It really isn't that big of a deal to use more traditional tires either. The reduction in range only matters for edge case folks that really need the last 10%. It has also been harder during the supply chain crunch to get specific tires. We went to a more traditional winter tire on my wife's Tesla and it lost like 0.1 mi/kWh (it was averaging like 2.9-3.3 mi/kWh).
