Started throwing tread off the inside edge of my right front the other day. 12,800 miles with no racing, autorcross or whatever.

You got to pay to play.

 

Yup mines are a mess and they have maybe 8k on them,

 

You guys need to zero out your TOE, not camber ... its the TOE setting that eats your tires ...
edited for mistakes ... I meant to type "toe" and typed "castor" ... weird!

 

You are completely wrong. The camber is set the way it is for responsive handling in the corners. Basically if you are looking at the car from the front, the tops of the tires would be tilted in towards each other thereby placing more weight on the inside of the tire.

Thanks anyways.

 

It's toe that eats tires, and caster is non-adjustable on the Evo. I've been running -2.5* front camber and zero toe on the front for a year now and have no abnormal tire wear. My car, along with most others, was out of alignment right off the showroom floor. That's likely why the OP has such poor tire wear.

 

According to my dealer the toe was slightly out. I personally think the toe-in with the camber made it worse on my car but you'll bever convince anyone at mitsubishi that part of the problem was there factory setting.

 

I inspect my tires for wear every few fill ups. Seems pretty easy to monitor to me.

 

I started getting broken belts in my stock tires at 6k miles. Took it to the dealer, they said tough. "We can't prove you didn't raced on them, and so you'll have to contact Yokohama yourself and put in a claim." Long story short, I never raced on them, had the car aligned twice before with my own money, and was still getting the turned shoulder. So I ditched the Advans for the AVS ES100's....been happy ever since

 

Mine were toasted at 14K. With AWD cars, its always going to wear on the inside due to when you smash the gas the car lifts and tires go in. If you have you alignment redone to "straighten" it out, then on normal highway driving they will wear, but when you accelerate it'll be okay. It's a trade off. It's my opinion, and I'm keeping mine the same. Just gotta rotate the tires every 5-6K miles.

 

Sorry I meant to type toe earlier ... not castor ... toe eats tires ...
