Stop Your Tesla From Eating Tires

Why Teslas Wear Tires So Fast

From the factory, every Tesla runs a good amount of negative camber in the rear — the tops of the rear tires tilt inward. It helps the car corner flat, but it also concentrates the car's weight onto the inner edge of each rear tire.

Here's the catch: on a Tesla, rear camber isn't adjustable from the factory. There's no bolt to turn, so even a perfect alignment can't pull the rear angles back into a tire-friendly range. The inner edges just keep wearing — often cording through in as little as 15,000–20,000 miles while the rest of the tread still looks brand new.

On a heavy, instant-torque EV that already goes through tires quickly, that adds up fast — easily $1,000–$1,500 a year for owners who never address it.

Adjustable Camber & Alignment Arms

TruHart builds a full line of adjustable rear camber, toe, and control arms for every Tesla — the same type of correction hardware as premium brands like N2itive, at a more affordable price.

Installing adjustable arms gives your alignment shop something the factory never did: the ability to actually set rear camber (and toe) to a proper specification. Once the angles are corrected, the tire sits flat on the road and wears evenly across the whole tread — not just the inner edge.

Pair the arms with our recommended alignment settings (listed at the bottom of this page) and you'll get the most life out of every set of tires.

These are the alignment settings we recommend to maximize tire life once your adjustable arms are installed. Find your model below, then screenshot or save the table and hand it to your alignment shop so they can dial your Tesla in correctly.
