Hi everyone.
What is the tire life you are getting from your P85D 21" tires?
My car was fitted with the 21" rims and Michelin PS2 tires on November 12, 2015 and after 5500km/3400 miles, the outer edges of the front tires are bald. The rear tires have even wear and look reasonable for the milage covered.
I feel this is very unreasonable as I'm not an aggressive driver. We have a 3 month old baby so we have been in the super careful slow driver mode since last year when my wife was pregnant.
We have only tried insane mode maybe a dozen times and always on straight roads, never done any race tracks or anything even close to that.
Tesla Hong Kong are checking my wheel alignment and have said that they found nothing wrong. They are saying it is normal since the car is heavy. They also say that Hong Kong roads might be wearing out tires faster, but compared to other local drivers, my wear rate is crazy. The service guys have also tried to blame narrow parking spaces that might require more turns of the wheel to get in (Seriously?)
This isn't my first car, nor is it my first "high performance" car either, so it is not a case of an inexperienced driver not knowing how to handle the car. We don't keep heavy items in the frunk and the trunk only has a baby stroller and the charging cables.
What do you think I should do with this situation?
What do you think is a reasonable outcome here?
