Premature Tire Wear

[gt2690b]

I replaced the OEM contis after 13k.. now Im getting excessive inside rear wear on next set they lasted maybe 20k.. have MPP lift kit ... Anyone getting 30k or more did you have alignment done ? Seems like most Tesla have negative rear camber on purpose.. seems only solution is after market adjustable camber arms

I thought lift was supposed to result in less negative camber

40K on OEM 20s… rotate, align, and balance every 6,500 miles per the manual. You can buy lifetime packages for all three services at Firestone.

I suppose if you balance you can cross rotate to mitigate inside tire wear

I am 10k miles into Continental ProContact RX OEM tires on 19" wheels on my 2022 MYP. Inside shoulders are pretty much gone on all sides, probably will have to replace soon. Ugh. Rotation may have helped a little, but seeing as the inside edges are all shot, I'm not sure. But at least documented rotation will let you claim a mileage warranty I guess.

Alignment wasn't too off, specs below (I did this last week):


LF RF LR RR
Camber 0.75- 0.75- 1.2- 2.0-
Caster 5.0+ 5.0+
Toe (before) 0.15 out 0.05 out 0 0
Toe (after). 0.02 in 0.02 in 0.06 in 0.06 in

You could also balance (remount) and move the inside of the tire to the outside

That’s true… I’d have to find a smaller shop to do it though. I know the Americas tires shops near me are sticklers for procedure and will call those tires worn…

Curious if you had any issues with the mileage warranty. I'm in a similar situation with Continental Extreme Contact DW06 Plus with ~8k miles / 1 year and rear tire treads are completely worn out. Spoke to the place where I had them installed (Mavis) and they gave me the run around about no warranties on Tesla's or reach out to Continental directly.
