Does Uneven Tire Wear Have You Down?
There is something more than just disappointing about realizing that one or two of your tires are wearing out at different rates. The two main causes of uneven wear are either tires and wheels which are out of balance or wheels (especially on the front axle) which are not properly aligned.
Most tire shops are very careful when it comes to balancing your tires and wheels after the installation of a new or used tire on your wheel, but the balancing weights can occasionally come off, throwing the wheel out of balance.
Inspect your Tires Weekly
It does not take long - simply do a quick walk-around the vehicle once a week and check the wheels and tires; make sure the tires are properly inflated as an under-inflated tire can also cause unnatural tread wear and reduce the miles per gallon you will get out of your vehicle!
When you notice uneven wear, take your car in to get the balance and alignment checked, and every time you change oil in your car get in the habit of rotating your tires - this will also help keep your tread-wear even as long as all the other things mentioned above are in good shape!
