Inside tire wear is from the prior alignment. A tire, by nature, isn't going to wear more on the inside just because of the way it was designed. That's 100% on the vehicle. Your alignment cupped the Goodyears, and caused them to be noisy. When you got it fixed, you put a different set of tires on too, so the noise went away. It doesn't take much toe to screw up a set of tires. My Model Y is currently riding on a set of the OEM Michelins that are extremely noisy because the inside bar is cupped from a previous poor alignment the car was delivered with.I used to have the Good Year Electric Drive GT tires in my ‘21 MY. Worst mistake I’ve ever made. Those tires were awful. I drive conservatively and they only lasted about 18k miles. They claimed to better suited for EV cars and were supposed to make the road noise quieter. This was simply not true. There was no distinguishing difference in road noise over the stock Continentals. The Good Year tires had massive chucks ripped out of the tread, and the inside of the tires wore prematurely due to the rounded edges. I swapped back to a new set of the stock Continental’s and got an alignment. The technician said that my alignment was not the issue and that the minor adjustments he made were normal after the mileage my car had but not significant enough to cause this kind of premature wear on the Good years. He also said that this wasn’t the first Tesla he saw with those tires and the same issue.
Stay away from good year for your EV. The stock continentals have lasted me the longest.
Tires? How many?My car is about 3 months old at 3300 mileage. I just drive to and from work and today my good year tires popped on the freeway. Is there warranties on these?
Actually you are wrong. Goodyear took full responsibility and offered a replacement set or credit. Multiple alignment shops have confirmed that the design of the tire was to blame. My alignment was correct upon inspection. Goodyear has apparently updated the design.Inside tire wear is from the prior alignment.
