How long does your tires last?

[TopazAl]

Hi all. I have the 2019 Model 3 with about 18600 miles. I have the 19" Tesla rims package with Continental tires. After 18600 miles, my rear tires only have less than 1/4" inch left. I was surprised the tires didn't even last more than 30k. I believe this is due to weight of the battery and torque of an EV make the tire wear out faster but not that quick. I am not that of an agressive driver.

Anyone has similar experience?

My oem michelin mxm lasted about 36000. I didn't drive them hard, but they were ready for replacement.

Battery weight ( which is significantly more than an ICE car engine ), regenerative braking, very aggressive acceleration, cold tire pressure and general driving habit all impact tire life. Local road condition too contributes to tire mileage. There is no one single cause , only some are more applicable in some cases than others.

My Michelin Primacy tires typically last just over 30k miles.

On my Model Y I replaced the rears at about 36k and fronts at about 60k.

1/4" is 8/32", which is almost a brand new tire. Tire tread is measured in /32nds of an inch in the USA.

My tires last about 22,000 to 30,000 miles, depending on how I drive with them. My all-seasons that I have fun with are on that lower range, and my winter tires that I'm gentle on are on the higher range.

10-12,000 miles on Mich PS4S, typically replace every fall before the rains begin

So far my m3p pzeros have 24k on them with a lot of tread left. Only rotated once lol

I put almost 40k on my PS4S and still have some tread left. I put almost 20k on my Blizzak LM-32’s and just replaced them….they still have tread….but are worn down to the “winter” bar Indicators.

1/4" = 8/32" which is only 1/32" worn from the Continental ProContact RX 235/40/19 T1 new tread depth of 9/32".

The usual measures for tire replacement are that 2/32" is the legal minimum, but wet performance declines significantly below 4/32".

I am close to 30k miles now on my oem pzeros and I think I can squeeze more out of them. Been driving them in wet, coldish weather too and still drive fine. I didn’t think these tires lasted this long.

28K on my OEM PZeros and I'm at the wear bar on the inside tread so I'll be replacing them.

If only your rears are used up, that indicates you have not done proper (frequent enough) tire rotation. The rears are more sollicited as the car is RWD-biased and is heavy, with a lot of torque.

Different types of Continental tires have different treadwear ratings. Some models are designed for high-performance and may have a shorter tread life, while others, like touring or all-season tires, are designed for longevity.

 

[daltonbourne07]

Examining tread depth is a reliable way to assess tire longevity, considering various factors at play.

09/2021 China M3 LFP with factory Michelin Pilotsport 4 gave an amazing 1001,000Km or 63,000miles and still had not reached the wear indicators which seemed to have not change from 80,000 when I first thought I’d need to change them. Decide 100,000km was good enough for me as we were coming into the rainy season and did not want to chance it. Now on Hankook ION EVO’s and hope they can deliver the same kind of range, they certainly seem quieter.

I am about to replace my tires again, this round I got just under 45,000 miles on Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3s....not bad at all. Will likely be going with the A/S 4s. The OEM set got me to 35k.
