radial_xterrain-iiGetting the longest life out of your tires can be somewhat of a challenge.  The two biggest killers in tire wear are improper alignment and abnormal tire pressures.

If you are seeing abnormal tire wear on your vehicle then it may be caused by one or both of these factors.

If you have not had your tire pressures checked lately then maybe it’s time to put the tire gauge to good use.

Too low of tire pressures cause abnormal wear through out the whole tire, it also causes heat build up within the tire also.

If you are seeing wear on the outer edges of your tire then this could be caused by improper alignment.  Caster and Camber are usually the two culprits when it comes to outer or inner wear of the tire.

It is a good idea to get your vehicle aligned before purchasing new tires if you are seeing this kind of wear.
