Do I need to switch wheels to have All Seasons tires (on Cyberbeast w/ All Terrains)?

[c4b3rTruCker]

I bought my beast with All Terrain Tires. I live up in the NorthWest and will be subject to snow and ice. Would like to get all seasons tires. Do I need to switch rims?

Will the All Seasons be quieter than the All Terrain?

What is the tire life difference between the two?

Please redirect me if this has already been answered somewhere. Apologies and thank you.

I also have all terrain . I read from a couple online reviewers that the AS tire are slightly quieter. Also I believe they get slightly better range. They don’t look as cool since they have plain sidewalls. Maybe check terrace.com to see if they have some snow or OEM all seasons

I agree, the look is better for my already vain truck! I’m wondering if it can really squeeze out another 20ish miles as well.

My opinion: Having good winter tires is going to totally change your experience in snow and ice. All-terrains will do better than all-season, but even the all-terrains aren't siped enough nor soft enough to get good winter traction. To get that, you'll want an all-terrain with the 3-peak winter rating.

A good winter tire is going to wear pretty fast in the summer, make noise, and reduce your range, so it would be worth swapping your tires in the spring and fall. Run the all-season's in the summer, and winter all terrains in winter.

I plan to buy the set of four winter tires/wheels from Tesla to make the swap easy.

If you don't want to buy the set from Tesla, here are some recommendations for all-terrains that do great in winter:

(this is the winter tire that Tesla sells on wheels in it's shop for $3,000/set)

There is a fairly new tire type called All-Weather which, from what I have read, can perform somewhat better than All-Season. One such All-Weather tire is the Michelin Cross climate 2. Does this type of tire exist for the CyberTruck? If so, has anyone installed them?

Do I need to switch rims?

No, you don't need to switch rims. But remounting tires may cost more in the long run than just buying a second set of rims for that second set of tires.

Also, if you only have occasional (or randomly in the other nine months) ice and snow, finding All-Weather tires is recommended.

Some guys point out that dedicated winter tires can outperform all-weather tires; but all-weather tires outperform winter tires in wet or rainy weather. And I'd point out that my all-weather tires are only really weird in hot-hot weather, and perform adequately in ice, snow, and rain.

You can always find tires which work better in any one road and weather type, and they'll always be exceeded in some other specialty. Even winter tires are split between wet performance, snow performance, and ice performance.

Now, the size the Cybertruck uses?

Well, there are options. Also remember that tires will have a weight rating which isn't usually in their size.

I put some cross climates on our Subaru outback as we spend a lot of time in the mountains with snow. I think it’s a good all-around tire for most people however I was shocked how poor the stopping performance was on a downhill slope near freezing with compact snow and ice. It felt like it took 75 yards to stop the car relative to half that in our Tesla model three with Nokian winter tires.

If you spend a lot of time on snow and ice like I do get a dedicated true winter tire and deal with the fast tire wear as an insurance cost. Or gets chains as an add-on when it’s especially slippery.
