Depends on the compound, touring compounds can be had with hard material to limit wear. Motorcycles tyres have a round tread pattern so the ebike can maintain a contact point on the tread when it leans over. this would mean less drag, although it also means they wouls wera more in the centre on a non-leaning vehicle. There also are sidecar tyres that have a flat tread pattern.
