I have got uneven tyre wear but only on the front left tyre, it's wearing on the outside edges of the tyre (as if it was under-inflated). Why could this be? I'm pretty sure that the pressures are normally even all round when I top the air up. Cheers, Nesh.


check them to make sure. your tracking could be out also but thats usually one side of the tyre.
