holy tire wear batman!

[grandma's koukis]

So here's the scoop. I put brand new tires on my front wheels about a month ago, they've only got a thousand or so so miles on them. While working on my car today I notices on the iner side of the tread the wire is already showing! What gives?! I run 0 camber on the front. I have tein he's, stock rods. I know it probably needs an alignment, but any ideas of what is causing this? Too much toe in or out?


Any ideas/suggestions appreciated:)

camber doesnt kill tires as much as toe... I put 40k miles on my last set of tires running -2 degrees on the front.

[AE_Racer]

toe-in/out kills tires faster than camber. get an alignment.

[J40sx]

alignment is key

[UG-T]

that extreme wear on the inside edges usuall indicate too much toe on the front there (toe out). Get new tires and align asap.

Car should even handle alot better as well

post up a before and after alignment spec sheet when you get it done

[heavenboundkevin]

hey bro, maybe you should get an alignment

[Irresistible]

Toe. Doesn't matter in/out. Will kill tires regardless. Get it aligned, and leave it alone.

[Wheelchair]

buy new tires...



...if that don't work... get a proper alignment.

[John Hammond]

you sir, need to spare some expenses on an alignment.

To sum up this post, your alignment is out of wack and need to adjust toe. Camber doesn't effect wear, it only wears one side of the tires more-so than the others due to more weight/less contact surface. Take it to firestone or something, like $30 bucks for a normal alignment. Thread over, OP happy.

Username is a play on grandma's cookies, and yes I do realize kouki is pronounced koh_key.

1 degree of toe will kill tires faster than 10 degrees of camber.

[Bushido]

you run zero camber up front?
wtf?

It's koo-key.

I figured this would be a good place to ask...

Does camber in the rear wear your tires a lot faster than camber in the front?
Im thinking so because power is being exerted on the rear but then again you have the engine weight on the front.

If I wanted to run 0-1degree in rear and 2-4degree in front would that much camber kill my front tires?

[OBEEWON]

You need more sticker bomb.

[Bushido]

It's koo-key.

No it isn't. That's just what every uninformed person in Florida thinks.

[DenkiMan!]

you can get lifetime alignments at firestone for $170 i think....lifetime meaning as long as you have the car

[joshchewuhh]

[yomisiu]
