Tire wear - how soon are people changing them?

[iansriv]

26K on 20" ATs. Never rotated...I know...I am an idiot...but the fronts are mostly smoked.

That said, I also, stupidly, rocked the conserve mode for much of that. I can probably get 30-32K if I rotate them now.

That's great! Just had the 7.5k service and the tech said he's seeing 20k on average on the 20s. I'm rotating every 5k and would be very happy if these get to 30k.

I keep having this issue. One at day two of ownership and another yesterday. Sheesh

That sucks. I had two flats within a few weeks of getting the new R1. Had not had a flat for years on my other cars. Now that I have a spare and the DT warranty; I'll probably never get a flat again.

Dang! You may be one of the mileage leaders on OEMs. And this is in Phoenix? There goes the idea that heat chews through them faster. Driving conservatively? How much Conserve mode? Are roads fairly smooth there? Need all the info, haha!

Well, I live in phoenix, but not all the time! Heat is not an issue because we are reverse snowbirds. 'We head to WA in the summer.

Probably 500 miles in conserve. When I felt I had to stretch range to get to my planned charger. So 3x 1800 miles are highway miles from PHX to WA and back and now in WA again. That's 25% of my total miles to date. The rest of the miles are local in PHX, but a lot of local PHX miles are highway too. All in Standard mode.

I do not drive to save tire wear, but I must drive fairly conservatively. I'll bet lots of R1 owners are getting 25k-30k on OEM 21's.

Is that quad or quaid?

Sorry couldn't help myself.

I just did a tire rotation and balancing at 15k miles and discount tire told me that tires are looking good. Hopefully they can survive until the next rotation. Quad with OEM 21.

I just yesterday replaced my 4 22s with new Michelin Defender LTX M/S2's; they are MUCH quieter.

The fronts were down to 3/32, rears at 4/32 at a very early 15.6K miles.

Need an intervention for my constant need for acceleration and subsequent tire destruction; eesh.

I'm on 2022 R1T Quad 21 OEM tires with just over 31K miles after 2 yrs. It's my daily driver. Down to 4/32 now and will need to replace them all before the winter season. Hoping Michelin will have their equivalent 21 size available then.

Start the reactor!

24K on our original 21's. They still look like they have plenty of life left.
