    I found this video because I was in a similar situation. Went to get tires rotated and was told they recommend them be replaced asap. I do admit the inside are more worn, but its a shame because the rest of the tire seems to have some tread left. This was after almost 3 years and about 25K miles.

  • @jalee6587
    @jalee6587 3 роки тому +5

    The mileage guarantee doesn't do that much. They will only prorate a credit towards new tires. So if your warranty is 40k miles and your tires wear out at 30k that means they will only give you 25% off a new set.

    26,000 miles in 6 months... I thought me doing 30,000 miles in 1 year was a lot. Haha. You just need a camber kit and probably add half a degree of positive camber.

  • @TheDonkee1976
    @TheDonkee1976 5 років тому +1

    Sorry sir, if the camber, alignment or anything like that is not right. And you went in with tires that looked like this, the warrantee would be voided. They would also pick apart how heavy the car is. My guess is there is a problem with the weight of the car not being properly supported causing the wheels to tilt. My bet is there will be a recall for these cars if this becomes too common...

    My tire situation with my Tesla has been pretty close to yours. Not good. However, my right rear tire made it 50,311 miles before finally replacing it. Other than that, I have yet to get more than 33,000 miles out of the continentals. As of last week, I am now riding on Pirelli Scorpions all the way around which are guaranteed for 55,000 miles. We shall see...

  • @ReinhardSchuster

    30.000 miles is a lot. i never had any tire lasting longer than 40.000 km wich is about 25.000 miles. replacing tires every 20-30k km is pretty normal in Central Europe, and we need Summer and Winter tires because right now we have 15 cm Snow since yesterday.

      Tesla’s EAT tires. High torque EVs in general do due to weight. Sans alignment the cars will still eat tires. My first tires only lasted 20k miles. I have dual motor with acceleration boost for reference. If I drove on chill mode maybe…. But then why. It’s for sure unknown cost of having Tesla.
      By the way, tire warranties are usually bunk with lots of requirements and outs.

    I am replacing my model 3 stock tires after 16k miles only. Tire treads is gone and i don't drive that much. The mechanic at the tire shop mentioned that it is a common problem with electric cars (not just Teslas). The real culprit is the instant torque that grinds the tire. Also, Tesla installs W series tires which are marked for 150 mph speed (these tires are installed in performance cars for tighter road grip and these tires are made from softer compounds which means short span). I switched my tires to V series.

    I went through 2 set of rear continental tires in 1.5 year and 60000 km
    Now I switched to Toyo proxis 3
    These are non asmetrical tires and rated at 40000 miles compare to 30000 miles for continental tires
    Other thing I find interesting with these is that tire shop told me that about 20000 km I should get the tires I mounted and rotate so inside of the tire become out side and I should be able to get more km on these and the cost me $300/tire compare to $450 for continental
    Hope this help someone

      I agree. Most rear wheel drive cars are supposed to cross the tires during rotations, but Tesla seems to like to recommend just moving front to back, which could exacerbate this problem.

  • @ryanr6466
    @ryanr6466 Рік тому

    The issue is actually caused by acceleration and the car squatting. A car with independent rear suspension this kind of tire wear is common. When a car has that kind of torque it causes the suspension to give more and the tires will lean inwards and now the tires are no longer flat on the pavement. The are now riding on the inside tread. that causes the inside to wear. I have a model 3 performance and it does the same thing. It also is common in high torque muscle cars also, like the Camaro, Mustang, and Dodge Challenger.

  • @Ace1000ks

    It is due to the weight of the Tesla Model 3, which is about 4800 lbs! Heavy car implies faster tire wear.

  • @TommyboyGTP
    @TommyboyGTP 7 років тому +4

    The weight on tire life is a factor for sure, and that type of tire wear on the insides is due to too much toe out. Get that alignment done and get it as neutral as possible. Porsche had a similar issue with the Cayenne when it first came out because of too much toe out and they would eat tires up quick.

    Are you lowering the suspension a lot? I own a Tesla and they told me that when you drop the suspension a lot it will wear inside. If you are highway driving and the setting automatically drops the hight you may not even realize. Having said that 27000 miles in 6 months is heavy driving and the heat you will generate from long trips also helps wear.

      Get rid of it and get a Toyota. That's what I'll probably do. Buying tires every 9 months is an additional $250ish a month on your car payment at least. Plus, the $200 a month for self-driving. Not enough bang for your buck, IMO. Just not worth it yet.

      It’s strange that only the rear tires have wear on the inside, and need to be replaced, if you already rotated the tires 4-5 times. You didn’t show the tread on the front tires, but they should be needing replacement too, or this final rotation would let you get 5000 more miles before they all need replacement.

    Ok, I get "the car is heavy," but that tire should not wear that way...obviously, so you need to make another camber adjustment on the rear...which Tesla is not setup for. Therefore, it requires the purchase of adjustable suspension components. This might be the better route financially speaking, if you drive a ton. Those tires will add up!

