Hate Goodyear’s Cybertruck Tire

[TexasRaider]

Yeah, mine are toast after about 20,000 miles. I ordered the Michelin LTX Platinum's from costco today and will have them installed at the end of the month. The aero covers are a hassle if you go off road, just get center caps and call it a day.

Ditto.
My originals latest about 20/22k miles.
Unfortunately, tires that come in new vehicles aren’t covered by warranties as when you buy them from Discount Tire / CostCo / Walmart.
1st world problems . .

I’m at ~36k miles (total) and around 16k miles in my LTX. No issues. But, yes I only use the center cap covers. I don’t appreciate the look of the Aero covers. (Even though they provide efficiency)

Any update?

The tires are excellent so far! I don't notice any significant differences in noise or range. I am assuming that the range will take a slight hit because these are a bit more aggressive and therefore less efficient? I think the look is much better than the OEM Pirelli's AND these are Tripple Peak rated so that is an added benefit. Supposedly they have a 40K mi warranty but I'm not holding my breath being able to claim that if and when... The tread depth is much deeper than the stock ones also, like 14mm vs 9 or 10.

then so am I. I got 42000 on the first set. Have 21000 on the second set and plenty of meat left.

Add me to the lucky pile. Almost 40k on these and still going. Fluffy's had more hard launches than a college coed.

Wow they look amazing. This just sealed the deal for me. Thank you!

I just ordered these NEW Pirelli Scorpion XTM AT EV rated tires… I got about 12,000mi out of my first set of the factory Pirelli tires!

I am interested in these and looking forward to hear your experience after a few thousand miles!

Very much interested in your assessment after few miles!

I finally got my new XTMs on my CT. I love these things! I was afraid of them being more noise but no difference in noise compared to my OEM pirellis. And they look Aaamazing!

I’ve had the 20” Cybertruck tire for just over a year and they’re worn out! 16,000 miles and they’re done! What? And that just part of the bad news. The sound deadening foam pad that is inside the tire has a major problem of delaminating. When that happens, wheels are out of balance. I’ve had to take the wheels off several time and plead with Goodyear to warranty it. Not easy. And Tesla stays out of it. I’ve paid for road force balancing just to get it right at 80 mph. Still shaky off and on around 80-85. But now, it’s below spec on tread depth after 16 months of ownership. This is all unacceptable! And now, the replacement tires that work best are Michelin Defender LTX (great traction, Quiet, long life by 4x). However, they won’t look right with the aero covers that’s so iconic Cybertruck! Ugh….hate this.

Bro its a tire. Change it. Is this your first truck? LOL

XTMs look to be the GOAT tire for the CT for a offroading hybrid tire. I love the Dura trac RT 2s but i think XTM would be next to get some more range in while maintaining the offroad viablity.

I have these and love them. Have 5,700 miles on them so far.

33,400 miles on the truck with average of 371 wh/m.

Last 200 miles is 378 wh/m.

5,700 miles with these tires averages 401 wh/mi.



I first went with the Goodyears since these tires were not yet available through Les Schwab and noticed a much higher wh/m with those for the 2,400 miles i had them on. I think it was about 410 - 415 wh/m. The Goodyears also felt rather 'splashy', dull, and heavy. These are a night and day difference. Mine have a 55k mile warranty though, maybe that's a Les Schwab deal. Ran over a shard of metal which completely took out the inner side wall and Les Schwab had to replace it. I can say, looking at the inner cross section, these are very well made.

Noise is very good as well. Honestly probably quieter than the Goodyears and on par with the stock Pirellis. The tread pattern is deep and aggressive and the details on the tread make them look made for the Cybertruck, especially with the almost digital looking pattern.

There is one thread on Rivian where it says they had issues with hydroplaning, but i've driven a number of times through heavy rain and standing water and never noticed any slipping or sliding.

These are a solid set of tires and am willing to bet they hold up against any other AT tire out there. The bonus is that these are designed from the ground up to be EV tires and so range and noise are non-issues.

1. What color and manufacturer wrap or PPF is that?

2. Where is the sail panel Molle from?

Keep bouncing between getting Pirelli XTM AT or the Nokian Outpost.

I’m reluctant because of the Core Pirelli durability.

Thanks for the reviews fellers

Man, those Cores are in my garage. Once you take them off, it's hard to put them back on. I refuse to put those things back on. Keep them for emergencies. XTMs are ELECT tires, they're better for range than the Nokians, which, from my understanding, have xero EV truck rolling resistance features in mind.

inozetek satin liquid tungsten

Id push Goodyear for replacement
My best luck with tire warranty is direct over the phone with the manuf
They will tell you where for inspection and give you credit toward a new purchase once verified
