Epic Fail! - Cyberbeast - Tires shot at 6251 miles!!!

[M0unt41nm4n]

They had quite a few options including the OEM ones. I selected a 3 peak snow rated tire since we are now going to go into winter months and it does snow in Colorado. When the spring thaw hits; I may get a different rated set to put on for summer.

Stay away from OEM. They are crap. Go check consumer reports and see who gets the good ratings and get ones with a warranty. Several here have mentioned good tires to get and I would start with those.

As for alignment… no way. Alignment issues show extreme wear on the sides depending on which way it’s misaligned. It’s fairly evident. Middle wear is due to over inflation. Both side even wear is due to under inflation or bad suspension. Yours looks to me like either torque launching or heavy off-road use. The “chunking” is generally an off-roading symptom and I have that on my Jeep Gladiator Nitto Trail Grapplers with only 6k miles on them. It’s the stress of rock crawling. If you say you do niether, then you are just victim to crappy OEM tires and possibly just got a bad batch.

You can get a nice set of tires with a warranty now and not have to get something in Spring unless you like wasting money. As I personally advocated before, get a set of BFG KO3s. They have a nice warranty and a tread twice as thick as the OEM. They do great in snow. It’ll take a long time to wear down that tread unless you are constantly launching them. I just put a set on my wife’s F150. They look dynamite.

I am getting the Kumho Road Venture AT52. It's 3 snow peak rated and all terrain. 72 reviews has 4.5 stars out of 5 on tirerack and their test report looks good. Comes with 50,000 mile treadwear warranty. Installation on Monday. Found it at a great price on Discount Tire.

Sounds like you made a good decision.

Well you’re in luck because I do happen to have a set with less then 100
Miles on them on the low low ?

Honestly I haven't even givin it a lot of thought, just ordered my new stuff today but I can check out prices and see what people are asking. I know for both wheels and tires here in LA people are asking $2200. But anyway I would be more then fair.

Just to be perfectly clear, I'm not buying... was just curious what a lightly used set is going for on the secondary market.

Is there an equivalent or better capability to the OEM tire, but made by Michelin?

If you want the H speed rating on 130 mph then there is only one tire and its the goodyear.
Michelin has a great all season that is S rated 112 mph and has a 70K treadwear warranty.
There are several All Terrain options made many manufacturers that are S rated 112 mph with 50K treadwear warranty. Some of these are even 3 peak snow rated.
Depends on where you live and where you drive.

At 6251 miles the H speed rated tire on the Cyberbeast is down to 5/32 and 4/32 with irregular degradation.

Got my Cyberbeast on June 25th. Truck has always been driven ONLY on streets and highways. Never taken off road. Never hit top speed of 132 mph. Yes did experience the beast mode and 0 to 60 in 2.6 a few times.
Yesterday I was going to go to get tires rotated as recommened in the manual at 6250. Truck is a t 6251 miles AND.... I noticed tread is low.

I measured it. 5/32 on rears and 4/32 on fronts. WOW! That's insane!

I did some research and the H speed rated tire has a sticker rubber. But for it to last just 6K to 7K miles on the Cybebeast has to be a manufacturing defect. These tires are specially made for the Cybebeast so for them to be this bad is unforgivable. I have an appointment on Oct 1st to discuss this with TESLA.

Check out the photos at 6251 miles.

I own large and heavy trucks. All my trucks are usually around 7000 pound and I get at least 50,000 miles for a set of tires. I have a raptor with 600 hp and It’s just shy of 7000 pounds and I still have lots of tread left after 30,000 miles so I can’t just be due to the weight and horsepower.

I agree. What rated tires do you have on your raptor? S rated? I am getting new S rated ones on Monday.
