Subject:Front tire wear
From:William Greenamyer <greenamyer@YAHOO.COM>

For a long time now, I noticed that the edges of the tires in the front
(1984 GL) wear much more than in the back.  I never thought of asking about
this before because I assumed that it was probably something to do with the
alignment.  On thinking about it now, alignment normally would wear one
side.  The tires look like they have been run under inflated which can cause
the edge wear but I keep the tires really up on the pressure so I am
guessing it is something to do with the way turns are made.  Wear is even on
the inside and outside edges of both front tires.  Anyone have any other
input on this?
