Tire issues
Hey guys. I am wondering if someone can help me out with some info.
I checked my front tires yesterday and noticed that on the passenger side my tire is wearing evenly but the driver side tire is wearing on the outside.
I am wondering if this is a toe-in issue or a camber issue. I do a lot of cornering on my drive to work if that matters.
If this is a camber issue does this vehicle have an adjustment for that because when I look it up on the internet it says no.
Thanks.

Hmmmm ....
Could be either one. If the wear on the outside of the tire is smooth/equal all the way around, I'd look at CAMBER first, but if the wear is not smooth (cupped), then I'd look at TOE-IN. In any event, sounds like you need a trip to the alignment rack ... and possibly a couple of new tires if they are worn really bad.
