Outside of front left tyre badly worn

[Chalk]

Hi Guys. The outside of my front left tyre is badly worn as compared

To the rest of the tyres. The inside is ok. Just the outside is really worn.

Any ideas on what might be the problem?

Thanks!!

hmmm...u alwes turn right ah..and take hard right corners...OR...your wife heavy??? kididng...

 

there is a possible mislignment and the toe in for the left camber might be extreme. Get an alignment done

[TVT]

Should be an alignment problem. I had the same problem a month ago - left front tyre going botak (inside/outside) while the other 3 still with plenty of tread.

Camber and toe problem. If yr rid is not pulling side way then it is 100% camber problem.

pay 100+ for a camber kit... by once on it every now and then have to go back do alignment..

To add. My steering abit pointing off centre. To the left.

It's alright if it's just an alignment problem.

Can it also be due to suspension problem?

Just trying to think of the possible problems.

The wear pattern will be high low wear patches on the tyres if yr shock is faulty

Did you lowered your ride with lowering springs bro?

[Chalk]

No lowered spring. Complete stock glx.

If you rid is using Macpherson struts ( most Asia car do use such design) then you may have to restore to using camber bolts. For those cars using wishbone independent struts, the camber angle can be adjusted either with shims or offset bolts.

Really? Then that's good to hear cos the botakness is very even.

Just hoping its not suspension or the whatever arm problem.

Will the camber "run off" by itself? Due to loose bolts?

[Dee_farrell]

I see..alignment,camber,toe..these are the possibilities.get it checked to ur wkshop to ease ur worries.

do you park in a HDB multi storey car park at home or multi storey carpark at work? or both?

[Yeobh]

Yes overtime, camber setting angle will change due to tyre rotation/movement forces.

that is why... pay 50bucks do computerized alignment pay until scared... do any thing the settings will run... thats y have to plan sui sui change tires and shocks same time, but tire rotation LL...
