Goodyear ElectricDrive 2 Tires

[bluenycom]

The 1st gen was so shitty. Didn’t last long on my M3.

I have different experience on my MYLR with 20k+ miles so far. Look like I can do another 20k+. They ride softer with good wet traction. They are less efficient as OEM Continental.

gen 1 wasnt good at all for me

I have had the first gen for a little over a year now. They are much quieter than the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 All Seasons I had before. They are also MUCH more efficient than the Michelins.

What size?

How about following the manual? It says these tires are the best for the Tesla Vehicle. You should also look for the "T" (Tesla Approved) Symbol on the sidewall:

Refer to the following table for information on the tires recommended and sold at Tesla Service Centers.

Perhaps a little more details about your experience with the tires so readers/potential buyers, can understand the issues.

255/45 r19 - the stock 19" size.

I had posted separately before.
In a nutshell, less mileage, harder ride, quieter than Contis.

I have the Ions now, so far so good

Hence the question which got this answer:

255/45 r19 - the stock 19" size.

Very confusing.

Unlikely they are sold here but maybe worth looking after all?

Load range SL.

I will be putting Ions on my car tomorrow. Got 26k out of the Cont RX - could have gotten a few thousand more on them but one of them has developed a slow leak that I need to top off every few days. Looking forward to a better ride and longer range with the new Ions. Plus they have a 50k warranty (We'll see about that.)

They are a bit crafty offering up EV tyres with only SL rating. No warranty expressed or implied when you put them on a Tesla.

------ I know this is a thread about Goodyear tires, and don't mean to hijack this thread -----
Just a note - pretty early to tell with only 200 miles on them - but - it seems that they are a little quieter with less noise transferred when going over cracks in the highway. Couldn't tell about range, as I took all back roads and didn't take it over 60mph. - wanted to break the tires in before I open it up. The tread depth is about 10\32. Not real fond of the looks of the sidewalls, but the tread itself is pretty impressive. It did take three and a half weeks for my local tire shop to get them in.
