How To Change Tire Type On FS Order?

[mrbulk]

What if you want all-season street tires on the FS vs. all-terrain? Think we can request a substitution? I readily admit I will be using my Beast mostly as a lifestyle truck, meaning nearly never gonna off-road unless I find myself in an unforeseen situation.

Doubt this will be an option as the regular tire has no information available to public domain just yet. I also think the wheel covers on these tires are specific if you notice the tire design matches the covers. This leads me to believe this off-road tire is an upgraded option as well.

You'll have to take delivery as-is and change them yourself. 0% chance Tesla chances this for you.

Well, once they have them in stock, Tesla would, but until then, no, there's no option to change your tires.

That's okay, it's good to have different tires for different uses. The sidewall seems to indicate the AT tires are also M+S but as we've seen, that only goes so far. But just that is a reason to keep them, even if you only use them a few months out of the year.

Yep, thought that went without saying.

Well dang it - maybe at some future time I can set up a swap with a non-FS owner. Depends how much more the AT tire option will be when they reveal more of the options price list...come to think of it, whey haven't they already?

...Because it's not even March yet?

Give them time.

Me too.

I'm planning a 4000-mile road trip next summer, should I swap out the AT tires? The AS tires will have better efficiency and comfort...

The easiest is probably finding a non-Foundation CT owner that wants to swap, but there won't be many of those around in the short term.

I'm not sure if the AT tires will offer any tread ware longevity, but if my Model X is any indication, it won't be too long before you'll need to replace those OEM AT tires. My initial OEM Model X tires lasted 15k miles and wore to the belts on the rears. It was partially due to poor camber from the factory, but even after I replaced with non-EV tires marketed tires, I'm seeing 30-35k miles before I need to replace the rears (staggered sizes, directional). I also swap out for snow tires for almost half the year too. I'll probably just wear out the OEM ATs then replace them with something else all season, non-AT if I can find it.

I’m not confident there will be non FS in 2024 period. If they’re projecting late 2024 for CyberBeast delivery, I can’t imagine they could take non FS orders and be able to deliver in 2024.

Foundation is a package, take it or leave it.

A single package will also make it easer for the factory to tune itself.

Generally, with the first set of tires, the problem isn't the tires, it's the weight of the foot hitting the accelerator.

First tires often go really fast!!!
