Do they put different type of tires on them?

On average, 30K miles is the popular estimate for the OE set, but some Tesla car owners have reported higher ranges. It could also go down to 18K-20K miles depending on driving habits and conditions. Practically, Tesla tires last 20K – 40K miles.

The excessive weight of an EV wears everything out much faster….

I’ve told the tale of our two-year LEAF lease shortly after it came out. It was a great deal for a commuter car with the state and federal tax credits and off peak home electricity rate. But they put these shite-arse Bridgestone Ecopias (dystopias) on them. Barely made it through lease with them.

Know a guy who has a Leaf...it came with Bridgestones (Ecopias, I think). So...that's a pretty standard tire. They are supposed to last 65,000 miles...his wore out around 25,000. Not sure if it's a weight distribution thing, or a 100% torque at starts that wear them faster.
