The brakes last a lot longer because of regen, everything else applies but is pretty marginal, although I had to pay BMW $500 to replace a tire on my i4 because of a nail. I could have shopped around for that I guess.

If you don't use your brakes and just regen all the time, you run the risk of having your brakes rust.
