Q: wouldn’t you want low rolling resistance for regular cars too? A: yes, they've existed for years as part of helping OEM's meet fuel economy and meeting ever stricter emissions standards. understandably if you have little or no association with the Automotive Sector...? you will likely have little to no knowledge of this and might misinterpret this as happening for the FIRST TIME (which it isn't). naturally in terms of the newness of EV's, there's a lot more FOCUS and HYPE surrounding efficiency, with the "larger endgame" being to sell you something and thus SEPARATE you from your money (which it does).

One of the great luxuries I could wish for is the room to store and rotate a set of summer/winter tires and wheels. Until then as nice as these tires are the best single tire is a good quality all terrain.

Great upload....there is so much tech that goes into a good tire these days it's amazing. Wondering if you could do a similar review of the Toyo Celsius All Weather tire - which claims year-round usability but better winter performance than All Season tires, plus a 60,000 mile wear rating. How would they achieve this on a mountain snowflake rated tire, especially in light of your comments on compound softness here?

EVs are heavier because of the batteries. You want a tire that's designed for the weight of your car.

Have you ever done a video on how GM does the cylinder shutdown? My last two Corvettes could run on 4 cylinders when just cruising, to greatly increase fuel milage. I always wondered if they somehow were able to keep the exhaust valves open in the deactivated cylinder to avoid unwanted compression. Also wondered if they shift which 4 cylinders they chose to avoid uneven wear. What ever they do,it works flawlessly and increases mpg to 34-35 on long trips. Pretty good for 495hp high performance car.

Southern Ohio. I run summer tires in the summer. I’m originally from Canada and used to winter tires. I replaced my winters with Cross Climate 2 all weather which I believe is way better for the sometime rain, sometimes snow here in the winter.

I will say that if I had the money would love to be able to run summer tires and winter tires but since tires are so expensive I cannot. With that being said I have the All-season Hankook Ion Evo tires on my EV and so far they are amazing. Couldn’t ask for a more comfortable and quiet ride.

For the sake of clarity: Passenger tires -> Summer tires -> Extreme Performance tires -> DOT Competition tires -> Race tires.

Hi, for this tire, do you know what is the lowest working temperature? For the Michelin 4s is like in the 40's. Thanks for the info.

When I bought new summer tires, I made sure that the wet grip has an A rating. I only experienced a loss of grip once (while overtaking on the highway during rain), but having my car turn sideways (like, 90° sideways) to the road while traveling at 130 km/h was more than enough for a lifetime.

I absolutely love summer tyres. For the lower noise and increased braking performance.

I would love for you to do a video on when will we reach the limits of performance of an SUV vs a coupe or sedan. Does ground clearance impose a limit, all things being equal (gas SUV vs gas coupe or EV SUV vs EV coupe). Those larger tires and higher ground clearance must have a performance limitation in acceleration or turning/handling.

I can't really use summers where I live since the nightly lows in my climate never rise above 36°F (~2°C). However, it is nice to have all-seasons in surprise autumn snowstorms, so even if I could, I wouldn't run summers. If I ever move to Florida, California, or Arizona, that will change.

Jason please look into the much coveted Michelin Pilot Sport 4S Tire labeled "Extra Load" and let us know what you find. apparently it's a fitment for the latest generation Model S Plaid with the Carbon Brakes and Track Pack. Misha just made reference to it in a recent Nurburgring test video he uploaded a few weeks back. much like previous collabs done with BMW (M3), Porsche (911/Taycan) and other brands, it seems to be an OEM spec designed specifically for the Triple Motor Tesla.

Would you rather get Michelin that came with M3 or this? Thanks!

Bro I came to your channel as soon as I watched the 2300hp gemera reveal. I'm waiting

best of both world would be a tire that becomes more grippy when you load it with cornering, accelerating or braking, but wouldn't deform much and be efficient under light load when crusing at constant speed. maybe a tire with only the center of tire touching the ground and being much harder, efficient and wear resistant but when you accelerate, decelerate, corner, the mass transfer on rear, front or side tires would make the sticky part of the tire touch and provide more grip

Problem is that I want more range in winter when range is depleted by lower temperatures. In summer the 20%-30% more range makes the additional range on a tire is negligible.

Can you do a video explaining/exploring Nano-electro fluid (NEF) "batteries" that Influit Energy is testing?

