Selling Services: Reading Tires to Diagnose Suspension Problems Fresno CA
If you read a tire and find more wear in the center area of the tread than the side ribs, the tire may be too wide for the rim or it may be suffering from chronic underinflation. A low profile tire that's too wide for a rim may not make full contact with the pavement at the side ribs, causing the center of the tread to wear more rapidly.

As a rule, all tires should wear evenly across the full face of the tread as long as wheel alignment is correct, the tires are maintained at the recommended inflation pressure, and the vehicle is driven sensibly. Any kind of tire wear that deviates from the norm, therefore, usually indicates trouble. SHOULDER WEAR
Take heavy outer shoulder wear, for example. This kind of wear can be caused by camber or toe misalignment, which in turn may be the result of worn control arm bushings, ball joints or tie rod ends, or possibly a bent strut, steering arm or spindle. If a thorough inspection of the steering and suspension reveals no faults, the heavy wear probably means somebody has 
an aggressive driving problem and likes to push the limits of adhesion when taking corners. Rapid shoulder wear on the front tires may also be "normal" on some 4x4 trucks, vans and minivans because of the vehicle's steering geometry. All vehicles are supposed to have a certain amount of "Ackerman" built into the steering linkage so the front wheels will toe-out with respect to one another when they are turned. Caster can have an effect here, too. Caster causes the wheels to lean or tilt when steered, which changes camber (called "camber roll"). CAMBER OR TOE WEAR?
Shoulder wear on the inner or outer edge of a tire is often interpreted as camber misalignment. Too much positive camber can accelerate wear on the outer shoulder of a tire just as too much negative camber can accelerate wear on... |
