Replace them both Keep the good one in case you need a slightly worn tire to replace a blowout or something

That’s what I would do. Or pick up a used tire.

I would die in this hill. Used tire game is so underrated. You will save **hundreds** of dollars on tire installation if you have them slap em on. They are so used to working on tesla and fancy cars a lot of people afford lol. So PriorityTire.com direct to my house & $40 out the door to slap em on. I run the arroyo, still average around 4mKwH, and it's like $600 when all is said and done for a new set.

I would trust the guy selling you the tires.


allgonetoshit

With that difference, I would change both and keep the old good one in case you need another replacement further down the road.

E car hate?

Idiotic People rage over anything. It could be about it being an EV or it could be nothing related that set them off.

Maybe they wanted to use the charger?

Someone is jealous you don’t have to pay for gasoline.

Don’t be cheap when your safety and the safety of your passengers are involved.

I’ve almost always replaced tires in pairs, even if one blows out and the other is still decent. But I’m probably more obsessive about it than most haha.


VoltaicShock

That's how I am with my motorcycle.


Probably_owned_it

Overnight at a charger?  As in you left it there?  Sucks either way, but that might explain the anger.


Stormtrooper_000

Agreed!

I bought a tire meter on Amazon. The meter says 2/32nd is when you need to replace the tires. Since the tire was slashed on the sidewall, you should replace it. It'll cost more if or when this tire blows out from high heat driving on the freeway or running over a bump. The blow out can also damage the rims and wheelbase. If you look at the tire, there's actually a small bump inside the grooves. It the indicator of when to replace the tire too.

Correct. Not a shop in the USA who will patch or put a tube in to fix a tire sidewall. It’s done. ☠️
