Model 3 Highland - Slow puncture / Replacement tyre

[MBap]

I have a slow puncture on one of my tyres (after doing 3500 miles) and the leasing company are organising a replacement through either ATS or Kwik Fit. Ideally, I want a like for like replacement.

The tyre that needs replacing is a MICHELIN E PRIMACY ST ACOUSTIC T2 - 235/45R18 98V XL TL.

The closest tyre I can find on either the ATS and Kwik Fit website is:

Would anyone know if either of these are the same tyre? I spoke to someone at Kwik Fit yesterday and they couldn't confirm either way (they said at worst, it is a similar tyre)?

Alternatively, would anyone have any suggestions on how best to proceed?

Ideally, I want a like for like replacement.

Why?

Why?

The leasing company will only replace the single tyre with the slow puncture. Therefore, I thought I should stick with the OEM tyre to match the others and leave the car as close to factory spec as possible.

Additionally, I thought the OEM tyre would be the tried and tested tyre for maximum range etc.

o match the others and leave the car as close to factory spec as possible.

Leasing companies do not mind if it is not OEM spec tyres.

Thank you. I agree the leasing company will not mind.

My thoughts were that I should try and go for the tried and tested specified OEM tyre for maximum range etc. Hence the question.

If it's close but maybe not a T0 or whatever designation that Tesla gives that should be fine really. My wife has a M3P with a leasing company and they replaced one tyre with a completely different brand. Not much you can do when it's not your car or call really.

go not T0 as t) is same tyre as normal, jsut has some "acoustic foam" which effects are questionable really.

just get same what you need just without T0
