    Uneven treadwear

    I have a lot of wear on my front tires, on the insides, outsides look fine...driver's side is much worse than passenger's. the rear has no uneven wear. I have 205/40 R17 and tein S tech springs. Any body else have this kind of wear or have any suggestions.

    After you had the springs installed, did u get an alignment? It sounds like your running a negative camber, a standard alignment will fix it. :wink:

    And stop burning out cause the drivers side will wear faster if you keep that up.

    thanks for the help...I suspected the alignment....It is definately not burnouts, hehe....I will get the alignment looked at but will probably wait until I get new tires since these are so bad and I will be getting wider tires. What do you guys think?

    Get the alignment ASAP... it will help your gas mileage and its safer with the added traction. You wont need an alignment after you change tires, so get it now if you can. :wink:
