Electric vehicle tyres
Tyres made for electric cars, fitted at your home or your work. Built for the extra weight, the instant torque and the quiet cabin that shows up every bit of road noise.
An EV asks more of a tyre than people realise
An electric car carries a battery pack, so it is usually several hundred kilograms heavier than the petrol equivalent. It also delivers full torque the instant you touch the accelerator. Both of those wear tyres faster, which is why EV owners are often surprised by how quickly the first set goes.
EV specific tyres use low rolling resistance compounds, which directly affects how much range you get out of a charge. Fit a cheap tyre with high rolling resistance and you will feel it in the range figure every single day you own the car.
The other thing is noise. There is no engine to mask it, so tyre roar that you would never notice in a petrol car becomes the loudest thing in the cabin. The tyres we recommend for EVs are chosen with that in mind.

What to look out for
Range
Low rolling resistance compounds mean less energy spent turning the wheel and more range from the same charge.
Extra weight
Battery packs add serious mass. EV rated tyres carry it without wearing out early or going soft under load.
Quiet cabin
With no engine noise, tyre roar is what you hear. The right tyre keeps an EV feeling like an EV.
