Common Tire Wear Problems

Tire Tread Wear: A Window into Your Vehicle's Health

Tire tread wear patterns offer valuable clues about tire pressure, alignment issues, and potential mechanical problems.

Common Wear Patterns and Their Causes:

  • Edge wear (both sides): Typically indicates underinflation.
  • Center wear: Often a sign of overinflation.
  • Uneven edge wear (one side): Suggests a wheel alignment problem.
  • Camber wear: Excessive inner or outer rib wear points to potential alignment issues, such as sagging springs or worn suspension components.
  • Feathering: Rounded edges on one side of the tread ribs and sharp edges on the other usually signify incorrect toe-in settings or worn suspension bushings.

Regular tire maintenance is essential:

  • Check tire pressure monthly.
  • Inspect tires for wear and damage.
  • Rotate tires every 5,000 miles.
  • Address any unusual wear patterns promptly.
