GFY MATH HEADS! If you took a new car, with new tires...
 
And drove it in a basically clockwise direction all day long - (I Dont mean doing 'Doughnuts') - Just only turning left on a minimal amount of juctions...

Which two tires would ware out first? The two on the left, or the two on the right? :helpme

I dont know if i'd call that a math question, but assuming we're driving around in a circle the two on the left would travel a greater distance and have more weight on them so they'd wear out first.

Two on the right?

Well, we are not driving in an EXACT circle - Per-say - But in an 'overall' clockwise loop on a standard daily journey...

There is NO 'Correct Answer' where I say 'YOU WIN' lol

I'm just checking out why I need two new tyres on the left side of my new car, as opposed to a diff differential :)

Never: But I do tend to drive in a clockwise loop most days...

Well, I have two basic trips I take, on a daily basis - If not once then perhaps 3 / 4 times...

Trip one - Local store - Out of driveway, turn R Then L, then R, Then R, then Left.... I'm at store but turn right into parking space... Return home. Revers L, then turn R, then Im home..

Trip 2 - Post office - Out of driveway, turn R Then L, then R, Then R, then Left, then R, then R, then R, / L / R / L / R then home...

Trip 1 5 Rights... 2 Lefts...

Trip 2 8 Rights... 4 Lefts...

Its a one way system. I have to obey the rules...

In other words, I'm turning RIGHT MUCH more than LEFT :)

I think they recommend an alignment every 6 months

Serious answer, outside tyres, however if wheels are not aligned and balanced, they will add to the problem.

Dumb answer, ask these guys, they seem to be well versed in *doughnuts*

Same thing happened with our car less than a year old and had very hard ware on one side here it costs about $70 for a 4 wheel alignment and a little less if only a 2 wheel alignment.
if its brand new i would ask the place you got it from and say whats happening you never know they might do it for free

The Milton Keynes bus drivers know this, to even it out swap the left and right around after some months :2 cents:

Rotate your tires every 5000 km or so.
