With the introduction of affordable mass-market EV models, a variety of specialized tires has emerged, claiming to offer improved range and performance.
 
I think it's not mandatory to use EV tires, but these tires are tailor-made to meet the distinct requirements of electric vehicles. I've also learned that EV tires typically feature lower rolling resistance, contributing to improved efficiency and increased range, and most of them claiming better handling and braking performance.
 
Reading many articles and thoughts from other EV forums the consensus is EV tyres can handle the additional weight better than standard tyres.
Checking the tyre load rating you are considering buying would be my advice.
