What causes inner tire wear on the rear wheels of a Mazda3?
2 Answers
Mazda3 rear wheel inner tire wear is caused by inaccurate four-wheel alignment data. It is necessary to replace the worn tires and then perform a four-wheel alignment. Tire wear refers to abnormal accelerated wear on the inner or outer side of one or more tires, where a specific part of a tire wears out much faster compared to the other tires. The Mazda3 is a vehicle under Changan Mazda, with body dimensions of 4515mm in length, 1745mm in width, and 1465mm in height, a wheelbase of 2640mm, a minimum ground clearance of 121mm, and a top speed of 187 km/h. The Mazda3 has undergone significant improvements in core technologies such as chassis, body, and powertrain, greatly enhancing the vehicle's performance and luxury level, resulting in a substantial upgrade in product grade.
I recently noticed that the inner side of my Mazda 3's rear tires is wearing out unusually fast, so I looked into the possible causes. The most common issue is problems with the suspension system, such as loose rear shock absorbers or deformed suspension arms, which cause the wheels to misalign and the tire angles to tilt, putting excessive pressure on the inner edges and leading to rapid wear. It could also be related to wheel alignment—if rear wheel parameters like camber or toe aren't properly adjusted, the tires will wear unevenly as the car moves. Low tire pressure can also worsen inner tire wear. Additionally, frequent driving on rough roads or aggressive cornering can cause uneven tire stress and accelerate the problem. If left unfixed, this issue not only drastically reduces tire lifespan but also risks losing control while driving, which is highly unsafe. I recommend taking it to a professional repair shop to inspect the suspension and alignment before hitting the road again for peace of mind.
