Front passenger tire wear
Anyone have the front passenger wear faster than the other tires? I assume this is just bad alignment, but I wanted to see if anyone else had a similar issue.
I did have my alignment done about 10k miles ago and I just noticed the front passenger is at 2/32 and the other tires are all 5/32 or 6/32. |

Alignment is the first thing to check, but can be that something is wrong with the suspension too, presumably damper, or ball joint..
Your daily route may put more load on that tire as well |

I'll definitely check the alignment. hopefully nothing is wrong with the suspension. The only things I can think of that affected the suspension/alignment is I did have my front wishbones replaced under warranty about 8k miles ago (I don't believe they did an alignment after). The other thing is my wife did hit a pot hole that scratched up the right side rims

So the alignment was done before the wishbones were replaced? Then most likely ur alignment is out of spec. Anytime any suspension components r replaced an alignment is required.

When I had my Wishbones replaced under warranty (last month) an alignment was part of the work order to be done. I too have outer tire wear on both of my front tires which suck since the rears are still in good shape. I thought with the alignment it would buy me more time but doesn't appear to be the case when I last looked.
