You put all 4 new tires on at once your mileage goes down to around 3 miles per kwh. If you depend on your range to be at least 4 miles per kwh that would be bad to suddenly get 3.
Maybe for some people it's not a problem at all, because they have chargers everywhere.
That leaf rolls better than just about anything I have had so far. I usually let the car roll from 45 to 60 mph to 10 to 20 mph in eco then use the hydraulic brakes to stop. They like 4 way stops signs here.
