1 tire with outer wear showing
Well I got my rx330 back from the dealer after they replaced a front strut ball bearing on the passenger side. The driver side they didn't change. Well after about 200 miles. I noticed that the drivers side rear tire is wearing a little more on the outer edges(the line closes to the outer edges has dissappeared. It really isn't that bad but maybe thats because I have only driven about 200 miles. However the car doesn't seem to be pulling at all and I check the tire pressure and its all at 30 psi. It's just strange its only that tire. The tires were rotated about 5000 miles ago. Could the ball bearing replacement throw off the alignment? I know the steering wheel feels much more tighter. I am going to have the dealer take look at it but I was just curious if anyone has ever just had wear on one tire?
