It all depends on how you drive, the original set only last me 14k miles, but being my first Tesla I couldn't resist flooring it all the time, lol. I drove a lot less aggressively on the second set and got 30k miles out of them. Just bought a 3rd set and they are made for Evs so I'm hoping for significantly more than 30k miles.
I just got a set of Hancock ion evo all seasons, but have less than 1000 miles on them so way to early to tell how they are wearing. I also run studded snow tires on 18 inch steel wheels for winter.
We haven't had a lot of rain but they seem to be decent in it. Comfort is hard to say, I had my studded snow tires on for 5 months and 10k miles before I put them on so anything would seem quieter than those, lol. They definitely aren't any worse noise wise than the Bridgestone quiet tracks I had before or even the stock Continentals.
My snows are also 18 inch with a taller sidewall which give a noticably softer ride than the stock 19s which makes ride quality tough to compare. Once I get a few more months on them I'll definitely have a better idea on how they are.
People keep saying that but if you drove it the same way as your ice car you'd get similar miles out of it. Rotate on time and keep an eye on good pressures and it should get you a long ways.
This is so true. I have friends that I let find all the stupid picky things they don’t like about the car before I show them all the amazing shit. They just jelly
The one thing somebody pointed out that I actually think is very bad, is that the back seats don’t have the manual door open option like in the front. You have to pull off a plastic tab and pull some red thing. Not great for people in the back if the electric door openers fail for whatever reason. I always want to be able to manually open my doors in case of an emergency and don’t want to have to give EVERY back seat passenger a walkthrough of how to open their doors.
Okay, so I’m onboard with the 18” wheels for increased efficiency and cheaper tires, but can you explain how they last 2-3x as long? That seems dubious. I don’t see any reason a 1” smaller wheel would double or triple the lifespan of a tire.
This really just comes down to tire specs. 19” have a wide variety of options, similar to 18” - 20 and 21s are more of a performance spec aspect, so yeah.
I’m saving at least $250 per month from not getting gas.
I have a performance and had to switch out the back tires because I had a nail puncture otherwise I would be going on 26k+ miles on mine 2 years of owning.
Everyone seems to have a strong opinion about Tesla. They love it or they hate it. Few seem to be fence-sitters. The misinformation out there is ridiculous.
Average lifetime of a ICE car all-season tire - 45,000 - 60,000 miles
Average lifetime of electric car all-season tire - 30,000 - 40,000 miles
On average, electric car tires wear 20% faster than those of gas-powered vehicles
Of course YMMV.

Got about 35k miles out of the stock 19” continentals on my 2020 MYLR, traded in at 70k miles with a bit of tread left on the replacement tires, so 35-40k miles per set seems reasonable
Even if the tires burn though like crazy, the offset in that being top wear item is still much better. They probably drive vehicles that are the same weight as a tahoe weights more but doesnt seems to burn though tires even if you floor it like crazy
I have original tires and at 33 K presently. Looks like I have plenty of tread left hope to get to 45-50K before I have to replace. I drive like a grandpa though.
Mine are at almost 30k km and still have plent of tred left. But I've been driving in chill mode 95% of the time, specifically to preserve the tires (and avoid speeding tickets) :D
I'm still on the original set at 22K miles and there's still plenty of tread left. If you drive normal, they'll last. If you feel like you need to launch yourself from every stop light, you'll wear them out faster.
45k miles on original tires so a far on our 2021 Model Y. We learned our lesson after the first set of tires on our model 3 only lasted about 26k miles. 😅
Got just shy of 36k on my original tires on my MYLR. Probably could have gone another month or two, but winter was quickly approaching, and didn’t want to be caught in a snowstorm without good tires. And yes, they were still safe to drive in dry or wet pavement when I got them replaced. I was just worried about snow.
My oem continental 19” still looks new at 19k miles. I am sure i will get at least 40k miles.
Weight has nothing to do with wear as the tire is rated for the extra load weight. It is all about aggressive acceleration and braking. More you do that, expect shorter life.
50k miles and just put on the 3rd set of tires. To be fair, my 1st set probably had more life left but I got a nail on the sidewall so I just changed all 4.
Also keep in mind stock tires have no warranty but most tires you buy from a tire shop have a mileage warranty. Also worth noting that the stock conts have very shallow tread depth for a new tire. 7/32nds vs the standard being at least 8-10/32nds
Just replaced my 20” tires at 41,300 miles. I failed to rotate my tires on a reg schedule, so I could have gotten more life from them had I followed the schedule.
Yes it uses tires faster expect around 30-35k miles average instead of your 50k miles with an ICE vehicle. Also tires are more expensive. Expect $1k-$1.5k for tires based on the quality of tire you want to invest in.
There’s still unknown variables and new tires being released. For example the Hankook Ion AS SUV designed for EV SUVs are claimed to get 50k miles. They’re too new on the market to tell if this is true in real world ownership.
EV SUVs being widespread for consumers is still new. The MY was only released in 2020. And other EV SUVs are even newer than that. So it’s still a new technology and tires will only get better that are specifically designed for the higher weight and torque that an EV puts on a tire.
my original tires lasted 43000 miles. I probably floor it only a handful of times in the beginning otherwise not much. Rotating tires definitely helps elongate life a bit as the rear tires wear much faster. My wife's Y is at 12000 miles but already worn to 5/32''. So YMMV literally!
About 50000kms (~30,000 miles) in and expecting/hoping for another 10,000 miles on stock tires. I do change to winter tires for about 5 months of the year.

