Are EV tires actually more expensive? Short answer: not necessarily.
The tech inside EV tires isn't what drives up the price. The real culprit? Size and
performance. Many EVs come standard with larger 19-, 20-, or 21-inch wheels
fitted with high-performance tires. Performance tires of that size naturally cost
more, regardless of whether your vehicle is gas, hybrid, or electric.
