Wear On One Side, Faulty Adjustment

If the complaint is about one-sided tire wear, check the axle geometry. Billing to warranty is only possible in cases of one-sided tire wear that is caused by axle geometry errors that cannot be traced back to external effects on the tires and rims. The axle alignment log should be included with the tire complaint registration.

Due to tire skew, increased and one-sided wear. Frequently in conjunction with raised running surface to the point of ridge formation on tread edges.
