Abnormal Tire Wear

[pjagg]

I've got a 2001 X5 Sport 4.4L. The back tires are 315/35/ZR20. The right rear inside is wearing very quickly as of a month ago. The driver side is fine. The inside of the passenger is down to the steel belts. About 2" from the inside is now smooth while the rest of the tire is fine. The driver side is not wearing out like this. I know they're set up with negative camber but something is causing my passenger inside tire to get eaten up quickly. Any ideas? Thanks.

Also, get some new tires..Down to the metal threads is pretty much waiting for a blowout...

Incorrect tire pressure may be the culpret.

I have neutralized my rear camber so my rear wheels no longer angle in: // \\

Handling is as good as ever. I do have 315's with 30mm spacers widening the rear track so I do not know if that has any effect on the handling.

Thanks for the help!

Alignment - had the same issue awhile back.

Also get the subframe bushes checked - they are a resonable common failure.
A pair of my bushed failed on one side which caused the subfram to move slightly and resulted in the rear tracking to be out cauing the tire wear youve described.
Worth getting them checked if you getting an alignment done.
