Reason for Right-Hand Tire Wear- ing Fastest Explained. The fact’ that tires on the right- hand side of.a car wear out faster in proportion than those on the’ left- hand side often puzzles motorists. The popular supposition that this wear is caused: by turning many cor- ners to the right is ineorrect. The fact is that the increased wear is actually cansed by the pitch of the road, which throws more of the car on the right side than on the left, ac- cording to Motor Life. The round of the road from curb to curb is far more important in deter- mining the sequence in which tires normally wear out—right rear, left gear, right front, left front—than is gutter wear and abrasions from grinding off and on pavemendts. The slope of the road causes the right rear tire to carry more weight than the left rear tire. Thus the right rear wears the faster of the two. The right front also will wear more rapidly than the left front, for the same reason. However, as the left rear wheel re- ceives a driving pull .while the right front does not, it will wear the faster of the two. Under average conditions’ the right rear tire wears out first and the left front last. To secure uniform wear from a set of 'tires, change them around about once a month. Particulagly is Ll‘-im- portant. to. reyérse the rear tire: After the reaf tires are worn down, reverse them with th ronts 1017 14th St. Willard Battery Service Station years of experience. spected Company E of the uniform rank, complimenting Capt.
