Question 8006
What can cause uneven wear on a vehicle's tires?
- Keeping the tires inflated to the pressure recommended by the manufacturer.
- Driving with a mass below the maximum authorized mass.
- A suspension or shock absorbers in poor condition.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: A suspension or shock absorbers in poor condition.
With the suspension or shock absorbers in poor condition, the wheel bounces and does not maintain proper contact with the ground, so some areas of the tire wear more than others. Keeping the tires at the manufacturer's recommended pressure or driving below the maximum authorized mass is correct and does not cause this wear.
