Brakes hardly get used because of regenerative braking. I only brake once I'm below maybe 25 mph unless there's an obstacle or I'm in some sort of traffic that demands it. I don't have a tesla, but I've heard if you use the one pedal driving mode with the aggressive regen, the brakes may never need changing.
I imagine tires on a tesla would need to be serviced like any other sports car as they are definitely NOT using the sort of thing you'd find on a volt or leaf. My car came with "special" ev tires that are super hard and are inflated to 36 psi. My understanding is that a lot of the non sporty EVs have similar tires.
