Tires Tesla or Giti
Audi S3 to Tesla Model 3 Performance.
Went from $80 a week in fuel to $50 a month in power.
Pros: no warm up required
Cons: expensive tires
my tesla.. never have had any issues and ive had it for 3 years. I replaced the tires once.. thats it
Pros: no issues, reliable
For the 2023 MYP I have, I mean… No real maintenance aside from the tires and windshield wiper fluids.
Haven’t had to change brakes or battery so far. No major rattles.
Pros: no major rattles, rock solid
I've had my model 3 for 7 years now and the only thing I've ever done is change tires
Pros: only changed tires
Love the traction and the control I have with M3P on my winter setup.
However, we had our first serious snow last night. The crappy roads, coupled with the low (mid-20’s F) killed my charge way faster than expected. I’m not too worried about it since I mainly charge at home but I only got about 340 wh/mile instead of my usual 260 or so over about 200 miles doing uber.
Pros: good traction and control
Cons: charge drains faster
Mileage: 321 km
Ive heard of laufenn but im more familiar with Giti as you see there stuff rebranded in the US as GT Radial and Dextero which are popular in discount tire and walmart. They’re a good budget tire but dont expect 50k out of them. I find most budget tires feel just as good as the more expensive stuff with their longevity being the main drawback
Pros: good budget tire
Cons: longevity being drawback
Mine are around 3.5/32 and 4.5/32 with 35k miles. Probably going to change them in a few thousands more.
Pros: good mileage
Cons: low thread depth
Mileage: 35000 km
I just took delivery of a 26 Model Y Performance. It has 21 inch wheels with rubber bands for tires. It took 6 hours and 100 miles before I hit a pothole and dented the rim and split the tire sidewall. Crap!
Pros: wheel and tire coverage
Cons: rim dented, tire split
Mileage: 161 km
Tires are a joke! I had a flat on a 2026 Juniper model and they gave me a reservation for three weeks out! I went to a discount tire bought their road hazard warranty for three years for $29 a tire done ✅ canceled my Tesla one plus I get faster service
Pros: faster service
Cons: slow service, joke
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
