theres no fix to this besides getting new tires and a aliment.
the inside are already warn below the recommended thread level, almost to the metal even. i would replace the tires either by complaining to the stealership or by getting your own set somewhere you like.

Night

P.S my tires would look like that except they are not torn like that by the time i change tires. center has lots of meat while the outter layers are down to the "bone"

How many miles do your tires last for? This is a regular thing for IS250s? I would expect the inner thread of the tires to be worn out greater than the middle on a lowered car, but I do not understand why this is happening to a stock car?

Going to have to get back to if it is a CPO car.. The car is actually my fiancees... but we did purchase the car from a Toyota dealership with a lifetime powertrain warranty as well as purchased the extended warranty... if it is a CPO car should this be covered?

As of right now they are not trying to cover the costs of the tires or the alignment since it has been two months... giving the argument that we could have hit a pothole or something of that sort and it is not their problem
