Factory Goodyear tires wear on Cyberbeast at 10,500 miles

[ravedoc]

Took CyberBeast to tesla service center for tire rotation at 10500 miles for first rotation even tho know recommended rotate at 6500 miles. My original Goodyear tires had tire depth of 3 on both front tires and 6 on rear tires. Ended up putting 2 replacement Goodyear tires on front tires and moving 6 depth to back. Any explanation why front tires wearing down quicker and people have similar experience?

Yup, unless your in off road mode and disable some or all of the engine power, it’s biased pull from the fronts mostly. The AWD is opposite. Go to a dirt road somewhere and test it out, listen for which slips first. I got 40k miles outta my fist set of 4, on the second set at 71k miles now.

I have a Beast. 20k miles original tires.
Take turns slowly. Accelerate like crazy everywhere else.

As others stated, beast has a FWD permanent magnetic motor that is always powered and the rears are dragged unless needed. AWD has that permanent magnetic motor in the rear and only uses the front when needed for power/traction.

If you toggle the "slippery surface" in dynamics, it will distribute power more evenly but still bias the front. FWD is better and safer in slippery conditions than rear. Offroad mode lets you manually control the percentages.

found slippery drives much better on the CB feels potent and very planted without a noticeable hit in efficiency around town… why cant it always be this way??

For efficiency/mpge. Even without enabling that option, the traction is so good on Teslas(can adjust each motor 1k/min) that most people don't need full time 4WD.
