Hopefully this comes to Ireland. What a great looking car. Priced from €35,000 to €45,000 with at least 3 different spec levels and it could do well.
Yeah I'd imagine if the service plan was optional they'd sell a good few more cars?
This newer/facelift model has less range than the outgoing version?
If you trust Gemini's response…
Janey,not great figures for the current LR there?
Ah, could be worse I guess! Range is less, but battery tech and charging times are better. Seems Tesla did something similar with reducing range.
Id say more like 800 most of these cars are on 19 inch wheels minimum
Yeah, keep going…
You'd be lucky to get a set of decent 19" tyres in 2026 for under a grand.
Yeah I was thinking a grand myself, wouldn't like to be paying for them if I'm not getting them though?😳
It is a bit of a gentle scam that usually ends in "oh well" 🤷♂️
When did Tesla make this change on cars sold here ?
On Tyreleader prices for 19 inch start at €60. Mid range starts at €93. Prices are plus fitting.
Decent tyres, including fitting - 920 for me last year for a medium range Hankook, expect that to be around a grand when I need them next.
The 'Google' people eh?😁
This year I think.
19 inch Hankooks start at €125 each on Tyreleader.
Not that same ones as OEM fitted on Tesla's I don't think. S1 evos in the right size are 180
There's Michelin 20s on the G6 - wouldn't be cheap either.
Hankook Ions are 205/210 per 19" tyre, plus 35 per tyre fitting at one of the most recommended places in north Dublin. That would be 970 in today's money when I need the next set - hopefully a year away yet, so likely over a grand then.
The EV version of the higher end Ventus tyres were being listed at over 300 a tyre in 19". Wouldn't bother with them.
Hankook is only a middle-order brand as well, not even a premium provider.
Who’s going to pay €35 per tyre for fitting ?
Have you checked lately? 35 per tyre was the 2024 fitting price offered by Discount Tyres in Blanchardstown - the default recommendation for tyres in north Dublin. Think they may be the same this year, but if it was higher it wouldn't be a massive surpise.
I certainly don't want tyres arriving at my house and my car certainly couldn't bring 4 full-sized tyres to a fitter, so if you use the service offered by Oponeo or Tyreleader where the tyres are delivered directly to the partners who support the program, then those are the prices you're working with in the main.
€15 in North Dublin
Has anyone used this fitter and got them fitted for €15? I find that the price advertised on the website is not the price you pay when you go to have them fitted. I have used several different fitters from tyreleader and eiretyres and none of them charged the prices from the website.
Anyone that thinks that they'll get a tyre fitted for €15 isn't living in the real world,these guys have overheads you know- maybe 20 years ago?
I get mine fitted for €15
DC Tyres fit all my Tyreleader orders. They are on the list so the Tyres get delivered straight to them.
€20 a corner for removal and disposal of the old tyres, fitting and balancing of the new tyres.
But I haven’t had a tyre smaller than 19” in years. Generally 20” and 21”.
Yes, last set of 4 20” tyres I got fitted was 4 months ago. €20 each including disposal and balancing. Over the years I’ve often paid €50 for 4 but more recently €15 or €20 per tyre. I’m not in Dublin but that shouldn’t make any difference.
Last time I checked, I was in the real world. Anyone paying €35 a corner is getting scammed.
Disposal fee as well, around €2.50 I think?
Normal €2.80 + vat per tyre but included in the €15-€20 per tyre I usually pay.
Well I'd say a lot depends on what part of the country you're in,as an ex motor trade person myself I have mates in Dublin charging over €100 an hour labour and people down the Wexford area charging around €75 an hour among fierce enough competition too.Rents are crazy and Mechanics are on big wages these days and nearly impossible to get.Prices will always vary but only going one way- and don't forget to watch out for the inevitable cowboys out there.(Everything plus vat don't forget)
