Why Do Hyundai Santro Tyres Wear Out Unevenly on Pakistani Roads?

A lot of users notice uneven tyre wear—either inner o r outer edges wearing faster—especially after a few months of use. Is this due to improper alignment, weak shocks, bent rims, o r incorrect tyre pressure? What maintenance steps can help ensure even tyre wear?

Uneven tyre wear—especially inner/outer edges wearing quickly—is a frequent Santro problem.

Causes of Uneven Tyre Wear

Improper wheel alignment
Incorrect camber o r toe angles cause edges to wear faster.

Weak suspension components
Worn shocks o r bushings push tyres out of alignment.

Incorrect tyre pressure
Overinflation = centre wear underinflation = edge wear.

Bent rims
Distorted rims don’t let the tyre sit evenly.

Rough road usage
Santro’s small tyres and light weight make it sensitive to potholes.

How to Reduce Uneven Tyre Wear

Get wheel alignment every 3–4 months.

Maintain proper tyre pressure usually 30–32 PSI.

Inspect shocks and bushings often.

Rotate tyres every 8,000–10,000 km.

Replace bent rims o r avoid cheap refurbished ones.
