I usually put it in Efficient with sensitive passengers so it dulls the acceleration a bit and it helps. If it’s really bad I just drive in D instead of B. I’m sure you all do this.

If you’re all worried about tire life, switch to aftermarket tires. They will last 2-3x as long as OE tires. OE tires are artificially made to be bad at treadlife because the tire manufacturer was the lowest bidder to the OEM and they make back the R&D money on overpriced replacements which sell faster if they don’t last as long.
