Tires Tesla or COMFORSER
July of 2020 built LR Y with 34k miles and its been great. Definitely by far the best car I've owned. My 1st year I only drove it 7k miles, but then I bought a house 35 miles from my work and ended up putting on 27k miles in the last year.
My 1 and only complaint is it chews through tires, I replaced the factory set at around 20k miles, and 5k of those miles were on snow tires and they were rotated religiously. I've adjusted my driving habits a little (I have a heavy right foot, lol) and I think I might get 30k miles out of my current set.
Pros: best car I've owned
Cons: chews through tires
Mileage: 54000 km
My 21 MYLR delivered last September, and I’ve put on 23k mi since. Have had to replace windshield, tires, and got the trailer hitch installed. The road noise bothered me at first, but when I replaced the tires (larger all weather) that has significantly improved.
Pros: road noise improved
Cons: road noise bothered
Mileage: 37000 km
I’ve had good luck with Comforser CF3000s if you’re looking for a decent budget tire
Pros: decent budget tire
I’m running Comforser CF1100 33x12.50R20s, great on and off road, no noise, great price and the tread pattern is close to that of the BFG all terrains. Balanced out easy as well
Pros: great on and off road
Cons: balanced out easy
Part number: CF1100
I have a RWD LR Model 3 so my reply is based solely on this. I have never considered any other EV so I can't tell you about them.
\- I drive my son all over Ontario, Quebec, and the northern US for his sports year round. Sometimes to very rural areas. You'd be surprised where you come across charging stations.
\- You can change your habits to allow more efficiency in the winter: schedule your charging to complete around the time you plan to leave, try to make sure your battery is warm when you drive (see first point), always make sure the battery is warm when you charge, use your heated seats more than your HVAC, lower your driving speed to match the speed limit, etc.
\- my personal experience (22k KM on my car) is that you will no doubt experience some range loss in the winter. The colder it is, the worse it is. I would say on average I lost about 30% last winter but some of that is due to my heavy foot on the clear days.
\- I have put winter tires on every car I've owned in the last 25 years. So yes - I have them on my Model 3 and yes it handles like a dream in the snow.
Pros: handles like a dream
Cons: 30% range loss
Mileage: 22000 km
Yes, they’re cheap, and yes they hold on well enough in the dry and make the fun 1970s police chase tyre squeal noise, but when there is even the slightest moisture on the road, and I mean just a bit of damp or drizzle, they lose ALL grip. They are genuinely dangerous and should not be for sale anywhere that rains.
Pros: fun tyre squeal noise
Cons: lose ALL grip
Check out arivo, sailun, federal, Achilles, gt radial these are mid to upper mid budget tires.
Anything cheaper just go with westlake or look for the ph branded tire from yokohama. Hard pass for comforser tires
Cons: Hard pass
