What are the causes of inner tire wear on front wheels?
2 Answers
There are several reasons for inner tire wear on front wheels: 1. Inaccurate wheel alignment: When a car's wheel alignment is inaccurate, the tires will naturally experience deviation or abnormal wear. If abnormal tire wear is detected, timely adjustments should be made to avoid tire blowouts due to uneven wear while driving, which also affects the normal service life of the tires and increases driving safety hazards. 2. Incorrect toe adjustment: Toe refers to the slight inward tilt angle of the front wheels. If this angle deviates, it will cause tire wear.
I've repaired many front wheel issues, and inner tire wear is quite common. The main cause is incorrect wheel alignment, especially improper camber angle settings, leading to excessive friction on the inner side of the tire. Suspension system failures are also a major factor, such as leaking shock absorbers or deformed control arms, causing uneven tire wear; worn steering tie rods can result in inconsistent wheel angles. Insufficient or excessive tire pressure, or frequent driving on rough roads with sharp turns, can also accelerate inner tire wear. I recommend regularly checking alignment data, approximately every two years for calibration; using a tire pressure gauge monthly to maintain standard pressure; and slowing down on uneven roads. Timely detection and repair can prevent premature tire failure, saving on replacement costs.
