FWIW, I'm into my fourth year of (Chinese-built) Model 3 ownership and it's been rock solid, the only services so far were to replace the air filter and wipers.
Besides that, EVs are just really heavy and weight wears out tires. Just a fact of life.

Apparently it's not just the weight, it's the instantaneous torque and noise that need to be considered. Lower noise and higher torque tolerance would, to me, imply a softer rubber compound is used, which would reduce longevity.
On the other hand, they also mention range and rolling resistance, which suggest that a harder compound might be used. Harder rubber typically corresponds to better longevity.
It's an interesting topic. Has anyone done a proper apples-to-apples test of EV tires versus their nearest equivalent "normal" tires?
Grandparent said they were on year four and seemed to be saying they were on the first set of tires, which surprises me.
Rip away center tunnel carpet on rhs (lhd vehicle), remove 2 screws from below glove compartment, fold away panel, remove cap from filter compartment, remove 2 filters - put back together in reverse order.
That's literally a 20 minute job if you about know what you should be doing - a.k.a. read about the process in the free service manual of Tesla (only need an account, free) or watched a YT video...
