Wierd Tire Wear - 11/11/2006 2:18:51 PM    kngflp   Posts: 9 Joined: 11/11/2006 Status: offline The 93 jimmy I just bought has some wierd tire wear up front. The inside and outside of the front tires are both worn down pretty bad. I am sure the tires were at some point rotated due to either the inside or outside wearing down prematurely however I can't tell which one? Which would be more likey on a 4x4? I don't think the suspension has been adjusted any up front more more cleareance so I am just guessing that the front end is sagging a bit causing the tire wear. What can I do to remedy this situation? Adjust torsion bars? Post #: 1