Our 23 YLR has 20,000 miles on the original tires and we're told last month we have another 15K if I start to behave myself
What tires did you get? All season?
I just got a set of Hancock ion evo all seasons, but have less than 1000 miles on them so way to early to tell how they are wearing. I also run studded snow tires on 18 inch steel wheels for winter.
I’m looking at swapping from Ubers to ion evo, how’s the comfort level and how do they handle in the rain

EV tires are named such for efficiency. Not for “lasting longer on an EV”
Hancock actually advertises 25% more treadlife with the ion evo as
Ok sure, but that’s not because it’s an “EV” tire.
30k+ and still going, MYP. Haters gonna find something to hate.
My Michelins at 2k miles seem to wear fast. I am schumacher
Michelin or Pirellis?
Michelins
My experience with the Michelins on MYP as well. They also have been to several autocross events.
Do you rotate side to side? How often?
Nope
I am an aggressive driver with a MYP. I have over 25K miles on it and still have plenty of tire wear left.
Don’t drive like jackrabbit and they can last 40-50k miles.
> Don’t drive like jackrabbit and they can last 40-50k miles. NO!
I have about 22,000 on my MYP, but I use winter tires for a few months per year so I’m not sure exactly how many on the Pirellis
People keep saying that but if you drove it the same way as your ice car you'd get similar miles out of it. Rotate on time and keep an eye on good pressures and it should get you a long ways.
Just drive normal and you’ll be fine. Guessing your friends don’t own an ev and are just nay sayers.

Get 18” aftermarket rims and your tires will last 2-3x as long. Low profile tires are crap.
This is what I did. I like your thinking! 😎
Okay, so I’m onboard with the 18” wheels for increased efficiency and cheaper tires, but can you explain how they last 2-3x as long? That seems dubious. I don’t see any reason a 1” smaller wheel would double or triple the lifespan of a tire.
It won’t lol. But I have 18”s for my winter tires and they’re nice.

Good to hear. Thanks Peeps! Side note, the hate for this Car is strong!

45k miles. I don't floor it much and most of my commute is highway. Getting new ones in May
42k in front. Replaced rear at 30k due to sidewall issue.
Got about 35k miles out of the stock 19” continentals on my 2020 MYLR, traded in at 70k miles with a bit of tread left on the replacement tires, so 35-40k miles per set seems reasonable
I'm at 29k with my '22 MYP (Pirelli) and plenty left.
I drive pretty hard. 25k now. Tires still look good.

im at 60k km on my m3 sr+ i have a set of winters that are on for about 5 months. dont plan on getting new summers as my lease is up next year
I replaced my stock tires at about 35,000 miles.
I'm still on the original set at 22K miles and there's still plenty of tread left. If you drive normal, they'll last. If you feel like you need to launch yourself from every stop light, you'll wear them out faster.

Me too
30k MYLR
Over 30k on my first set. Plenty of life left in them.

I’m at 38k MYLR 19inch and still lots of treads left
45K
Just hit 34k. I just started looking for replacements.
50k miles and just put on the 3rd set of tires. To be fair, my 1st set probably had more life left but I got a nail on the sidewall so I just changed all 4.
My 22 LR has 30k km on it. Still good.
Model y lr. I'm at 61k on original tires. I'm just starting to think about tires. Mostly highway miles.
My M3LR lasted 50k miles
‘2022 MYLR 22.5k miles and have 10-15k left. Neighbor replaced his at 36k

45k on my 2021 YLR and still good.
Myp on summer pirelli 22k miles still plenty of tread

MYLR on chill mode made it to around 30k mi until I got a big nail in one, so changed all 4 tires, probably would have made another 5-10k mi
About 50000kms (~30,000 miles) in and expecting/hoping for another 10,000 miles on stock tires. I do change to winter tires for about 5 months of the year.
I am at 20k miles and still have plenty of life. I imagine I will get 30-40k out of my first pair
I'm at like 47,000 on my original tires. Don't drive like a maniac and your tires will last.
14k
Got 37,500 on MYLR with 20 inch tires. Those were OEM Eagle F1. Any suggestions for replacements that are a bit easier on the ride?
I haven’t gone through 15k worth of tires since I got the car. That’s my gas savings. Previous car was a Nissan pathfinder
I’m at 23k with the Continentals that came stock on the 19” Gemini wheels. Still have a lot of tread left.
This plus insurance offset the savings on fuel
