    The usual cause of tyre wear in EVs is the torque when accelerating from stand still or near standstill if that acceleration is quite rapid.  If it’s normal to pull out of a junction with a plan to be hitting the same speed as the rest of the traffic in a very short distance, then that usually causes wear on the accelerating wheels.  Weight and regen won’t wear down the tyre in themselves.
