and 8/32, but the back is 3/32 and 4/32. I asked why they don't just rotate them and they say they can't/shouldn't because the tread difference is too great and that after they get below 5/32 they don't recommend rotation as the car will likely have ABS or traction control lights going off due to the diameter (tread) difference from front to back.
Anyone have experience with this?
I have a feeling of they rotate em they'll be just fine and I'll get a few thousand miles more out of them.... But this is my first Tesla.