    The mileage on the tires won’t be recognized by the seller because they know it’s Tesla’s design and the tires warranty won’t help with new tires. You need to take your Tesla to a professional tire alignment center and have them adjust your rear alignment, that’s the only way to stop that from happening. Good luck, did you rotate those tires, front to back. You will get another couple of thousand miles on them, but get your rear aligned.

I purchase the middle grade tires and save more money that way at $150 per tire. I rotate and flip them inside out every 3500-4000 miles because they tread uneven due to the camber imbalance.

    This is helpful. With less than 7,000 miles on my brand new Tesla Model Y I took my car to have my tires rotated. To my alarm, the inside tread on the front tires were bald and would not pass the state inspection. It was clear that Tesla delivered the car without aligning the tires. I notified Tesla in Peabody believing that this was clearly a warranty issue. His reply: Good Afternoon John,
    This is Blake from Tesla Service in Peabody. Unfortunately, both alignments and tires are not covered under your vehicle warranty as they are a wear and tear item.
    There are many factors which contribute to a vehicle's alignment which could have led to the kind of wear in the photos.
    We can keep the appointment for the 3rd at this time so that we can order 4 new tires if you wish. We can send you the estimate for them and the alignment through the app or I can attach it to this email if you prefer.

  • @scoty_does
    @scoty_does 11 місяців тому

    Tesla likes the car to have negative camber (wears out the inside of the tire). The tread should be flat on the road and that's not how tesla sets it up. Which wears out tires faster. The inside edge is making too much contact on the back tires.
    Things you can do.
    1. rotate every 7000 miles.
    2. Take it to a third party alignment shop and have them fix the negative camber on your rear tires so they wear evenly. Tesla won't fix this.

    Tesla may have said everything was fine but they lied because alignment is not a routine thing to check unless there is an apparent problem or you request it and pay for it. Where this tire is worn it looks like it is rubbing against something when turning. Does not look like toe or camber problem.

      And then they gotta replace the tires two thousand dollars every six months what a bunch of suckers.

    Rapid tire wear is just one of the many things Elon Musk neglects to mention when he’s bragging about Teslas. If anything, I’m surprised you got the tire life that you did. I grind through Pirelli P-Zero’s on the rear of my Jaguar F-Type in about 23,000 miles of daily driving. That car has 500 ft-lbs of torque and weighs about 3,800 lbs. Frankly, I would think a Model S might go through a set of equivalent tires even faster considering it has 800+ ft-lbs of torque and weighs about 4,800 lbs.

    So an idle vehicle will wear out tires in 6 months? You couldn't see the thin tread? Tires on new cars wear out faster because it's softer compound because the manufacturer wants a soft ride. I think they want better grip too. 30k on tires would be typical for new car tires so stop whining.

    • @jalee6587
      @jalee6587 3 роки тому

      Yes most manufactures of performance car put very soft compound tires on because it offers good grip and cornering. But they wear out quite fast.

    Replacing tires on a 6 month old car is not a thing. I'm a mechanic. It's the rear camber that is out due to a poor build quality. For whatever reason, Tesla is choosing to make an inferior product. You'll genuinely get better value/quality and bang for your buck with a $30,000 Ford Escape.

    The premise of this video is absolutely ridiculous.
    Tire life has absolutely nothing to do with chronology (time) and everything to do with mileage. You’ve got super high mileage out of the tires and you can’t complain. Very unrealistic.

    Gotta love some of these ignorant Tesla hater comments. 30k is not that bad BUT there are two causes of the inside wear (1) negative camber and likely more important in your case (2) the rear alignment is off. I’d have your SC or a competent tire shop check the alignment. For comparison, I also have a 2016 535i with only 300hp/300tq and the rear tires are toast after 20k miles of mixed driving. With my M3 I was elated to get close to 20k. It would take the avg person 2 years to drive 30k miles. I think most people would be happy to get 2 years of driving out of their lg sport sedan tires.

    • @chrisjones7783
      @chrisjones7783 7 років тому +2

      50-60k would be a dream! The absolute most I've gotten out of a set of tires is 40k and that was super even wear right past the wear indicators. Generally I'm about 30-35k even with 75k tires. All non-tesla cars. The bright side is with a warranty on 75k tires I make out pretty well. The downside is, the tire stores I've used (Costco and Discount Tire) require even wear. Discount tire is much more liberal but Costco is ridiculously strict. They make it near impossible for you to claim the tire warranty. The way Sean's tires are worn would not be warrantied at either location but especially not at Costco. If you have a hint of uneven tire wear they will void the warranty without hesitation. It's almost like they get commission for voiding warranties.

    Didn't matter if IT'S EV or ICE car, tire should be 100% flat to the ground. Tesla is smoking. So they will replace the tire under warranty? Also of course harder tire will not wear as fast. Common sense. For this, I'll stay away from Tesla until they address this. So far it's still for the rich.
