I've just discovered an egg in the sidewall of my front left tire...
So now I'm looking to replace my Front Tyres and potentially all 4.
I have the 21" wheel, so it's 245/35 R21 on the front and 265/35 R21 on the back. They have done around ~11,000kms, still plenty of tread left.
Looking at either replacing with what it already has, the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S T0 (More on the T0 below) or something else.
Which leads me here, I'm hoping to get some advice.
Firstly, after some research, I discovered that T0 means it's a Tesla Specific version of the PS4S, Does that mean I have to use the T0 version specifically?
Secondly, does anyone have any experience with the Michelin Super Sport? I'm interested in them mainly due to them being Run-Flats, which given we don't have a spare, does appeal to me.
Finally, I've always replaced all 4 tyres on my cars at the same time, because you should have 'the same wear' on all 4 if possible, however is this just a myth or is there truth to it?
So I'm trying to decide between:
1. Replace just the defective tyre (Having different wear between the front tyres won't matter)
2. Replace just the front tyres, to ensure the front has the same wear pattern
3. Replace all 4 with Pilot Sport 4S T0 (If the T0 part is required due to the weight of the vehicle)
4. Replace all with Michelin Super Sports to gain Run-Flat, just incase I run into issues while on a roadtrip.
5. Other??
TLR, Tesla Model S Performance 2020, tires around 50% worn, 1 tyre needs replacing. Would like to know what you recommend.
