tire wear

Maybe 7000 miles on new tires. On my 69 c10 rear tires are close to wear bars and front tires still look new. I'll rotate them and check wear again. How many miles are you guys getting out of your tires. Sorry for the rusty pics.

Re: tire wear

Quit smokin' 'em off at stoplights.....

You may want to just buy some new rears, or leave it alone. I always keep the deeper tread tire on the front - better steering control, especially when wet.

Re: tire wear

Looks like some of your rear tire is stuck to the bottom of your bed lol.

Re: tire wear

Ever had a 4 wheel alignment??? It can tell you many things.

Many shops do this, but good front end alignment guys, are hard to find...
