Re: Tire Wear Photo - Need Advice

Good to hear! One thing you'll notice about the Generals is that they're quite noisy, but it's a trade I'm willing to make for the extra life I'll get out of them.

You say the fronts were pointing inward? Strange, this would have caused the tires to wear on the outside, not the inside. I'm still going with defective tires as my diagnosis, as I said I've seen that exact wear before, and it came from a defective batch of Pirelli's. The main steel belts were either too narrow for the tread, or were off center, allowing the sidewall and shoulder to flex excessively and wear.
