Abnormal or Excessive Tire Wear

Irregular or premature tire wear has many causes, including the following:
^ Incorrect inflation pressure
^ Lack of regular rotation
^ Driving habits
^ Improper tire and wheel alignment

If tire and wheel alignment is reset due to a tire wear condition, always rest the toe as close to zero degrees as the specification allows.

Rotate the tires if you notice any of the following conditions:
^ Front and rear tire wear is unequal
^ The tread of any tire wear is uneven
^ Left and right front tire wear is unequal

Check tire and wheel alignment if you notice any of the following conditions:
^ Left and right front tire wear is unequal
^ The tread of any front tire wear is uneven
^ The front tire treads have a scuffed appearance with "feather" edges on one side of the tread ribs or blocks
