How to Solve Uneven Tire Wear on Cars?
1 Answers
Solutions for uneven tire wear on cars: 1. Perform wheel alignment: Inaccurate wheel alignment, such as incorrect toe adjustment, can cause uneven tire wear. The front wheels tilt slightly inward at an angle similar to pigeon toes. If the angle is too large or improperly adjusted, uneven tire wear will occur. In this case, wheel alignment is needed to solve the problem. 2. Adjust tire pressure: Excessive tire pressure not only affects ride comfort but also causes the middle of the tire to wear unevenly. On the other hand, insufficient tire pressure can damage the tire, even the wheel hub, and lead to uneven wear on both sides of the tire. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the tire pressure according to the manufacturer's recommended value. Additionally, to reduce uneven tire wear caused by abnormal tire pressure, check the tire pressure at least once a month. 3. Replace old tires: When tires are severely worn, replacing only one or two tires will result in different friction levels among the four tires, which can also cause uneven wear. 4. Replace high-quality wheel hubs: When a wheel hub is deformed, it can also lead to uneven tire wear, and the hub should be replaced. The cause of hub deformation may be continued driving with insufficient tire pressure. 5. Replace rubber bushings: If all tires show regular wear on the same side, it indicates that the thrust rod rubber bushing is damaged and needs to be replaced.