Hi Jason. I had an interesting discussion with some friends around the question "Why is quick acceleration less energy efficient than slow acceleration?"...on both electric and ICE vehicles. For example, if you are supposed to travel 1 mile, why is it more efficient to accelerate to 60mph in 10 seconds and than cruise for the rest of the mile versus accelerating to 60mph in 5 seconds and than cruise for the rest of the mile? You are basically moving the same mass over the same distance. I had this question in my mind for some time now and I could not find a pleasing answer researching on the Internet. Of course, the simple answer is: "more energy/fuel is transformed into heat, as more pressure is applied to the mechanical parts", but why? and how? and to what point it differs from ICE to electric vehicles? I would love to see a video where you try to explain the principles of physics that could answer this questions. I'm a big fan of this channel BTW. Thank you for the content you are creating here.

Living in MN, I can't use these without changing them out every season, which is kind of a pain. Unless I buy a second set of rims I can swap them myself. I would love to be able to use a high wear rating summer tire for 365 day use. One of several downsides to living in a cold climate. I just changed my worn OEM MXM4's to Pirelli P Zero's. They are a little mushier and have a bit of a more hollow sound, but overall I like them for all seasons. Will have to see how they do in the winter for final judgement. They're also ~$50 cheaper per tire and have a slightly higher wear rating. Efficiency seems about the same as the MXM4's.

Depending on your vehicle, you may be able to find a user's forum where people sell there used rims for cheap, or do a "group buy" on lots of sets which gets you a discount. That's what I did with my WRX - bought a set of spare stock rims for $200 off some dude and put the summer tires on that, and Nokian winter tires on the other set. That car had a viscous center differential making it critical that you rotate the tires, which for my mileage worked out to be about 6 months. I'd just mark the rims with duct tape and sharpie to know where to put them next season. This does require storage for an extra set of wheels and tires, though.

If you are paying a shop to swap tires on your rims, that's 4 tirrs twice per year, or eight swaps. With two sets of tires you'll probably get four or five years, maybe more, so you are looking at 40 tire mounting charges in all. Buying a second of rims is usually cheaper, unless you drive something exotic. And junkyards sell "guaranteed as new" OEM wheels often for $75 each.

My question now is how does it affect ICE vehicles? So something compareable to a model 3 performance is a bmw m3. Would the BMW m3 get better mileage and other benefits?

v^2/r can be used when v is measured relative to the center of the rotation, which moves together with the car's body, and as you alluded to, the outside of the tyre moves relative to the car body (thus also the center of rotation) at the same speed as the car is driving.

Anyone know where I can find the list of tires/tyres that are rated with the European standard (i.e. AAA rated)?

Is it better than Michelin Pilot Sport 4s? I got a M3P might try Hankook next summer.

Is this a good alternative for a heavy non electric vehicle? Like a minivan for example

I just bought Michelin Pilot Sport 5, did I mess up?

On my Model 3 Performance, I’ve been running Michelin PS4S but with the Porsche ‘NO’ spec since Tesla’s ‘TO’ spec has been much harder to find since they went with the worse performing Pirelli’s on newer models. I switch over to Michelin Pilot Alpin PA4 for winters when the temps drop. It’s gonna be hard to convince me to switch from that combo… combined with Unplugged Performance upgraded sways, the M3P handles like nothing else I’ve driven with Michelin tread. There’s a reason why Tesla first put Michelins on our cars early on.

Stiff SIDEWALL compound but the tread area is a soft compound. That's why soft summer tires wear faster than all seasons.

Why dealers only offer all-season tires options for SUVs?

I just looked up this tire (Hankook iON evo) unfortuently it doesn't have triple A rating for 235/45/R18 it has BAA 69 dB grading for my Tesla Model 3, while B is for dry. This is disapointing! Tesla now fits Michelin E-Primacy on new Higland which has grading ABB 70 dB. But that tire is very bad at wet conditions.

I'm already on my 3rd set of 60,000mi original equipment Michelin tires for my BoltEV after 72,000 miles. Grrrr. I guess it is just too fun to drive around corners. Will try these Hankook tires next time?

Cool video. But you had me at Hankooks are a lot cheaper than the Michelin O.E

The foam insert liner in the tire beside you... is that part of the tire or just for shipping protection?
