| Wear | Cause |
| More wear on the edges of the tread than in the middle | Tire pressure too low |
| Greater wear in the center of the tread compared to the edges around the entire perimeter of the tire | Tire pressure is too high. |
| Tread washout on the edge | Static and dynamic imbalance of the wheel. Probably due to too much lateral runout of the rim, or too much play in the suspension joints |
| Tread washout in the middle of the tread | Static wheel imbalance. Result of large tire height runout |
| Scaly or saw-tooth tread wear. In special cases, it is associated with a break in the cord threads, which over time becomes visible from the outside | Overloading the vehicle. Check the inside of the tire for cord breaks. |
| Rubber stretching on the sidewalls of the tread | Incorrect installation of wheels. On the rear wheels, also check the condition of the shock absorber! |
| Ridges on the side of the front wheel tread | Incorrect wheel alignment. Frequent driving on bumpy roads. Fast driving on turns. |
| Tire carcass ruptures. Initially visible only from inside the tire | Driving over sharp edges of stones, rails, etc. at high speed. |
| One-sided tread wear | Check the camber |
