Help!!

Baseball7382 · 08-06-2010, 11:29 AM

So, I go to put hub centric rings on my rear M6 REP 19's. I have a 2007 335xi sedan. When I take the rims off, both the back tires have been totally worn on the very inside of the tire almost down to the metal, while the outside of the tires have about half their thread left...Whats going on here? Differential? Allignment? Just wheel balancing? Any help would be appreciated...

Thats called camber wear. If your lowered, your car tends to ride on the inside of the tire (where yours are worn) and only in cornering does the full tire hit the ground. so the inside wears the fastest because its in contact with the ground the most.

Or wrong alingment regarding not just the camber, but also the toe.
