I'm not due to replace mine yet but occasionally check what the cost would be so I have an idea when I will need a tyre.
When I bought the car in March 2022 the standard 18 inch Michelin OEM Tesla acoustic tyres were around £200 if you shopped around.
At the moment they all seem to be over £300!
Is it just current supply and demand, why so much more than last year?
I know some people just fit standard tyres instead but I'd read that the factory fit tyres are specifically developed for the car and apart from acoustics the handling is supposedly better as they factor in the extra weight of the batteries.
Just thought I'd ask what everyone else thinks?
