Electric Vehicle Tyres

EV Tyres in Pukekohe

Electric vehicles have unique tyre needs — they're heavier (battery weight), deliver instant torque (faster tread wear), and need low rolling resistance for maximum range. The wrong tyres can reduce your range by 10-15% and wear out in half the time.

Why EVs Need Specialist Tyres

• Weight — EV batteries add 300-500kg, requiring higher load-rated tyres
• Torque — Instant electric torque shreds standard tyres faster
• Range — Low rolling resistance tyres add 15-30km per charge
• Noise — No engine noise means tyre noise is amplified. EV tyres have noise-dampening foam

Our Recommendation

We'll match the right EV-optimised tyre to your vehicle. Proper tyre pressure is even more critical for EVs — we set it to manufacturer spec with every fitment. Alignment is also recommended to maximise tyre life on heavy EVs.

FAQ

Can I use regular tyres on my EV?

You can, but they'll wear faster and reduce your range. EV-specific tyres pay for themselves in longer life and better efficiency.
