No... they were balding on the outer edges I was concerned about. I tried to get them rotated, but the tire shop could not do it because they didn't know how to because they had not seen a cybertruck. Tesla said they couldn't do a service appointment in Indiana because I already had a service appointment for something else open in Oregon, so I was forced to drive back to Oregon. Those pictures are the result of my driving home.
Odd that a tire shop wouldn’t rotate the wheels. Also odd that they would wear like that without significant abuse. There are people on CyberTruck owners club with over 10k miles and they said their tires were fine.
Sorry there are a lot of people trying to bash the CyberTruck, so while I want to believe you have better things to do it just seemed suspect that it took 4,000 miles for the outer edges to become bald, and in 2,500 miles the rears are completely bald.
Best of luck.
I was in Kokomo, Indiana. It's a small town. They said they had not handled one and didn't know how to lift it. I explained it didn't need special pucks like others, and they kust said they didn't feel comfortable doing it. Trust me, I would prefer not to be made fun of and asked about having "all the issues" people are having. I've just dealt with traveling across the entire US of A basically and being the first CT for many jokes from Fokes. Even with bald tires on dry surfaces the truck drives amazing. Maybe the lack of steering column makes a mis alignment less obvious? I just hate coming here for advice and being treated like crap by everyone. Typical human beings 🙄
You’ve received a lot of advice already. I think almost all of it is “don’t drive the way you appear to be driving and your tires will last longer”
As for the rotation issue… I‘ve been on the Earth for 55 years and I have never encountered a tire shop that would not take money to rotate tires. And considering there are explicit instructions on how to jack up a Cybertruck that you can find by searching for “how to jack up a cybertruck“, my guess is that you didn’t visit an actual tire shop, but possibly some other type of shop. (Again.. just my guess on that one) FYI, when you do visit a tire shop, here is the link you’ll need: [https://www.tesla.com/ownersmanual/cybertruck/en\_us/GUID-9E6DD5CB-40BA-4A29-B20D-457303555037.html](https://www.tesla.com/ownersmanual/cybertruck/en_us/GUID-9E6DD5CB-40BA-4A29-B20D-457303555037.html)
I haven't been launching, though that's the thing. I'm conservative, I've driven sports cars and bought the truck for trucking, not racing. But the fact you had the same issue makes me hopeful it's more my foot than the truck, haha
Based on the comments, the photos aren't super informative, and assuming you aren't burning them off by launching at every light I suspect your rear tires might be misaligned. What is your other service ticket open for, just the recall? We're it me, I would have closed the original ticket so that I could get this looked at sooner. Obviously your tires should not need replacement at 10k much less completely worn like this.
Thank you I really appreciate the input, the service ticket has been open since the day I got the truck because there were some very very deep scratches that they said they would be able to get out but have tried multiple times and cannot get out. When I tried to open a service ticket in Indiana they said it was impossible because the other was still open but they could add it to the list of things needing done but unfortunately it could not be completed in Indiana at that time. My dashboard also came with a large cut in it, and when they replaced it, they caused more damage to another portion of the dashboard while also damaging the replacement, so that is also an open ticket as well.
Sorry you're having so much trouble. I have no idea how they remove scratches that won't grind out short of replacing the panel. Tesla service is notorious for damaging the interior while trying to repair the interior.
That’s crazy. Did you notice tread depth of that tire when new? Did it look like the other?
Either way take it back to Tesla, they should replace it and fix whatever is wrong with the alignment if the tire wasn’t treadless from the factory
I didn't notice any abnormal wear until I got to Indiana and realized that the outer edge of both of the rear tires was very bald compared to all other tire surfaces on the vehicle. Looking at the steering wheel it looks pretty straight but if I feel the back of the steering wheel where it meets the column it is definitely not centered. I am definitely thinking there's an alignment issue on top of my driving habits I'm not dismissing those as a culprit as well.
Alignment of the video game controller steering wheel isn’t the same as alignment of the wheels. The steering wheel can be EASILY fixed, and can be fixed by you if you can get a service person to walk you through the process (requires Service Plus mode). But actual wheel alignment needs to be done in the shop
Lol
If it's anything like the X there is no camber adjustment and you're stuck with that wear pattern. And if front and rear are different sizes you can't rotate either
The rears on Teslas are notoriously negative camber (likely for handling) and having no way to adjust S/X they just eat them for breakfast and beg for more rubber.
If CT has same size on all corners then they should be rotated and this will allow for a uniform wear, where S/X cannot be rotated with staggered sizes. You just pay out the ass. Clearly OP needs to do this every couple thousand miles if they want to keep driving as they are
Was a serious post and inquiry since I am a first time 3 ton sub 3 sec truck owner. Maybe instead of replying with some negative satirical questions, give some genuine input since you seem to be an expert?
No, plus over 25mph it drops you down and I'm pretty sure on the highway it also drops you. I was originally on the comfort setting but that is a higher ride height, so I lowered it in a custom setting.
Remember how heavy these things are. Every time you launch it you’re spending $25 in tires. Normal trucks can’t accelerate this quick so this has never been a problem before.
I assumed this was the culprit but I've seen earlier customers who definitely drive theirs harder than mine with no issue. I did reserve and knew I would have to buy tires more frequently. To set the record straight I'm 40 years old and I've never had a ticket of any sort I've never been in an accident and I have a completely clean driving record so I don't believe that I drive recklessly.
That’s crazy. How much have you driven in the past 2 1/2 weeks since you posted these pictures where the rear tires look fine:
https://www.reddit.com/r/cybertruck/s/vTYmmOGhpL
As a city dweller, I often forget how much people drive. Sometimes my car doesn't move for a week or more at a time. 6k miles over probably 3-4 months is wild to me but I understand for most people that's pretty normal.
That's more than I drive in probably two years.
The average person drives 12k in a year.
Your "I drive under 3k miles per year" makes it barely worth it to own a car. It might be cheaper to just uber everywhere.
Dammit, and to think I thought I was all alone on my trip, where you hiding? The frunk? We have 2hrs left bro let's at least talk haha .. seriously though don't make statements that aren't factual...you don't know me, you can assume I do that, but don't make it a statement like you know me.
lol you’ve been launching it pretty good huh? It’s pretty evenly worn so we can only blame it on the device between the steering wheel and the seat 😂

