Stock advan balding

I was installing my exhaust today and while i was underneath the car, I noticed that my front tires are balding on the inside. It only has 7,000 miles and the rear tires are still in good shape. The front tires still got good treddings but only on the inside is wearing out fast, about 2inches long. Why is it doing that? I have'nt messed with the springs or anything with the suspension. Need some info...Thanks

Our stock advans do not last long. Before I dropped my car, the inside were wearing out already. Then after I changed my springs and got it aligned, they started wearing out evenly now. My suggestion is to get an alignment, to get a lil more life out of them. Keep in mind the stock tires will not last long though.....

I don't know its hard to say, most likely they wouldnt cover tires. I could be wrong tho, I will just get an alignment to factory specs. What part of philipines you are from pare?

Wow. I must be really good at taking care of my baby. I have under 14,000 miles and I still have good tread left. There also doesn't seem to be any uneven wear. I'd say they last pretty long. It's funny how the manufacturer says the life expectancy is only 10,000 miles. It also helps to have a set of winters. This way you are not on the Advans as much.

^^ Have you rotated your tires yet ?

Considering your alignment is in specs and right tire pressures.
Your front tires are going to wear out faster than the rears beacause of the weight over them. I rotate mine every oil change ( 3K ).

Also the way the factory suspension is set up. Maximun handling = neg. camber.

I doubt Mitsu is going to do anything but it doesn't hurt to try.

Good luck..tol
