”TO” being the acoustic Tesla Spec correct? I believe “NO” is the Porsche Spec.Wanted to leave this here for anyone else buying Pilot Sport 4S tires @ U.S. Costcos. As of Jan 2022, the "acoustic" PS4S tires (the "T0" style) are SKU 1237608. I called to find this out since the web site showed 3 different SKUs for the PS4Ses and I couldn't tell the difference.
This is in contrast to BJs Wholesale, who when I checked only had one model of PS4S and it's the "N0" variety. HTH.
That is my understanding. I feel like this is not well-known enough by vehicle owners nor tire retailers.”TO” being the acoustic Tesla Spec correct? I believe “NO” is the Porsche Spec.
But what horrible Costco Policy!
Did anyone encounter similar issues?? Just want to share my thoughts. Thanks.
if u replace it with any other tires other than the MXM4, your warranty of tire wear thru Costco is not valid bc it does not meet Tesla standard.
Can you have this written down? Or was this only a tactic for selling something you didn't wanted?the manager kept insisting that I should get the Michelin Primacy MXM4 (which total cost about $1250) and he also told me that bc Tesla recommend the Michelin MXM4 for Model 3, if u replace it with any other tires other than the MXM4, your warranty of tire wear thru Costco is not valid bc it does not meet Tesla standard.
Latest info about Costco Tesla tire policy...
as I just replace my tires at Costco for Model 3 SR+ with set of Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 (at $237.99 each), total including tax and misc fees came out to about $965. I just don't know if I had a bad representative/manager to help me or not, but he and the manager kept insisting that I should get the Michelin Primacy MXM4 (which total cost about $1250) and he also told me that bc Tesla recommend the Michelin MXM4 for Model 3, if u replace it with any other tires other than the MXM4, your warranty of tire wear thru Costco is not valid bc it does not meet Tesla standard.
I went ahead and had them installed the Michelin Pilot Sport All season 4, and take my chance with the Pilot since I believe it doesn't matter what expensive tire you get for Model 3 EV, it won't last more than 30K, since EV are heavy and wear out faster than ordinary gas car. But what horrible Costco Policy!

I wonder how reliable others' recommendations on road noise are. I bought my 235/45R-18 VREDESTEIN QUATRAC PRO XL tires based on a few comments that they are very quiet. My impression was that they are noisier than the tires that came on the car.
Not only is noise subjective, it can vary so much based on the pavement type. There's a stretch of about one mile where those tires really resonate with a low rumble. On another area they sound like singing ghosts.
I think you have two too many words in this statementI would NEVER trustsubjective tirerecommendations from strangers on internet.
I was waiting for someone to pounce on the imbedded irony of my statement, but your observation is also valid.I think you have two too many words in this statement
I had ordered Cross Climate 2 tires for my 2019 M3 SR+ and Costco refused to put them on today. Told me I could take them somewhere else and retain the Michelin warranty, but they would not mount the CC-2's. Frustrating. Same thing with the speed rating as others have noted.When I replaced my MSM4 with Pilot Sports, they originally didn't want to do it because of a difference in speed rating (V vs W maybe? it's been a while). But Then a manager approved that they could install tires that were one letter lower in speed rating. Given that my Tesla was never over 90mph, I'm not particularly concerned if the speed rating is 149 mph or 168mph.
Tesla and Michelin put literally put hundreds of thousands of miles testing tread pattern, rubber compounds, sound attenuation and wear and you expect a tire salesman or some guy on the internet to proclaim which tire is best? I have over 40,000 miles on my Model 3 OEM tires and I will replace them with the same before the rains hit, but they are still above wear bars. I drive on rough county roads and freeways, as little city driving as possible.I would NEVER trust subjective tire recommendation from strangers on internet. Especially for 2nd/3rd tire budget brands.
If in doubt, search for independent tire reviews, or ones with a very large sampling of customer feedback.

That's very true.
Tire noise varies by road surfaces, tread depth (tend to get noisier as tread wears), temperature, driver's age (older people are less sensitive), and driver's subjective sensitivity to varying sound frequency ranges.
Something that one person finds quiet, the other may find intolerable.
Discount Tire/America's Tire has been way above and beyond for me. Had a tire with a sidewall puncture ~40K miles into it's life but they replaced it outright for free in 20 minutes.I have used Costco tire road hazard with no problem twice. Of course, its prorated, what were you expecting?
Have you driven them in snow?I had Michelin Cross Climate 2's put on my Model 3 at Costco about 8 months ago. They had zero issues and never mentioned anything about recommendations. They simply looked at the tire size, and load rating and found the proper Cross Climates to go on. $800 out the door. They are great tires.
I've also run cc2 on model 3 sr+ for over a year. Previously my prior model 3 ran viking contact 7 dedicated winters and oem mxm.Have you driven them in snow?
Also any reduction in efficiency ?
I have the stock mxm tires which are terrible in the wet at 20k miles. Thanks!