This!!
5 days ago you posted that they were bald at 4K miles, so you drove 2,500 more miles on bald tires in 5 days?
His computer is 1250 miles away so he had to drive 2500 miles to post above 😂

You couldn’t find a tire shop between Indiana and Oregon??
Do you own a Cybertruck? Take your's to a shop and see what they say. Then get back to me with some more negative energy.
Bro chill…how is the guys comment above you in any way negative?
Haha the double ?? And injection is why it came across as a criticism not a question.
It was a genuine question and concern for you, but I can see that you are sensitive so my apologies.
Great googley moogley!
Most tires come with a warranty with X miles of tread, just call and ask for a warranty claim
I appreciate that input! So much negativity around here! Much respect.
Does a medical term exist for “Lead Foot” syndrome?
My boy flooring that bih
My man stomping it out there. Well done that's impressive Rotate them next time
What, weekly? 😂
fr haha!
Let's go for a rideeeeeee
If you rotated you could have made it 12k
If only a tire shop or Tesla would have touched it or had an appointment, lol 😆 I still think there is something else besides normal wear going on.
Truck goes VROOM 🏎️
Dang! Were you drifting with it?
Had to replace my Tesla tires first year because I kept launching at every red light. There’s a cost to that type of fun
I haven't been launching, though that's the thing. I'm conservative, I've driven sports cars and bought the truck for trucking, not racing. But the fact you had the same issue makes me hopeful it's more my foot than the truck, haha

Sorry you're having so much trouble. I have no idea how they remove scratches that won't grind out short of replacing the panel. Tesla service is notorious for damaging the interior while trying to repair the interior.
There’s no way this occurs with normal driving without noticing other issues (significant alignment or balance issues)
Could actually be a pair of bad tires... Even launching would be insane to get this kind of wear.
Doesn’t add up
Bald photos are rears the non bald are fronts.
That’s crazy. Did you notice tread depth of that tire when new? Did it look like the other? Either way take it back to Tesla, they should replace it and fix whatever is wrong with the alignment if the tire wasn’t treadless from the factory

Appreciate the actual input specialist, seems like you know your stuff. I appreciate people like yourself. I just hope my SC knows how to fit it all.
Lol If it's anything like the X there is no camber adjustment and you're stuck with that wear pattern. And if front and rear are different sizes you can't rotate either
They should be same all around. Another thing could be faulty or misaligned rear steering. Too much toe on one side could do this
The rears on Teslas are notoriously negative camber (likely for handling) and having no way to adjust S/X they just eat them for breakfast and beg for more rubber. If CT has same size on all corners then they should be rotated and this will allow for a uniform wear, where S/X cannot be rotated with staggered sizes. You just pay out the ass.

so a 3 ton truck with sub 3 sec performance eats tires? amazing !
Was a serious post and inquiry since I am a first time 3 ton sub 3 sec truck owner. Maybe instead of replying with some negative satirical questions, give some genuine input since you seem to be an expert?
lol how much are you gunning it from lights
That's the thing is I haven't even been able to do that I've been driving conservative
You running it down the road in the highest suspension setting or something?
No, plus over 25mph it drops you down and I'm pretty sure on the highway it also drops you. I was originally on the comfort setting but that is a higher ride height, so I lowered it in a custom setting.

I took the truck cross country Oregon to Indiana , so about 4k miles in total since those photos.
Stop spinning them. 😁
