You could be right, toe does have a significant impact on that kinda wear, and the torque on that axle has to be extremely harsh on the tire. I would play with the toe and camber alignment when the car is in the lowest suspension setting to try and "fix" this issue. Second I would dump the 21's and get 19's and see if you have the same issue.I am not in the "it's the camber, stupid" camp. My thought is that the tires are structurally getting "broken" by the massive, instant torque on the inside corner and then wear unevenly as they then continue to deform with just regular use after that. Camber wear is even across almost the entire tread. Our tires are only on that inside edge, which would be toe, but even toe wear is not like what we are seeing.

Replaced both rear tires at Tesla SC. Got T2 version.
Tesla
Charged 510x2 + 100 installation + wheels alignment = $1500 ;(
What's interesting, TireRack, has this tires for $546
Submitted reimburse to Michelin, to get 60% back from $1020, got approved.
Very expensive wear and tear for one year. I made it clear to tesla, that want to get idea of root of issue. Wheel alignment does not show any red flags for rear.

Yes, I said that I drive mostly in Low settings. But car was aligned in normal, pretty sure. TOE is in spec before and only rear right cracked.Did you have them do the alignment in the low setting? Your toe is pretty far out on both rears before the alignment, which they adjusted.
Simpletire had 7 in stock. Only place I could find any. Supposed to arrive Saturday.
You have to call Michelin and get a claim number, then you have to get an authorized Michelin dealer to inspect the tire.
Anyone fixed this with aftermarket camber arms?
Also a thought. What if we rotated rear tires after 5-10k miles. Like make the inside the outside.
The shoulder tread is designed differently on the inside as it is the outside on PS4S, that's why it has the big label that says "outside" on the tire.
That's why people have started using the aftermarket products and getting the alignment done in the low setting, not medium.So basically our only option is to replace every 10k miles? Seems ridiculous

MPP and UP both have products to address the issue, and n2itive is supposed to be coming

I'm installing and re-aligning myself ......... but I've been working on "things" for years .......... any good alignment shop should be able to do it ...... just make sure you know what alignment setting (camber/toe) you want them to put it at (and I would do this in the low height setting).Looks great. So a regular tire shop can install these? How do I get them installed? So these are adjustable compared to factory?
