[Tell It Right]

My EV car (crossover) needed tires replaced at 24K miles. In my ICE cars it was every 27K miles. I don't know how much of that 3K miles difference is from weight or the zippy driving with the acceleration the EV has or maybe cheaper factory tires or all of the above.

Nor do I even know if 27K miles between tire changes in an ICE is normal for Alabama roads. (I'd read years ago that our pavement in the south is more course to allow it to bend with less cracking in the summer sun, compared to northern pavement. But that was years ago and maybe not correct anyway.)

“Nor do I even know if 27K miles between tire changes in an ICE is normal for Alabama roads.”

I drive Alabama roads. I always get around 50-60 thousand miles on tires. Just replaced mine at 48000 and they weren’t totally bad yet. Something’s not right if you’re only getting 27.
