The Tesla Cybertruck is unlike anything else in the truck segment — a stainless-steel body, air suspension, up to 11,000 pounds of towing capacity, and a unique 285/65R20 tire size designed specifically for the platform. The Cybertruck shipped exclusively with Goodyear Wrangler tires at launch. Replacement options were initially limited to this proprietary size but have expanded as the vehicle has been in production. This guide covers what the Cybertruck needs and what is currently available.
Cybertruck OEM Tire Specifications
All Cybertruck variants (Rear-Wheel Drive, All-Wheel Drive, and Cyberbeast tri-motor) ship with Goodyear Wrangler on-road tires in size 285/65R20, the same size across every trim. It's a Light Truck size with a high 65-series aspect ratio, giving the Cybertruck a taller, more truck-like profile than typical electric vehicles.
The Cybertruck rides on 20-inch wheels — unusual for the segment because most performance trucks use 20-inch wheels with lower profile tires. The 65-series sidewall gives the Cybertruck meaningful sidewall height, which provides better off-road resilience than the low-profile performance fitments common on other EVs.
Load rating is critical: the Cybertruck Cyberbeast weighs approximately 7,100 pounds and can tow up to 11,000 pounds. The 285/65R20 tires must maintain appropriate load indexes for this weight. The OEM Goodyear Wrangler on the Cybertruck is load-rated appropriately — any replacement must match or exceed the original load index.
Aftermarket Tire Options for the Cybertruck
At launch (late 2023 through early 2024), Goodyear Wrangler was essentially the only production tire available in 285/65R20 for highway use. The market has expanded — as of 2024-2025, other manufacturers have started producing tires in this size.
All-terrain options in 285/65R20 are now available from BF Goodrich, Cooper, and Falken as the Cybertruck aftermarket has developed. The BF Goodrich KO2 in 285/65R20, if available, is a natural fit for Cybertruck owners who want enhanced off-road capability.
For owners who want to stay with the OEM Goodyear: the Goodyear Wrangler TrailRunner AT and the updated Wrangler Workhorse AT are highway-capable all-terrain options that maintain the Goodyear relationship. Verify the specific model is available in 285/65R20 before purchasing.
Key consideration: the Cybertruck uses over-the-air updates that can affect suspension parameters and traction control calibration. Tesla does not currently void warranty for third-party tires in the correct size and load rating, but verify this with your local Tesla service center if warranty coverage is a concern.

Range Impact on the Cybertruck
The Cybertruck's EPA range (approximately 320-340 miles for Cyberbeast AWD, 340-470 miles for AWD standard) is measured with the OEM Goodyear tires. Switching to all-terrain tires with higher rolling resistance will reduce range. Tesla does not publish rolling resistance data for approved replacement tires — real-world testing from Cybertruck owner communities suggests a 20-40 mile range reduction from switching to aggressive A/T tires.
The Cybertruck's air suspension can lower the vehicle for highway driving to reduce aerodynamic drag — this partially mitigates rolling resistance impact from tires at highway speeds. For around-town driving, the tire rolling resistance impact is more direct.
Frequently asked
What size tires does the Tesla Cybertruck use?
All Cybertruck variants (RWD, AWD, Cyberbeast) use 285/65R20 on all four corners. This is the same size across all trims — a square setup that enables full tire rotation.
Can you put different tires on a Tesla Cybertruck?
Yes — any tire in 285/65R20 with the appropriate load rating can be installed. Third-party tires in the correct size are not known to affect Tesla warranty at this time, but verify with a Tesla service center if warranty coverage is important to you. Significant size deviations can affect the Cybertruck's traction control and air suspension calibration.
What are the best all-terrain tires for the Cybertruck?
The market for 285/65R20 all-terrain tires has expanded since the Cybertruck launched. BF Goodrich KO2 in 285/65R20 (verify availability), Goodyear Wrangler TrailRunner AT, and Cooper Discoverer AT3 in this size are worth checking. Confirm availability before purchasing as not all brands have produced this size.
How often should Cybertruck tires be rotated?
Tesla recommends rotating Cybertruck tires every 6,250 miles. The Cyberbeast tri-motor's instant torque delivery stresses rear tires particularly under hard acceleration. Regular rotation is important — unrotated Cybertruck tires have shown accelerated rear wear similar to other high-torque EVs.
