MX plaid tire wear update

[lynnpt2001]

Just wanted to update you on our 22 mx plaid tire wear. 14k miles so far with 7/32 remaining on all 4 tires with no sign of inner wear on the rears. So much better than the 2018 mx we replaced. This is pointing to around 30+ k miles per set. So far pleased

Thats great to hear! What your driving is style and/or average kwh/wh?

Somewhere in the 320 whm range, mix city and rural highway. Some accelerations but not too agressive. Family car for the most part

Background details, thread, tires, etc. etc.

I have encountered so many of these topics. I will not believe it until I see proof of when it was installed, and the mileage at the time of installed.

I will not believe it due to the fact that I had a Chevy Volt with a significantly slower acceleration rate than a MX, and tires wear down to 4/32 at almost 20k miles. This is on a tire rating for 50k miles too. How can you drive aggressively on a Volt with such measly acceleration? You can't beat that logic.

this is so true...

that s why on mx 10k tire replacement is the safest play...

Align a Chevy with aggressive toe and camber and you'd see similar results.

How many more miles have you put on it since then? Still wearing well?

i just got new rear tires for my 2022 model x plaid. I got 17,000 miles out of the rear tires before the inside rear tires were bald. I got the rear caber kit now so hopfully these tires will last longer

I see many of you are located in sunnier (less "winter" weather) states, are you all running the summer tires on these 22's are did you put all-seasons on them?

Thanks!

i have a 2022 model x plaid with stock 20 inch wheel that came with the summer michelin latitude sport 3 tires. I just replaces my reat tires with another set of Michelin latitude sport 3 summer tires. i know all season would last longer but i have a plaid so i figure i need the grip.

I have an MXP on order and keep going back and forth between the 22s and 20s, I like the look on the 22s but live in an area (DC) where I need something other than strictly summer tires.

only the early 2022 plaids came with summer tires. They now all come with all seasons for both the long range and the plaid.

WHOOAAA mind blown...the site and my order showed 22s with summer tires. If they are indeed all-seasons, I'm editing my order now lol

More cost savings lol

For those doubters on the thread. We had a 2018 MX 75D with Continentals. Fronts got replaced at 20K miles consistently. Rears could get to 30k with inner tire wear showing. Went through a few sets of tires in the 93K miles we had the car. Very consistent. The plaid we bought a year ago in September. Same driving style, likely a little harder acceleration from time to time. Car has just over 20K miles today. Just checked, around 7/32 across the complete tread on all 4 tires. No signs of inner tire wear at all. This suspension is completely different than the 18. I can't speak for others only this car. I will continue to monitor the wear and update as time and mileage progresses....

How come you went with those over the Michelin Pilot Sport EV? The pilots should have way better grip

Which rear camber kit did you end up going with?

Not sure it is because I am Florida or not, but my 2023 MXP (MFD 6/23) with "22's came with Summer Tires.
