Hi all,
Just being curious about wear on the Ioniq 6's Pirelli PZero 20 inch Tires and how they have held up for you.

I have read in a few posts that at least two drivers have had to replace their sets at around 25,000 - 30,000 miles. If I look at Pirelli's information I see the following - P Zero All Season ELECT™ 50,000 Mileage Coverage . Now, I know all driving conditions are different, but if the thought of getting down to 2/32s should be somewhere in the 50,000 mile range. It looks like at least on the Ioniq 6 is roughly 40% to 50% less mileage coverage before the need to change out the tires.

I am just wondering what you are all seeing and has anyone had a better result. In my Hyundai Sonata Plug-in - I got exactly 50,000 miles before completely changing out the set.

Thanks for any input you can give me.

Approaching 30K on mine. Still some tread left, I expect I should hit 40K or better. Don't want to replace too soon, lease is 45K miles (3 yr@15K), and runs out in Jan. 2027. Don't think I will reach that with original tires, and I assume lease return requires certain amount of tread to avoid paying for another set of tires at marked up prices.

I did get a bubble in one tire (pothole) and had to replace it. But that was pretty early on.

I only got 30,500 km on mine, but I like not slowing for corners, and in the first year I found the acceleration to be thrilling.
I replaced them with Micheline CrossClimate2, they have 11/32” of tread, and I’m trying to be stingy with it.

I was at 7/32 at 15000 miles, so honestly if they make it to 30k would be nice. When I started looking at replacement costs Discount Tire did not list a milage warranty on the Pirelli. They did have a Michelin listed at 50K and I think it was a Yoko at 60K. Longer life = heavier tire = less range. Manufactures what to advertise the longest range possible so they go with the lightest tire they can get by with.

I got down to 5/32 at about 21k miles. I chose to swap out the 20" wheels and tires for 18" and went with Michelins with 70k mile warranty. Cost for the new sets was about the same as just replacing with the same Pirelli's. After about 9k miles there are wearing much slower than the stock tires.

I'm at 38,000 kms on my 20" OEMs. Not much tread left, down below 3/32 now. Will have to start looking for replacements.

I was happy with the OEMs in winter snow. Snow mode makes all the difference on icy snow packed highways. Did well going up to the ski hills. A couple times had to push through 8" of fresh snow, dragging the bottom. But never close to getting stuck or losing traction up a hill.

My son has a RWD Tesla, and even with new snow tires, could not do what my I6 AWD did in the snow on OEMs. It was esp dangerous on icy highways wanting to fish tail, where mine stayed straight and true while in Snow mode.

15k miles (UK AWD) below 5mm now.

What I wanted to mention is that there is tyre "rotation" schedule in the car's manual. At every 7500 miles the tyres need to be rotated. If I'm not mistaken in some X pattern: rears are moved forward, but the fronts get swapped across. Or something similar.
