EV Tyres – Romford

Electric vehicles put specific demands on tyres that standard rubber isn’t always designed to meet.

The instant torque delivery, heavier kerb weight, and regenerative braking of EVs can wear conventional tyres faster and compromise both range and handling.

London Road Tyres in Romford stocks tyres suited to electric vehicles and can advise on the right choice for your car.

Why EVs Need Different Tyres

EV-specific tyres typically feature a reinforced construction to handle the additional vehicle weight, a lower rolling resistance compound to support battery range, and reduced road noise levels – particularly relevant because EVs are otherwise very quiet. They’re also designed to cope with the harder acceleration loads that instant torque produces.

Fitting a standard tyre to an EV won’t immediately cause problems, but range can suffer, and wear rates can increase noticeably over time.
