Front nside tire wear

[rustedrotors]

Anybody seeing alot of inside tire wear on the front. Both driver and passenger front.

I drive in rural areas with horrible potholes, so I got to have some sidewall. The 18 inch contrinentals are just about out of tread on the very inside, only 7,000 miles. Have not rotated yet. Just getting her ready for summer and noticed it. I have alignment tools and will be checking the toe on it. Riding seems great, A touch of oversteer, which is par for the course with this kinda car.

Never peel out, but im hard on turns. These cars need 5,000 mile rotations. Not sure what they advise.

These conti's won't last too long. However, still got to stick with 18's. Any advice on tires would be great. Drive some nasty roads and car sees rain. Car's only driven in the summer. No snow.

Definitely check alignment. These cars all seem to be out of spec from the factory...

And rotation @ oil change works well for me.

I have the DH, 7,300 miles and even wear on the shit pirelli p zero trofeo rs tires. Inside tire wear is from negative camber. Natively the front camber is not adjustable (speaking from my DH). Before I had 50 miles on my S650, I installed modified "handling pack" upper strut mounts to cure this issue. Purchased from Ford, ground them out almost a half inch, installed thus in my eyes curing this issue. Many will argue moving the wheels to zero camber affects handling, it does in the eyes of a track car. My ride won't ever see that sort of driving. I am very allergic to purchasing tires.

Here is south east SD dual driving, gravel roads are a normal everyday thing. I take the DH down them frequently at highway speeds with no tire/wheel issues so far with the exception of a ton of car wash and detailing supplies.

If you were not aware, Ford offers one free alignment in the first 12 months of ownership. The Warranty Guide will have narrative in support of that.

Below are two tools I use. One, a manual tire gauge. The other, a tread depth gauge. Pressures are checked consistently. Tread depth, about once a quarter.

I've got a square setup and rotate tires once a year.

Too much wear on the inside = too much negative camber. Negative camber good for the track, but not normal daily driving.
