EV Tyres – East Sussex

While you can fit ordinary car tyres on an electric vehicle, the majority of EV manufacturers claim that doing so will reduce the vehicle’s range by a massive 20%.

Mobile Tyre Specialists provide a mobile tyre fitting service across East Sussex for electric vehicles.

Why do electric vehicles use different tyres?

Although they might look the same from the outside, electric vehicles carry a lot more weight due to the heavy battery packs, up to 20, sometimes 30% more than standard fuel vehicles, and this weight is carried by the tyres. So, it’ll come as no surprise that the tyres you need for an EV have to be specially designed with greater weight-bearing properties.

The other main difference between standard and EV tyres is that EV tyres have noise-reduction qualities. With standard combustion engine vehicles, the noise of the engine cancels out any sound from the tyres but obviously with no noisy engine, the tyres on an electric vehicle would be significantly louder without the use of sound-reducing technology.

We stock a wide range of EV tyres, and our expert team will be happy to answer any questions you may have and advise on the best tyres for your vehicle.
