> they wear out tires sooner.

This is dependent on how you drive them. EVs are fun, so you get a disproportionate number of people driving them aggressively. That's hard on tires. If you drive normal, you get normal tire life.

EVs are typically heavier than ICE cars so will cause more tyre wear.

They wear out tires because they weigh a shit ton, not because their drivers like to go below the limit trying to draft off a rig.
