Here are a few pics of my front and rear tires. I have 15,XXX miles on the car and the ones in the back were up front and rotated only 3,XXX miles ago. What the hell is wrong here?!?!? or is this normal?

This is the driver front tire...you can see the inside of the tire is worn bad


This one is a pic of the passenger side tire which is even worse...there is a lip that has formed on the edge of the tire on the inside...almost like it rubbed that way...


And these are a two pics of the back ones which used to be in the front...inside, again, is worn.

 

Normal! IMO

 

Its from the negative camber. It seems to be normal. 15k miles is about what the stock tires are worth give or take some.

 

very normal on a car that is alligned for handling

Make sure your air pressure is up and rotate those tires often

also the advans are a very quick wearing tire

if you wanted you could have your car alligned less aggresive but it would take away at how fun the car is to drive

 

Time for a new set. they have lived their life! RIP

 

normal,,,,,, i just recently replaced mine....

 

the advans tend to do that and make sure the tire psi is adjusted according to the manual

 

This is normal for the amount of camber our cars have. You can get an alignment and change to less agressive camber but it will decrease the handling. !5k is more than I got out of my first set. So your doing better than most.

 

ok, thanks guys

 

Seems like you have to corner hard to even out wear
With stock alignment, I was wearing out the outside more...

 

in the future, you can rotate the tires every 3750 miles as the owner's manual recommends for extreme driving conditions. this will help the tires wear more evenly along the inner ridge.

 

It's NOT from the camber on the Evo if the car is still within the allignment specs from the factory. It's the toe that causes the issue on otherwise stock Evo's.

Right now, I have about 1.5-2.0 degrees of negative camber, but my toe is zero and I'm experiencing ZERO excessive wear.

If the toe of the front wheels are spec'd "out", the inside edge of the tire makes the first contact with the pavement instead of the entire cross-section of the tread which is what causes the wear.

Get your toe fixed. While your at it, if your camber needs adjusting from lowering springs or coilovers, do it at the same time, but the Evo's are "toed out" from the factory which causes that issue.

 

if the pressure is too much it could cause uneven wear on the outside of the tire, so that COULD be a problemm, but who knows.

 

Before you get new tires, get a four wheel alingment. This will save your next set. Evo are notorious about coming from factory with messed up alingments. Just my .02

 

I'll second that. I had mine aligned at 1.25 degrees negative all around after I lowered it. With the toe zeroed, my Advans are wearing perfectly even.
