Uneven tyre wear
Discussion
I noticed the rear left hand side tyre on my Renault Master is very uneven.
Can't be tracking, it's not that kind of wear![confused](/inc/images/confused.gif)
It looks and feels like an old threepenny bit (remember those
)
Any idea what the cause is? It's front wheel drive and is never loaded above it's design weight.
Thanks

uneven as in patchy?
Yes, very patchy. As to type of tyres, they are Michelins and came on the van when I bought it new. Two years old now and done 60,000 miles on them, so no complaints, apart from this one tyre.Interesting point about shocks though, never thought of that!

according to all the posters in MOT stations etc anyway
WOT he said^^^^^^^^according to all the posters in MOT stations etc anyway
My mate had the same prob with his Mrs Citroen.
Also accpmpanied by a thump-thump-thump niose at anything above 50 and speed related.
Took the wheel off and it had a huge bulge across the tread.
then she quietly drops into the conversation that she hit a huge pothole a few dats ago and forgot to mention that the niose started straight after.
