Tesla Cybertruck owners, who have been eagerly waiting for the vehicle’s release and have recently started receiving their deliveries, are now facing an unexpected issue. Many Cybertruck owners are complaining about premature tire wear despite having driven less than 10,000 km. Users report that their tires have worn out to the point of being unusable in a relatively short distance.
Cybertruck Drains Tires Quickly
A member of the Cybertruck Owners Club mentioned that their three-month-old Cybertruck, with only 10,061 kilometers on the odometer, already requires a tire change. The user suspects that the tire wear may be due to a manufacturing defect.
The user shared their complaints on a community page, stating, “These tires were specially made for the Cybertruck. Such wear in such a short time is unacceptable. I have scheduled an appointment with Tesla on October 1 to discuss this issue.”

Another user from Colorado reported that despite driving 10,000 kilometers during the summer, nearly half of their tires had worn out. Tire wear is a known issue with heavy electric vehicles like the Tesla Cybertruck.
The weight and powerful motor of the Cybertruck put extra pressure on the tires. With a weight of nearly 3.2 tons, this is one of the primary factors negatively affecting tire lifespan.
Similar issues are reported by owners of other electric vehicles, such as Rivian. In addition to vehicle weight, driving modes also affect tire wear. Tesla’s ‘Chill Mode’ limits acceleration and softens engine response, thereby minimizing tire wear. Conversely, high-performance modes like ‘Beast Mode’ result in more rapid tire degradation.
As a result, Cybertruck owners are awaiting a solution from Tesla, citing factors like vehicle weight and performance as reasons for the reduced tire lifespan. An official statement from Tesla is anticipated following the meeting scheduled for October 1.
