RIDICULOUS Tire Wear

allhans · #1 04-16-2009, 06:30 PM

I was never happy with these stock Goodyear Wrangler HPs on my 20" wheels, but this is ridiculous. Look at the wear on my front tires after only 3000 miles! The rear tires look fine.

You can see the inside corner is rounded off due to excess wear. The inside edge is considerably more worn than the outer edge. Some of the tread marks are already gone on the inside. The other front tire is the same. You can also see in the side shot that the individual tread squares are worn unevenly front to back.

Please check your Rams for similar wear.

Take the truck to the dealer, that is ridiculous. Its certainly not the tires fault even though the goodyears aren't great. Mine have 12000 miles so far with one rotation and they look perfect.

agreed, the dealer should replace those

You need a front end alignment.

Looks like a toe issue. Negative camber can cause this too, but usually its a little more gradual across the tire unless its way off. The dealer should be able to fix that with an alignment.

Took the Ram in. Toe was way off...I think it's been that way from the beginning.

Seems better now. Quieter.

The worn tires are now on the rear...should even out.

Thanks for the help.

I just took mine to get the alignment checked and they said they didn't feel the pull but that sucker pulls to the left. I might take it back after this.

Mine just started pulling to the left this evening. I can't believe a truck with 800 miles is pulling to the left. It's pulls real bad when I brake. Keep us posted on your results. I might take mine to the dealer this week and find out.

I, too, feel a little pull to the left but have not noticed the tire wear as in the pics. I have almost 2k on the vehicle! I plan to have it checked when I do the first oil change...plus have the outside temp gauge checked on the EVIC!!!
