Tires wearing super fast...Help!!

OptionZero · 12-22-2016, 11:37 PM

100% poor alignment

either a shitty shop or insufficient range of adjustment due to lack of adjustable arms

its tire wear, i dont see anything else, unless somehow you got tires completely defective

also . . . where are the alignment specs? they must have given you a printout?

and even if they didnt, they should have it saved

what is the wear pattern on the tires?

camber/toe issues would normally cause uneven wear either on the outer or inner part of the tires.

You got pics?

First set was gone after 2000 miles.

Car was aligned when done.
Tire pressure is spot on

Car is lowered on Swift Springs

Car ALSO seems to be ice skating across the road. Car seems to be all over the road

Any help would be greatly helpful!

So as an end to this thread, the cause of the issue was a horribly aligned rear end. The toe was 1.5 degrees off on the left side, and .75 degrees off on the right. Get that fixed, and things are good to go. I just wanted to update this since we got it figured out.

Did you ever figure out the warranty issue with the tires?

Yeah, they are covering the tires at 90%
