Car is my93wrx
Just changed the tyres all round,the front two, the tyre wear was even all over...
the back two...frightening.!! The outer edges had 3mm of tread left, the insides on both, were slick, and one had a touch of white showing. I check the tyres regularly, but only been checking the outsides..of course, they looked fine. It drives fine also....will hold a straight line.
Anybody any ideas what could cause such extreme type wear on both 'insides' of the rear tyres.
Cheers
Frank
edited to add, ....im running standard 16" wheels, on original set up suspension...no mods.

Frank,the rear wheels can be alligned for camber and this is what is probably wrong,give me an e-mail and i will give you the details of a guy i use who works for Supertracker and he will get it sorted,he worked on my car for 2 hours sorting my allignment out (Front/Rear) which 3 garages including Subaru said was fine.
Car handles great and no more uneven tyre wear.

hiya,
ive got a similar problem but my front tyres are completely bald on inside and got 4mm on outside.
does anyone have the correct camber settings for the front as my garage doesnt seem to know although they had enough brains to recommend I check this site out?
cheers

My front tyres wore on the inside first.
I had my car checked by a couple of palces with laser alignment including Powerstation. All of them said the alignment was almost perfect and not worth bothering to alter.
It takes some effort to check them not like on the outside!
