Is that normal? Can i get tires at any place? He did mention sometime about tires containing foam. Are these special tires that I can only get at Tesla?

I'll keep that in mind. Thanksbut you do have to check the load rating
18" aero on Model 3 LR.You did not mention your tire size. Size matters you know.
Good to know about the decrease in range. It's not that big of a deal for me.I got standard Michelin CrossClimate 2s and have not noticed a big increase in noise and only about a 5% loss in range.
Thanks for all the points! I appreciate it!Why not go to:
I just checked Discount Tire, and they're $985 for 4 tires. Thank you members of TMC!Michelin CrossClimate 2s
Haha agreed. That nitrogen thing is a scam anyways.Do NOT be swayed by marketing schemes requiring foam inserts or runflat capabilities or Nitrogen instead of air - It's all designed to milk you of even more money!
The website says that the size is 235/45ZR18. I'm assuming that is 18"?$914 vs $1600. The price seems right.
Are you sure you have 18” wheels?
I’ve purchased a lot of Michelin tires and have always been happy with them.
Yes. I got a deal on a set of closeout pirelli p7 something for a Volvo for $600 from tire rack. They were quieter then the oem Michelins and got slightly better range. Go figure.The website says that the size is 235/45ZR18. I'm assuming that is 18"?
Look at the side of your tire.The website says that the size is 235/45ZR18. I'm assuming that is 18"?
Oh, you meant the wheels on my car. Yes, they're 18".Look at the side of your tire.
This is not a thing in the USA. Your insurance covers being an idiot and putting the wrong tires on your car. Most states do not have inspections, and there are no laws that you have to follow load ratings on non-commercial vehicles. There are no safety standards in the USA for braking distance or other tire performance.The thing to remember is this: If, god forbid, IF you were involved in an accident and "tires / tyres" were considered a factor for that accident, you would need to be 'safe' in the thought that you had the correct tire/tyre for that car.
Along those lines, Firestone won't work on Teslas. They also won't install non-runflat tires on a car that doesn't have a spare.That being said, a company like Discount Tire won't install the wrong tires on a car.
Wild. 30% of cars in the USA don't come with a spare tire at all and most of those don't run runflats. I haven't owned a car with a spare tire since 2010 and none of them had runflats.They also won't install non-runflat tires on a car that doesn't have a spare.
