Why are Tesla rims so expensive?
Tesla’s Dedicated Tire Brands. Tesla collaborates with several well-known tire brands to meet its performance and safety requirements. These collaborations result in tires that are specifically designed for Tesla’s vehicles, and the premium quality of these tires contributes to their high cost. Tesla approved tires are identified by the T-mark on the tire sidewall, which indicates a specific tire model’s progression according to Tesla specifications. For example, a T1 Michelin Primacy is newer than a T0 Michelin Primacy, but is not necessarily newer than other models of T0 tires.
Do Tesla tires wear out faster?

While this design enhances performance, it makes the tires more prone to rapid wear. Severe negative camber and heavy vehicle weight contribute to rapid tire wear. Enormous torque and low profile tires make the vehicle susceptible to flats and blowouts. Troubleshooting Tesla Plaid tire flats is crucial for maintaining vehicle safety and performance.
