How Do You Like Your Tires So Far?
I only have around 3000 miles on my 580 SUV so it will be a while before I need tires but I have read that the heavier EV’s wear out tires faster than lighter EV vehicle‘s. Mine came with the Goodyear F1 EV tires and so far they are very smooth, quiet and I am happy with them. The only thing I do not like is that they are Summer tires and I would prefer all season tires. I was looking the other day and found these Hankook EV tires which look quite good so they may be an option later on for me. What type of tires came on your EQS SUV, how do you like the ride, and do you think you will buy the same brand as a replacement later on.

mine comes with Pirelli Scorpion Zero All Season. it is quiet but that's all. I still like Mechlin better. I do consider change to 20 when the time is right. 275/50/20 Michelin pilot sport all season 4 or PS4 SUV

The OEM run flat tires on my 580 EQS need replacement at 9000 miles. Are you replacing tires with run-flat or taking the risk of a flat? The wear on run flats is significant after just minimal mileage.

From what I have read it’s all EV tires, not just run flats, that have a low mileage life. In order to make them quiet and a ride that compensates for higher EV weight softer compounds are used that wear quicker. Oddly enough not very environmental.

What was the tire model you had originally? I have the Pirello Zero All Season ones and really not looking forward to replace them that early.
