Tires eat, but why?
Abnormal tire wear is referred described as "tire eating." Tire eating can occur for a variety of reasons and manifests itself in different ways.
1. In general, there are numerous explanations:
1) The suspension's installation or adjustment is problematic;
2) After being adjusted, the suspension will alter while driving since some of its components are damaged or of poor quality;
3) When welding the axle, the upper and lower support plates' left and right asymmetry;
4) issues with the quality of steel rims;
5) Issues with air path quality. partial tire devouring of a single tire may result from improperly timed braking, too fast brake locking, etc.
6) Uneven distribution of the vehicle's center of gravity results in uneven tire force and tire eating. Uneven force on the tires as a result of an excessively wide variation in leaf spring stiffness is another aspect of this scenario;
7) The entire vehicle's center line is shifted, resulting in a zigzag walking pattern when driving, which wears out the tires on both sides.
2. The axle-related reasons:
1) Axle bending-induced tire eating, which primarily affects the inner side of the inner tire. The outer tire may sustain more significant damage if the axle bends forward or backward.
2) The camshaft and brake shoe are not correctly returned;
3) Because the brake drum is out of round, the tire wears down quickly and remains in the same place each time the brake is used.
