EV Channels Review

The TFL team tackles the seasonal tire change on their Tesla Model 3 Performance, opting for Michelin CrossClimate2 all-weather tires. The process, while detailed, highlights the necessity of a proper jack for low-slung EVs and the unique jacking point requirement on Teslas, necessitating a hockey puck or similar cushion. The hosts successfully swap the stock 20-inch wheels for smaller 19-inch wheels, noting potential brake clearance issues which, in this case, were not a problem. The review emphasizes the practicality of all-weather tires for year-round use, balancing snow capability with daily drivability, though acknowledging they are a compromise compared to dedicated snow or summer tires. The total cost, including tires, wheels, TPMS sensors, and a new low-profile jack, is estimated around $2,854. The initial drive suggests the ride quality is maintained, and the tires handle the car's torque effectively. A future snow test is promised.
