For those of us where range is key, I for one plan to wait until the all season tires are being offered as a standard option before configuring my cybertruck. The extra 30 miles (hopefully) would be extremely helpful for the frequent long trips we take - itâs not just the extra potential range...
I can see a new business already starting. - CT-fitti ? Or Grafitti-CT? kits. Includes markers, and whatever the heck you need to wipe them off. $29.99. This could actually become a thing. Stainless steel âwhite boardâ as someone previously mentioned.

I thought it looks cool and fun! My wifeâs first comment was â so is this going to be a trend and are you ok with people writing all over your cybertruck?â
I love being able to personalize my vehicle. But I guess you canât fix stupid and some non-owner will decide to write on someone elseâs...
If weâre talking about the same test, Edmunds tested the range using all terrain tires without aero wheel covers. And while their test exceeded the predicted range from Tesla website, they did not test the cybertruck with either all season tires or aero wheel covers.
their test was an average...
And maybe even a little more than is currently being seen once the new aero hubs are re-issued. I know it doesnât seem a lot, but 20 to 30 miles of improvement is indeed a big deal, not just from a stress perspective, but also on charge time as it allows you to drive a little farther and still...
can you please point me to that test? I mustâve missed it. I didnât see anybody testing identically with actual all season on road tires using the same rims as I didnât think they had made that size yet in all season on road tires.
I hear ya. Tight fit in our garage - no room for an additional (unneeded) set of 35â AT tires, and would have a difficult time selling them given our location (rural central PA).
Câmon Tesla, start offering all seasons as an option! Youâll sell at least 2 more FS CTs :giggle: . Anyone else...
this is the first set of all season on road tires that Iâve seen in the size/spec for the cybertruck, at least on tirerack. Michelin defender LTX platinum.
still waiting for all season tires to be an option when configuring foundation series cybertruck. I need the extra range that all season...
Wow â low-tech, and very effective! Thanks for sharing. Although surprised that you didnât put some type of protection cloth between the tonneau edge and the frame of the bikes to prevent scratches.
Did the bikes move around a lot when you made turns? Or did you strap them down somehow in the...
These seem to be âoldâ tires by design (2010) but a new model was launched in 2018 - Pirelli Scorpion AT plus - which seem to have better reviews.

1. Any thoughts as to...
Thanks â it was that thread that actually prompted me to create this post. we donât have quick release on our wheels, so need to somehow secure the bikes as a unit with both wheels on within the bed. Wasnât sure if anybody had found a way to do this yet with straps, maybe even something like...
We want to transport our two e-bikes âinâ the CT when we get it.
1. Anyone transport their e-bikes in the CT bed without removing front wheels? what devices did you use to stabilize the bikes?
2. Anyone transport their bikes on an e-bike rack using the hitch? In this thread I saw with non...
Well, that would be in the eye of the beholder. If you are an off-roader (or simply canât wait and are willing to spend an extra maybe $1,000 to $1500 for four tires later), then itâs a downgrade. On the other hand, if youâre looking for greater range, and longer lasting tires, Itâs an upgrade...
Who knows? I am waiting for all seasons to be offered so I donât have to buy another set of tires later (donât want all terrain) and hopefully eek out some additional range. So if they offer this with FS soon I am in.
speculations:
MICHELIN DEFENDER LTX M/S LT 285/65/R20
or maybe
GoodyearÂź...
Any insider knowledge as to when the CT will be configurable with all season tires?
Any ideas on range improvement they may bring?
Would love to order FS now (got my email) but holding back until better range via tires, chemistry, software tweaks, maybe even range extender.
So close, yet so...
Not so much a hangup, but the difference between what is feasible and what is enjoyable. we drive from PA to SC every 2 mo. with our current S (400 m range) we can make the trip in 10 1/2 hours including charging at 3 stops. With our previous S (320 m range) it took 12 1/2 hours - big...
In Pennsylvania and received invite to configure Foundation CT. And while the âcoolest toyâ part of my brain wants to say yes (Fear Of Missing Out), the practical part of me is saying wait because of FOMR (Fear Of Missing Range). Hear is my calculation (we take frequent 10-12 hour trips in our...
I placed my original reservation (2019) for a trimotor, because that was the variant that got the longest range (500+ - hah!). Now, it looks like the all-wheel-drive version has the longer range. So Iâm very confused â is my original tri-motor order now an all-wheel-drive or a beast?
hoping...
