powderhound Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 What would make my left front tire wear out of round? And on the left rear the outside lugs only are wearing on a slant in the direction of the car. Any ideas. I do get shudder when braking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strakes Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 Theory 1: I had a set of cheap tires that did this and it went away after checking alignment and finding it was within specs and then buying a new set of tires (Wasn't too bad with a pro-rated warranty claim from the tire shop). Theory 2: Your alignment somehow is messed up. (A recent event with a monster pothole maybe?) Theory 3: Both. Maybe the front tire is suspect and the rear is getting chewed by the alignment being off. Theory 4: Check the Balljoints, Tie-rods, Struts, and other suspension items. Usually a good alignment shop will inspect these before aligning the car. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
