The Model S has a negative Camber by design. This causes the tires to wear out on the inside. Can you do something about it? Yes. We should how. Please support us by using our referral code ts.la/rolf7721 when buying a new Tesla. For the first 1,000 miles you will get free supercharging.

My modell y p had same tire wear. My camber was in tolerance (-1.3 and -1.6) but my toe was off. If it wears again I will request adjust camber to -.5

Great video describing the Tesla inner tire wear issue. Check out N2itive adjustable camber arms made for exactly this problem. Then you can keep the wheel size you want. No need to drop down to 19".

Doesn't look like camber wear, but more like toe wear to me. I had the exact same issue on my 335d. You can see that the contact patch is much wider that the worn area. Too much toe in/out makes the inside of the tire "drag" instead of roll.

My Plaid with 21's an 8700 miles has this problem. Looks like toe wear. The difference is here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fL1na5uqs7HVomw.html

I have 21's on my 2013 model S P85. Just replaced tires. Front tire wear was bad on the inside; should have got another 10k out of the front set before they started leaking. Any advice on non adjustable suspension? I was looking at a camber kit from n2uitie. 64k miles.

Thanks for subscribing. First check the alignment. Then do something else. Rolf

so does this not happen with 19"?

@TeslaOwnersUS 3 ай бұрын

Does also happen with 19“. Alignments and camber needs to be corrected by Tesla. Rolf

Did Tesla charge you to change the camber alignment? Thanks

@TeslaOwnersUS 8 ай бұрын

Sure. They did charge, but at the end it was worth it. Now I can even claim run off early tires because they are run off evenly. Rolf

@@Kirk510 If you have an early Model S you only get a warning light when something is wrong with a tire or the system. But it does not show which tire it is. Also you can not see the current tire pressure with the old system. At some point in 2014 Tesla started installing a different system that allows you to see the tire pressure of each individual tire on the dash. You can then see which tire is low and caused the warning light to come on. The system can be upgraded. Tesla can do it for you or you can buy the parts from Tesla and DIY. This video shows how to do the upgrade: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h8d9dbyX39_Dd5s.html

@@Kirk510 If you have a top view of the car with a tire pressure showing at each wheel than you have the new (Continental) system already. Most cars have been upgraded a long time ago since there were several issues with the old (Baolong) system. What year is your S? Last 6 of VIN?
