Tesla Tyre Fitting and Care in Moorabbin
Tyrepower Moorabbin fits, balances and aligns Tesla tyres in a full workshop that has looked after Bayside drivers since 1998. Our team has the right equipment to lift a Tesla safely at its designated lift points, as lifting anywhere else, including under the battery, can cause damage that isn't covered by warranty as per Tesla’s owners manual.
Wheel alignment is also an important part of looking after your Tesla's tyres. Maintenance schedules call for an alignment check when tyres wear unevenly or the car pulls to one side. While the work's being done by our team of experts, relax in our customer lounge with a coffee, or ask about our courtesy car if you need to get on with your day.
How Often Should You Rotate Tesla Tyres?
Rotate your Tesla's tyres every 10,000 km or whenever the tread depth gap between tyres reaches 1.5 mm or whichever comes first (according to Tesla's Australian maintenance schedule). A tyre rotation moves each tyre to a different position so all four wear at the same rate, making the whole set last longer.
Rotation however may not apply if your Tesla runs staggered wheels (different sizes front and rear) or directional tyres. Our team at Tyrepower Moorabbin will check your setup first and tell you what's possible. Book online today.
When Should Tesla Tyres Be Replaced?
A Tesla tyre is due for replacement when its tread reaches 4/32 of an inch, roughly 3 mm, which is the point Tesla's service manual recommends. Don't wait for the tyre to look bald as tyes with less tread have less traction in the wet and can be dangerous when driving.
If only one tyre needs replacing, Tesla suggests doing them in pairs unless the remaining tyres are within 1.5 mm of the new tyre's tread depth. If you’re unsure how much tread you've got left, come in for a free tyre safety check at Tyrepower Moorabbin today. We’ll measure all four tyres and give you an assessment, whether that's new tyres now or plenty of life left.
Do Teslas Need Special Tyres?
Teslas don't need Tesla-branded or Tesla-approved tyres. What matters is fitting the right size with a load and speed rating at least as high as Tesla's specs. Tesla-approved tyres carry a T mark (T0 is the first approved version) and are designed around Tesla's electric drivetrain and range. Tyrepower Moorabbin can talk you through tyres from Continental, Michelin, Hankook and Goodyear that meet your Tesla's ratings, and explain the difference in plain terms.

Tesla Tyre FAQs
Can you rotate the tyres on a Tesla with staggered wheels?
Often not front to back. Tesla notes that rotation may not apply where the front and rear tyres are different sizes, or where the tyres are directional. Tyrepower Moorabbin will check your wheel and tyre setup and let you know what rotation makes sense for your Tesla.
What should I do if my Tesla gets a flat tyre?
There's normally no spare wheel in a Tesla so if a tyre goes flat, the fix is has to be a puncture repair or a new tyre. At Tyrepower Moorabbin, we'll check whether the puncture can be repaired safely. If the sidewall damage is too great and can't be repaired, we'll replace the tyre for you.
How much do Tesla tyres cost?
What you'll pay for Tesla tyres comes down to three things: wheel size, model and brand. Generally speaking, Tesla tyres range from $150 - $800. Choose your Tesla model on this page to see tyres in your size, or use the Request a Quote form and Tyrepower Moorabbin will get back to you. You can also use interest-free payment options such as Afterpay or Zip.
Can I wait while my Tesla tyres are fitted?
Yes! Tyrepower Moorabbin has a customer lounge where you can grab a coffee and relax while we work. If you'd rather not wait or have errands to run, ask about our courtesy car when you book.
