Sadly, that’s not true. The large amount of low end torque leads to different rubber, etc.

Also, due to range anxiety, they tend to use low rolling resistance tires that wear more.

I spend more on tires than electricity for my EV, so I can imagine someone offering low efficiency / low wear tires as an option.

The above leads to about 20% more tire dust on average.

Sadly HN downvote me anyway lol
Yours wasn't a really substantive answer. The next person provided more details and didn't add 'lol' at the end of his short statement. Just some feedback if you want people to accept your points more often!
