Electric vehicles also use braking reclamation. This means you almost never just coast the tires are always under accel or decel.

Good point. Maybe that explains a lot of the excess wear. I always thought regen braking was a major selling point for EVs since traditional braking is a complete waste of kinetic energy/fuel. From a financial standpoint, it doesn't seem so great if the benefits of saving that energy is negated by the need to buy tires so frequently.
