vs
Tires Tesla or LANDSAIL
I’ve always been fond of Landsail for some reason.
Pros: always been fond
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
But what about other maintenance costs, such as brakes and tires? Obviously EVs don’t have fluid changes. But don’t the tires cost more and wear out quicker on the Tesla due to the extra weight and power?
Cons: tires wear out quicker
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
This car can’t hold a REAR alignment and eats tires.
Cons: eats tires, poor alignment
only issue i have is the car eats tires, 10-12k miles a set currently
Cons: short lifespan
