Outside uneven tire wear
Hey guys,
I have a '91 300 E that I bought new tires for when I bought the car approximately two years ago with 186,000 miles on it. Now, the car has 207,000. miles. The tires, Dunlop H rated tires, were supposed to last up to 40,000-60,000 miles. The two front tires, which I had just rotated about 6 months ago, are now completely shot because of excessive wear on the outer edge of the top of the tires, and due to car related "mechanical problems," the tire warranty has been voided.. The tire shop told me the likely cause is negative camber. If this is true, what kinds of things cause that? What should I replace? The struts/shocks are replacement lifetime Bilsteins and they seem to be just fine. The tires don't seem to be standing awkwardkly (as in either leaning in or out). Any ideas? Thanks!
