How to rotate Tesla tires

Get EducaTed on how to rotate the tires on your Tesla. I demonstrate on my Model Y, but the procedure is the same for other Tesla vehicles or other vehicles. Here are links to the tools and products I used.

Nicely done! Exactly how I perform tire swaps when rotating or switching between all seasons and winter tires. Living in a snowy climate I've taught myself how to clean and lube the brake hardware. Noticed you use an Icon torque wrench. Recently upgraded to an Icon Split Beam Torque wrench. Those have been hard to find lately!

I purchased a new mounted set of winter tires on turbine wheels for my 2023 model3 performance. Tesla, mobile service brought them to my house and replace my current Summer tires that come with my M3p. He put a floor, jack w/puck in the hole in front of the rear tire and picked up the whole side of the car. Used a battery, powered impact and pulled both tires off. Then he popped on the new snow tires set, touch the car down and proceeded with his torque wrench. No need for two jacks since the car is rigid

Wheels should really be diagonally rotated as roundabouts affect the tyre wear on the OS compared to the NS but it's better to rotate than nothing at all :D

I have the performance model and it has different size tires and wheels front to back, so your method is only for standard models.

What rims are on your model y? They look great!

Martian wheels are beautiful. Why did you choose to go with 20's? Did you consider going with 19's?

Are You using the torque wrench to protect the after market lug nuts? Can you tighten without torque wrench?

[N.I.C.K.]

Is your tire directional? I’m probably going to rotate exactly how you did (I have the standard 19in Gemini / Non Directional Tires) but the manual says to do the cross pattern. What are your thoughts?

Do you have to reprogram the TPMS sensor to report the new tire location?

[nabil]

How many kilometres should we rotate the tires?

[commonsenseyou]

Well, how do you do a x-pattern rotation on that car?

[buixote]

I like the cheaper torque wrenches... no twisting or untwisting...

[joblow]

Don’t even bother cause you finna wipe those tires in 20, 000 miles regardless

No need to rotate tires on a Tesla. Especially a duel motor Tesla. The weight is distributed evenly front to rear. I had a Model 3 rear motor vehicle. After 5-1/2 years of ownership and two sets of tires. I never rotated them. They wore to the wear bars evenly. I asked a Tesla mechanic and he also said, tire rotation is not necessary. ICE vehicles need tire rotation because of the weight of the engine.

Good video, but just let tesla do the tire rotation at home for $35.😊

Yeah i just take it to tesla cost 80 Australian dollars cheap as not worth doing it yourself.
