What's the efficiency rate you're getting on these? I have 19 in wheels on my model 3 and I have worn through my Falken Azenis 4K460s for about 20K which got me about 265 Wh/m. I am hoping these are far more efficient even with my heavy foot.
Thanks for the video sir. Would like to ask how quiet the car is after the replacement? If you have t measured it maybe you could give a relative description in comparison to other cars? Thanks
Well ma’am, rotating the front wheels of a vehicle compared to the rear wheels is primarily done to ensure even tire wear and extend the life of the tires. Here’s why- 1. Driving Forces • On front-wheel-drive vehicles, the front tires handle both steering and power transmission, leading to faster wear. • On rear-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive vehicles, the driving forces are distributed differently, but the front tires still handle steering and braking. 3. Steering Stress • The front tires experience additional wear because they are used for turning, which places uneven forces on the tread compared to rear tires that follow the direction of the front wheels. 4. Braking • During braking, weight shifts to the front of the vehicle, increasing pressure on the front tires and accelerating their wear. Benefits of Rotating Tires: • Rotating tires ensures that all tires wear evenly, improving handling and safety. • It extends the overall life of the tire set, reducing the frequency and cost of replacement. • It helps maintain consistent tread depth, which is important for traction and fuel efficiency. When Should You Rotate Tires? Typically, tires should be rotated every 5,000 to 8,000 miles, or as recommended by the vehicle manufacturer. The rotation pattern (e.g., front-to-back, cross-pattern) will depend on the vehicle’s drivetrain and the type of tires. Let me know if you still have questions…..😎
@@CupidinColorado Nice copy and paste job.. Glad to see you can use google....sheeple....Anyways. He clearly stated he has no increased wear on front vs rear after 16000 miles, so everything you said is incorrect. Furthermore, Elon talks about why you don't need to rotate tires on a Tesla...I'm sure you can find it. And furthermore, if you had any clue what you were talking about you'd know most cars (RWD) the rears wear faster and thus rotated to the front; not becuz if your made up steering and braking stresses.
Personally, my front Model Y Performance tires have always worn out faster than the rear ones- This ‘scientific’ answer came from Chat gpt actually… all good though my motoring friend and a blessed 2025 to you as well!
I don't have a db meter, but it does seem to be quieter, and the most noticeable thing was the smoothness when driving over small potholes or bumps/cracks on the road. The true question is would I buy them again, yes for sure. thanks for watching
Great Video. I'm buying a used 2022 Model 3 Long Range like yours which I'll pickup on 24-10-15. I need some all seasons as they come with brand new winters. I was thinking of buying the Hankook Ion EVO AS too. 2 questions: 1) I know you are at 8/32 on 16000 miles but do you know what was the tread depth when you first got them brand new? 2) Also any idea what you spent in CAD? I'm in Toronto and I found someone selling for $1050+tx for 4 tires. Just wondering if that's a good deal or if I should just use the winters I have now and wait till spring if there's likelihood of better deals then. Thanks
That's a great price. I paid much more. Not sure what the original tread depth is but I can still say I'm happy with the tires and will buy again. thanks for watching
@@BCTeslaGuy I have a long range model y, and at 15k miles, the tire store said I need new tires..It's at level 4 tread, according to discount tire? Does this sound right? I don't drive fast.........................................
What wheels and tire combination do your have? I would go to another tire shop and get a second opinion. I only got about 20k miles on my original OEM tires. The Hankook tires are doing much better.
Hi there, am going to buy from discount tire in Bellingham as well, did you declare them on your way back? If so how much was did it cost? Was it gst only? Thanks from fellow Canadian in new west.
Yes, I did declare them. We were in the US for a week, and when we returned, we got lucky, and the guy just said go ahead, have a good day. I bought tires in the past and returned the same day and had to pay. Can't remember the exact amount, but it was too much.
Thanks for the review! I am sold on the Ions BUT they come in so few sizes . . . only 1 in 18" and not in my size (Ioniq 6). The ION AS SUV has 2 sizes but again not in mine. Too bad. The Hankook Ventus S2 AS were stock on my car and are ok but they wear fast (35,000 km).
I have these tires and they’re awesome. It is quieter than the OEM. The range is about the same.
Nice! Thanks for watchimg
I'll consider those tires when the existing are starting to wear out. Thanks for sharing.
Cool, glad you liked the suggestion!
@@BCTeslaGuy btw where's the Tesla hat?
What are the wheels you have on that Tesla? They look nice.
I got the same tyre on my Model Y and it’s so much better than the stock tyre. Will definitely buy again
Glad you're happy with them!

I have them as well. Highly recommend them as well great all around tire
Agreed!
Waiting for a set of these for my Audi e-tron. How do these Hankooks do in snow?
Thanks for making these videos.
My pleasure!
Thanks for the video sir.

didn't measure it but I can tell you it is quieter. thanks for watching
Will this work on model 3 performance?
Even if the tread is the same all around, it is still a good idea to swap fronts for rears due to the extra stress put on the fronts…
What extra stress? Where do you people come up with this garbage.

How does it perform during rain? I saw some tesla 3 doing hydroplane
No issues at all. Will buy again. thanks for watching
How is the performance in snow?
good
Are they quiet?? How many db at 75mph? Is the ride bumpier?
I don't have a db meter, but it does seem to be quieter, and the most noticeable thing was the smoothness when driving over small potholes or bumps/cracks on the road. The true question is would I buy them again, yes for sure. thanks for watching

Do they have them also a swinter and summer tires? We have quite some snow in winter, so I am not sure AS will do the trick.
yes they do. Here is the link to their website. www.hankooktire.com/
Man 23k sucks, why do you think that happened?
I’ve gotten over 50k on my stock 19” Continentals.
Did you get premature wear on the shoulders?
All the tires were the same. No premature wear. Thanks for watching
Same with our Conti's wear is very good and lastly well. We have 37,000 on them....
Nice, thanks for sharing
@@BCTeslaGuy getting 23k out of a 40k tire doesn’t make sense to me. Do you drive hard?
not really, but I have done a few tests of 0-60 on that set and a few on my new set. thanks for watching

Discount tire employees are minimum wage and don’t actually know about maintenance. You definitely should be rotating tires every 5-7k miles.
