HYBRID & ELECTRIC SERVICE, MAINTENANCE, AND REPAIR

  • Tires: Due to their high torque, electric vehicles are equipped with tires that use low-rolling resistance compounds. This means EV tires tend to wear out faster, so it's especially important to stay on top of tire maintenance and select tires designed for an EV when it's time to replace them. Another factor is tire load index. Electric vehicles tend to weigh more than their gas-powered counterparts. As a result, electric cars and trucks require tires with a heavier load index. In addition, tires for electric vehicles feature tread designs intended to reduce noise, because sound is more noticeable while driving in these makes and models. These factors are key in selecting optimal replacement tires. At OK Tire and Automotive, we understand the unique needs of electric vehicle owners and will assist with everything from electric vehicle tire sales and installations to rotations and wheel alignments.
     
  • Brakes: Regenerative braking is a key feature in electric vehicles, with many manufacturers touting one-pedal driving. With regenerative braking, an electric vehicle's traditional brakes won't require engagement as often. This means EV owners don't need to replace brake parts as frequently. However, minimal brake maintenance is still important. In addition, less frequent traditional braking may lead to the electric vehicle's brakes seizing or the premature corrosion of brake rotors. OK Tire and Automotive is available to assist with your electric vehicle brake repair and maintenance needs.
     
  • Alignments: Wheel alignments can help keep EV tire costs down. When a vehicle is in alignment, it reduces tire wear and ensures it handles as the manufacturer intended. Because wheel alignments play such a prominent role in tire longevity, it's recommended to have the a vehicle's alignment inspected before installing new tires. Routine alignment checks can also help you keep your electric vehicle at its best throughout the year.
