When it comes to Tesla maintenance, most owners focus on the battery and software updates. But one often-overlooked factor that dramatically impacts both your driving experience and long-term costs is tire wear β and how itβs directly connected to your suspension system.
Tesla vehicles are known for instant torque and impressive performance. That performance, however, puts extra stress on your tires. Add in the weight of the battery pack, and even a minor suspension misalignment can lead to uneven tire wear, reduced traction, and more frequent tire replacements.
Your suspension system β including control arms, bushings, toe links, and air or coil springs β ensures the tires maintain proper contact with the road. If components become worn or misaligned, the result is:
Uneven tread wear
Premature sidewall damage
Increased rolling resistance
Reduced driving range and handling
At Dynamis Auto, we specialize in Tesla suspension diagnostics and repairs, using OEM-grade tools and deep EV expertise. Whether itβs a worn bushing or a misaligned camber bolt, our team will restore your ride and help maximize tire life.
To get the most out of your tires:
Rotate every 6,000β8,000 miles
Align the suspension at least once a year or after any major road impact
Monitor tire pressure with your Tesla app and adjust seasonally
Proper tire wear starts with a healthy suspension system. Book your Tesla for a full inspection today at Dynamis Auto in San Jose β and drive farther, safer, and smoother.
