Have you noticed right rear tire wear?
Just got back from Tire Round-up and they said that Villagers have right rear tire wear because of the round-about!...Wow!
|
Wouldn't timely tire rotation prevent such tire wear?
|
Hard to imagine unless you drive in the roundabouts like this :)

Maybe we should go clockwise on odd number days and CCW on even number days. |

What about the right front tire? The term for that tire wear is "Bovine Scatology".

Note to self: Never go to Tire Round-Up.

First, The CW an CCW on the roundabouts way TOO FUNNY, thanks I needed that.
As for the tire wear. myself and maybe a 100 or more co-workers used a parking deck with one of those corkscrew exits. We had to park on the top level (#7), and then corkscrew all the way down. The surface was very rough to improve traction (this was up north), and we actually did see some additional wear on the tires. I cannot see the same thing happening on our roundabouts unless you are spending a LOT of time going in circles...... |
I don't see the logic in this. The roundabouts are essentially circles in the middle of a straight road. You turn to the left and right the same amount when going straight through the roundabouts so the wear should be even. If you consistently went 270 degrees around the roundabouts as opposed to going straight through I could see some preferential wear. The presence of roundabouts will probably increase tire wear overall compared with driving on a straight road without roundabouts but it isn't clear to me why it would preferentially pick on the right rear tire if you are primarily going straight through.

If you believe that I have a bridge in Brooklyn for sale to you

I have a slow leak in LEFT rear tire. Any explanation for that? Pulling too close to gate card thingies maybe?

I thought I've heard everything until now. I can just imagine everyone going to check their r/r tires. Finally, a post with humor to it! |
