vs
Tires Tesla or PHANTOM
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
Still need tire shops. Everything else that is ICE specific will shut down.
I got cheap tires on my 2019 Tesla 3 performance and it now has 130k with one flat only, it's actually lighter that gives more range too.
Pros: more range, lighter
Mileage: 209215 km
Currently, running Phantom C-sports. Have 25k on these...and they are wearing o0n target to reach the 50k guarantee.
Pros: wearing on target
Cons: EV tires are a scam
Vehicle:
Kia
Mileage: 40200 km
I don't know if it is still relevant, but I put this Phantom on my 2020 Ridgeline, and I’m very happy. I saved at least $200. The tires were a little bit noisy in the beginning but after the first month much better ???? keep road as champ even under heavy rain. Totally recommend this tires!
Pros: keep road as champ
Cons: noisy in the beginning
Vehicle:
Honda Ridgeline
Phantoms are America's/Discount Tire own brand tire. They're a mid range tire that are for SUV's mainly but the smaller trucks like f-150, and the 1500's can run it if they are older from when they had the smaller frames. Better than the cheapest option out there, but don't expect top tier performance like, Michelin, Yokohama, and so on.
I'd recommend them if you do in city driving mainly, but they'll still be fine on highway driving. They're fine in wet weather as well. But again they arent top tier, but a decent budget tire so you don't break the bank.
Pros: decent budget tire
Cons: not top tier
On a Tesla yes
only issue i have is the car eats tires, 10-12k miles a set currently
Cons: short lifespan
Don’t go with phantom I work at discount tire and I’ve heard so many people say that if there’s even a little bit of water on the road they lose traction
Cons: lose traction in water
never heard of this brand = dont buy. for a daily car with that much annual mileage buy a reputable brand.
Cons: unreputable brand
Vehicle:
Honda Pilot
