Uneven tyre wear: causes and how to prevent it
4 min read
By the Pinchazos Vargas team
In short
Uneven wear is usually caused by lack of maintenance, poor alignment, incorrect inflation pressure or worn suspension components. Spotting it early extends the life of the tyre.
How to spot it
Wear on the edges: usually low pressure.
Wear in the centre: excessive pressure.
Wear on one side only: an alignment problem.
Irregular or patchy wear: suspension or balancing.
How to prevent it
Check the pressure regularly, have the wheels aligned when you notice the car pulling to one side and balance the wheels when fitting new tyres.
The solution at the workshop
We diagnose the cause, carry out the alignment and, if necessary, replace the tyres with others from the best brands.
