Why Tires Wear Unevenly ( Top 5 Reasons)

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Tires in my opinion are one of the most important things on a car. Often times, people treat tires as a set it and forget it type of thing, which shouldn't be the case. Tires need care and attention just like any other part on your vehicle.
Have you noticed your tires wearing unevenly? Are they slick on one side but not the other? Your tires could be indicating that you have a deeper problem. In this video, I explain the top 5 reasons your tire could be wearing unevenly. I'll show you different wear patterns and what causes each one.

    I bought new tires for my Crown Victoria. but front tires only lasted for 6 months, because my alignment is messed up. Make sure to check the alignment when you decide to invest on tires for old or high mileage used car.

    Thanks for this! I think my tires may be slightly under inflated because there is sone extra wear on the outside. I also think my shocks or springs are needing replacement because the car bounces around a bit whenever I go over rough roads. The question that I have not found the answer to is this: do front or rear tires wear faster on a FWD vehicle? I have a Lexus RX330. I rotate the tires every 5000 miles with the oil change. My front tires are at about 7/32 and my rear tires are at 5/32.
