Electric Vehicle Tyre Suitability
+
Electric vehicles (EVs) often require tyres that can handle greater weight due to their heavy battery packs. They also benefit from tyres designed to withstand the increased torque and unique performance demands of EVs.
Important Note: While these tyres are not specifically designed for EVs, their higher load ratings and enhanced durability make them suitable for many electric vehicles.
Return Process: If you need to return your tyres, please contact us first. Once returned and inspected, we’ll issue a refund (less any applicable freight costs).
Damaged Tyres: Although all our tyres are brand new, if any arrive damaged, contact us immediately for a full refund.

For a cheaper tyre these are actually really good tyres. The EU rating rates higher than some lot more expensive bigger brand tyres - these are my second set I've brought off them. Wear well and handle nicely. Also Tyre Dispatch are fantastic to deal with. Place order and basically received them the next day (Te Puke to Auckland). Highly recommend.
