Tire rotation...needed??

[CyberTexas]

So, question…CT has 4-wheel steering and AWD. Is there a reason to rotate tires then?

Yes. The alignment of each wheel can be slightly different so rotations should help them wear evenly. I rotate mine every 5k miles. I’m a former Toyota guy so the 5k rotation is all I know. It’s easier to remember, unlike the 6200 miles Tesla recommends.

I recommend rotating them or at least checking them every 5-6k miles. I am finding on the AWD the rear seem to go a little faster.

I do 5K also. Because why not? Easy enough to do yourself, especially if you rotate in a spare.

Its a car, so yes it makes sense. Wear is almost always uneven and rotating the tires helps.

This is an excellent reason to get a spare in my opinion. I’ve had lots of opportunities to get a core one but I’m waiting on a decently priced AT so I can incorporate it into the schedule.

Do you have cybers or cores? I forget now. Every time I see your truck I’m looking for the next Bluey Easter egg you’ve added.

Every 10,000 kms

That’s where Tesla gets their 6,250 miles from. My condolences on the World Series btw, fellow Cybertrucker

I have cybers. Everyone always seems to be selling cores where I live. Teslas spare seems overpriced to me especially since I own all the other stuff I need from that box thing.
Cool cheapie cover though. Has a triangle on it and a seatbelt.

Great way to advertise a proud Canadian heritage. Love it.

Yeah. If they’re like me they got the truck with cores seeing a $3,000 cyber wheel and tire package in the shop and a $3,500 upcharge for cybers when ordering. Saving $500 and having 4 extra wheels sounded like a no brainer. My latest venture finally wore out my Pirellis so I have cybers and duratracks mounted now. I’m keeping my cores around for drag strip use and taking the cybers to discount tire for future new tires.

Can you buy just the cheapie cover with seatbelts?

I didn’t know this was the case. Both my FS came with Cybers already on them. That’s absolutely a no brainer.

Interesting. Don’t know if Tesla sells that as a separate part.
