Tires treaded, Suspension Recomendations

SanFranFortyGiantsNiner · 12-21-2009, 04:40 PM

So my E93 is lowered with Eibach 1" fronts .25 Rears. Its been lowered four months now and I just noticed my tires are treaded, BAD.. My new wheels and tires should be in soon but to avoid this in the future, does any one have suggestion. Thanks in advance..

Wow, that does look bad. What kind of springs do you have and which tire is that or are they all looking that worn?

Eibachs, been on for about 4 months now. They are my rear tires..

Have you gotten the car aligned? If you have how hard have you been driving the thing?

Yeah, that seems odd. I'd expect the inside to wear out as you naturally increase camber and change the toe when lowering the car. Looks like you have been driving the shit out of it.

I have to get them realigned... But wow, luckily I just noticed them.. I really dont drive it that hard.

Check your alignment, I am sure you have too much toe-in.

The rear tires of M3 wears pretty evenly if not toward to inner side.
Outside wear on rear tires usually happens because of excessive toe-in.
