With tyres, for what it’s worth, difference between regular PS4 and PS4 T0 or T1 seems to be marginal.

Good character, cash, condo, credit card and ability to live without car will supercede those that rely on car.

My EV tyres cost RM2200 per donut. Sigh.

That amount can get me around 13 tires, and my total tire changes for these 8 years haven't even reached half of that. πŸ˜„

you just removed engin out from the equation
but then you add one other things that's more expensive
like battery, inverter, motor with regenerative braking

so you will still need to do transmission fluid, brake fluid, coolant changes and brake pads even when brake is not frequently used due to age

You all dont know real EV tires are really expensive, just google about EV tires.
Due to high torque and requirements to meet (long range/better efficient/ silent running) actual EV tires are made with more features to meet = more $$$
If you cheapskate and change normal tires it wont last long (shorter tread life), shorter running range (which most EV owners are scare of), louder road noise.

If your EV is the super fancy type with 19inch 20 inch low profile racer tyre, confirm expensive.

If your EV is normal type with 16, 17inch tyre, should be cheap.

The main reason for fast tire wear in EV is the EV car is probably about 300~400 kg heavier than your regular petrol car. So, rubber has to be sturdier. If use normal tire probably wear out in 1 year+. Since EV car is still new, the tire is expensive + the process/material I believe is expensive too sad.gif
