DonnyJerry Posted November 8, 2017 Report Share Posted November 8, 2017 I noticed that my 2012 fwd had its rear tires tipping in at the top and now I've noticed that the insides of the tires are bald all around the inside circumference. Other than the need for a straight forward wheel alignment what else could be the problem? Anything specific to the vehicle anyone knows of? Not sure if this is relevant but the rear suspension has also had a mumber of "creaking" bushings. Thanks for any help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfurth Posted November 8, 2017 Report Share Posted November 8, 2017 Your alignment is seriously out of whack if you could see the camber was out just by looking at it. I'd recommend you get the entire rear suspension thoroughly inspected for worn/failed components. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonnyJerry Posted November 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2017 You can only barely see the camber out. I noticed the problem when I was checking the tire wear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2late4u Posted November 8, 2017 Report Share Posted November 8, 2017 my 2014 crossroad with 67k on it i noticed the rear tires wearing on the inside all the way around ,so took it for a 4 wheel alignment which cost you more then the 2 wheel alignment expect to pay around 79 -90 for it i had mine done at my dealership cost me 89. the guy said the front end was in spec but said the rear was out quite a bit, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PGRChaplain Posted November 19, 2017 Report Share Posted November 19, 2017 Thats a Lot! Do you typically haul heavy things, or have stuff in the rear "basement"? If so have it Aligned with the weight onboard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2late4u Posted November 20, 2017 Report Share Posted November 20, 2017 (edited) actually i asked about that as i carry my wife's 3 wheel scooter (200 lb) and the hitch was about (50 lb) and he said that shouldn't affect or cause it to go out of alignment it is from the road wear and tear is what can knock it out, but i would assume carrying something heavy might make it easier to go bad.

DonnyJerry Posted November 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2017 Around here we drive on what's left of the road so it could simply be an alignment issue! Will have this addressed when I return from vacation. The reason I thought it may be more of an issue was because of the obnoxious creaking noise coming from back there! Will keep you posted!
