Model S Tires

[GeorgeM]

New tires installed yesterday. Discount Tire sales guy told me my tires are unsafe. I don’t know but didn’t want to mess with it. Probably could have got a couple thousand miles more by rotating since rears had more tread than fronts. Warranty coverage was $75 a tire for fronts. Rears had 3/32 inch tread left so not covered. Alignment check set up for next week. Disappointed with the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 19” lasting 9000 miles.

Please post the alignment results when you get it done. Something is off somewhere. You got 1/3 the tread life I expect to get, with pretty much identical cars.

9k miles? Wow.... There's something REALLY not right happening here unless you drive autocross or are Jeremy Clarkson.

I was told by a couple shops that they don’t do Tesla alignment. So I made an appointment with the dealer. They came back with an estimate of $275! I canceled the appointment and will check around with a few more shops. Any suggestions?

Found a shop that does Tesla alignment for $175. Still expensive but saves $100 vs the dealer.
