I own a 2024 Tesla Model 3 Long Range with the standard aero wheels, and I am around 17,500 miles at 1 day past 1 full year of ownership. Needless to say, I think I only have 1 more year before I need to start thinking about tire replacements (probably less than a year). So my question to you guys is, what tires are you using? Are you sticking with OEM tires like the Michelin Primacy A/S or Hankook Ventus S1 AS? Or are you using other tire brands or similar brands but different models?
I currently have the factory OEM Hankook Ventus S1 AS tires. They aren't terrible but leave a bit to be desired in terms of longevity and wet performance, especially when they start getting on the lower end of their tread life. Noise and comfort is all around pretty good, but I wish it could have that same level of noise reduction without the foam. Having the foam means when you get a flat tire due to a nail or other object, it needs to be removed, sometimes making tire repairs more expensive. Dry performance is great for my needs (not really a spirited driver, and mostly keep it in chill mode).
Anyway, post your thoughts below, let me know what tires I should look at. Currently, on my list of interesting tires are the Michelin CrossClimate 2, Continental ProContact, and Hankook Kinergy EV AS.
