Hi Folks, I have about another 50K miles (currently 160K total) on a set of 255/45r19 tires and taking Phil's suggestion for narrower 235/50r19 (just ordered Kumho $100 ea Walmart) since mine once again have worn out on the *inner* side of all 4 tires. For a pricy car, it's amazing there's *no* camber adjustment. A few years ago when the right front was really bad (more negative camber than the rest), I loosened the top shock tower bolts and pushed over with a crowbar the top shock tower to the outside - reducing somewhat the negative camber on the right front (which was excessively chewing up tires), checking with a level on outside rim. I might do this on the other shock towers. Next time you follow a Tesla, look and see the wheels from behind: camber looks like / \
Typical response/solution I found on Reddit: "I finally broke down and bought adjustable camber arms, and had an alignment done. Problem solved. Spending $400 now on arms, will save you many sets of tires. You're heard of Tesla's build quality right? Well, don't expect your tires to be square to the ground, cause they ain't. / \ vs | | Weight of the car has nothing to do with it. Camber does". Have a renewable energy day, Mark Mark E.
