Assuming that trucks are weighing the same due to cargo weight (and, usually, you're either space or weight limited... usually both if possible), then tire wear should be roughly the same. It'll be a little more since there is a small allocation (2000 lbs?) extra for electric semis, but not enormously so. The big difference though, is if much of the brake particulates are eliminated thanks to regen braking. That could easily outweigh the particulate addition of the small weight factor. Also, from a pollution argument, this assumes that you have trucks that are all compliant and healthy. With EVs, there is no opportunity for a truck to have its emission control fail or just are grandfathered in due to age. There's PLENTY of semi trucks I see around where I live that seem to belch black smoke when they accelerate. Replace those with EVs (which, the value proposition would make itself for short-haul diesels should make itself) and you have a noticeably cleaner city. That isn't even accounting for trucks that idle for long periods of time. When talking about local construction jobs, I've seen rows of semis idling downtown waiting for their turn to pick up rubble or deliver materials.
