I have never rotated tires on my Teslas. Measurements and balance are so precise these days. i do check for differences in wear but so far have found none. i have no data to prove it not necessary but I'd like to see some proof that it is.

I saw Tesla Mobile will rotate your tires at home for $65. I said I want to swap out my winter wheel set with my AT wheel set. Now they want $115.

My views are 1. Swapping one wheel with another is a rotation. 2. When a winter wheel is removed, it’s very simple to put on the AT wheel. 3. Swapping wheels is faster than a rotation, imo…

Be careful Discount Tire accidentally broke my mirror the first time . The second time was perfect.

Make sure they put the truck in Jack mode and when they lower the truck make sure the Jack handles are clear of the mirrors.

I asked for a tire rotation and it was not done because the Tesla tech specified the tires were wearing evenly.

I thought it was just good practice to rotate every 5k miles...but I could be wrong...maybe that's just old school thinking (like changing oil every 3k miles).

I am heading north to our cottage in Ontario on the 15th. I went on the app and scheduled my tires to be rotated on the 13th. Tesla will come out to my house and rotate them for $70. Who would choose to do it any other way When Tesla will do it in your driveway for $70. To me its a no brainer. Save me travel time, wear on tires and electric...but it is time that I find is most important. You don' t have to wait anywhere for your vehicle to get in and wait to get done. Most likely my wife and I won't even be home. We will be out getting things for our trip...a things that won't be Taxed by Tariffs. Thanks Tesla for your on site service.

Tesla doesn't have mobile service in many markets, mine included. This sounds like an amazing deal, I wish Tesla would up their service capabilities to make things seamless across regions.

I say it all the time, how good it is to be a Tesla owner is largely dependent on where you live. One person can say owning a Tesla is a dream come true and another say it is a nightmare, and both can be right.

How do my Cybertruck friends do tire rotation? My local Mavis Tires & Brakes said my 8,300 pound Cybertruck was too close to the limit of their 10,000 pound lift.
2 jacks, socket, torque wrench, and a breaker bar with an extension. BTW, the cybertruck is less than 7000 lbs.

I wish jack mode would limit the droop of the tire. I'm glad I bought the taller 6 ton jack stands to be able to get it high enough.
