I purchased my dual motor Model 3 with 19" sport wheels March 30, 2022. I've put 35,747 miles on it as I type this. I'm sitting in my Tesla dealership getting tires because they're getting pretty thin. I have sticker shock at the cost to replace the tires. I've driven lots of cars with low profile tires. I realize that low profile/run flat tires only get 30,000-40,000 miles on them. To replace them on my Cadillac that I had prior to this car it was $1,300. The cost to replace 4 tires at Tesla is $1,750. When I arrived they asked me if I wanted to get an alignment too. I asked why it's not included and was told, "This isn't Tire Discounters" with a chuckle. So, to get 4 new tires, and an alignment it's $2,047.72 or almost $1,000 more than non-electric vehicle tires. If I'm going to have to replace these every 18 months I need to find a better (and by better I mean cheaper) place to buy tires. Who do you use? I live in Cincinnati.
