Checking tire wear pattern

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 14 other vehicles, including the 2009 Audi S4, 2009 Audi A4, 2008 Audi S4, 2008 Audi RS 4, and 2008 Audi A4. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The wear pattern of the front wheels can be used to assess whether a check of the track and camber is necessary:

Feathered edges of the treads may indicate faulty toe adjustment.
One-sided tread wear is mainly attributed to incorrect camber.

NOTE:

When wear of this nature is noticed determine cause by performing alignment checks (repair measure).
