After only 6,251 kilometers of careful driving, a Tesla Cybertruck owner discovered his Goodyear Territory All-Terrain tires were nearly worn out. The unexpected tire degradation is sparking discussions about the impact of heavy EVs on tire lifespan.
Tesla Cybertruck Tire Wear Problem
After just 6,251 kilometers of ownership, a Tesla Cybertruck owner is expressing his displeasure since his tires are almost worn out.
There is no mileage warranty on these tires, but he says he has taken great care of them up to this point. In the future, he will need to decide whether performance or lengthy tread life is more important to him.
Shredded Tires at 6,250 Miles
Someone on TeslaCybertruckOwners Forum.com claims that he has been extremely cautious in adhering to Tesla's instructions. His truck was due for its first tire rotation at 6,250 miles, and when he got there, the facility informed him that his tires were almost flat.
This particular set of tires is a set of Goodyear Territory All-Terrain tires, and their guarantee is for a whopping 0 miles. According to the owner, the rear tires are now at 5/3, and the front tires are at 4/32. The tread depth doesn't change the fact that the rubber appears harsh.
According to MSN, the tread blocks' edges are slightly shredded all across the tire. This kind of wear is extremely unusual, as someone who has owned a wheel and tire store for a while can tell you with certainty.
Heavy Electric Vehicles Cause Tire Stress
There could be a more straightforward solution, but it's likely that this specific set of tires causes the problem. These tires are responsible for channeling the Cybertruck's immense power.
This large Tesla isn't the sole electric vehicle that has this kind of problem. Tire wear in as low as 6,000 miles was reported by Rivian owners more than a year ago.
Rivian Owners Report Similar Issues
Importantly, the R1T and R1S were able to pull this off by switching to "Conserve" mode, which makes them act like front-wheel drive. It puts twice as much pressure on the tires, causing them to wear out faster. Tire wear is also significantly affected by a Rivian's extremely heavy weight.
