vs
Tires Tesla or DEXTER
I always get the budget "Dextero" brand from WalMart, and I've been happy with them.
Pros: Happy with performance, good value
Vehicle:
Jeep Grand Cherokee
Burned through my stock tires super fast. They lasted 16k miles. Got me some Michelin CrossClimate IIs and they still look almost brand new, even after 35k additional miles.
Pros: long lasting tires
Cons: stock tires wore quickly
Mileage: 35000 km
I've just fitted my third set of tyres. First two sets lasted 36k and 45k (km).
Pros: replaced tires
Mileage: 45000 km
I would have chosen/ordered these ATX from WM to replace my Falkens, but a tree branch punctured my tires and I was forced to buy *in stock* Dextero DAT1 AT Tires. NOT 3PMS, but look VERY similar the my Wildpeak AT Trails! I got the rear set replaced, will replace the fronts soon. Happy with my purchase.
Pros: happy with purchase
Vehicle:
Honda Ridgeline
I have had 2 sets of them in 5 years on an 05 tahoe. First set has lasted me roughly 48k and the most recent pair are still on the tahoe with abiut 20k on them (Tahoe is sitting, I now drive a 2016 Colorado) The tires are made local to me in South Carolina. For the price I cant beat it. I have nothing but good experience with the Dextero AT
Pros: good experience, good price
Vehicle:
Chevrolet Tahoe
Mileage: 48000 km
Hope ICE repair shops can transition to EV repairs. We wont need regular maintenance but we will need a lot more tires (lol) and brake maintenance since we dont use them as much (rust avoidance).
Pros: more tires needed
Cons: brake rust avoidance
I went from Falken Wildpeak AT Trail to these DAT 1’s. Look very similar. My rears were $91. My fronts not on sale will be $102. The Wildpeaks in 2020 were $126, now $215. So cheap shit for me it is! But they look good and get me to work.
Pros: look good
Cons: cheap
Ive had a set of 245/65/17's on the rear of my Dakota for about 4 to 5 years now. They are decent for a budget tire but don't expect them to be on par with the likes of Goodyear, BF, etc.. In my experience, there down fall is mileage. Mine have worn even and ride nice, dry traction is very good & wet traction can be questionable.
Pros: dry traction is good
Cons: mileage is a downfall
Vehicle:
Dodge Dakota
Mileage: 20000 km
I needed new tires *ridiculously* fast, as the OEM set's treads wore out at an absurd rate. I honestly think I had a bad set, because even the tire guys who replaced them were shocked at how bad, and *inconsistent*, the wear was on 1-year-old tires. I got a 40% discount on them due to the warranty, but they were still $700.
Pros: warranty discount
Cons: tires wore out fast, inconsistent wear
Tires on the Tesla are very expensive and wear out guicker because of weight of battery.
Cons: expensive, wear out quicker
