we have two cars one has 25,000 miles on it and the other 12,000 miles both purchased new in TV and they both are subject to daily trips thought the circles and none of the tires either car show any wear whatsoever. Your post is not true.

Absolutely. On my ten year old Yamaha gas cart I have 3 original tires and they still look almost new. The right rear I had to replace three years ago because I didn't notice the pressure had gotten low and the edge wore out. It pays to look on the right rear side once in awhile.

Only goes out of alignment it you hit curves or jump over parking lot concrete slabs and have warn suspension parts. Course tire company going say that.

That will work if they remembered which day.

Probably would.
If.
You were able to park your car with the tire in exactly the same spot each time, and over a long period.
Think about it?

This is fake news.

What a load of rubbish re-tyre wear. We have roundabouts everywhere in the UK and some that would blow your mind (Google the magic roundabout - not the TV show - there's one in Swindon and another in Hemel Hempstead) and after driving here for 50 odd years the tyre wear is due to tracking mis-allignment and tyre pressure. By the way the word is Tyre not Tire ... Tire means getting fatigued ..the Y is there to differentiate the meanings ...just saying.

Dont rouse the natives!
They do tire, we do tyre, and they will not tire in telling you that we are wrong!

Pretty sure you should rotate your tires every 5 to 6K miles, if you want to get the max life out of them
of course tire pressure
also pretty sure front wheel drive cars, wear the tires out faster than rear wheel

I learned that leaving your turn signals on the whole time wears them out, but that's not going to stop me from doing it

turning them on and off as needed wears out the switch, so it's a no-win situation

naaaaa ! it's not the circle's

And for excessive round about wear....do like they do at Daytona, provide more air pressure to the right side tires. 😜

One of the things my husband taught me is when you get an oil change have them rotate your tires.
