Premature Tyre Wear

[stephenj88]

Can anyone help?

I have just had my front tyres replaced (996 C2) and have found that the insie shoulder of both L and R tyres are heavily worn in comparison to the oustide edges.

Is this normal or is there somethin that I need to do?

Many thanks in advance for any advice

I would take it to a good suspension shop and have it aligned. Sounds like you have too much camber. Maybe the previous owner may have made some change to the stock Porsche settings

I agree with phllipj. It is common for those who track their cars to take their camber settings to the most negative value they can obtain because it is advantageous to do so on the track. However, off the track, this leads to just the wear pattern you have.

Sounds like you need to have the front end checked and a good alignment is in order. My fronts have been doing great, my rears were wearing out every 8-10 thousand. 2+ sets of rears to 1 set of fronts. I had the alignment adjusted and so far my rears are lasting. Time will tell. BTW, I also autocross.
