Why do my Suzuki Swift’s tires wear unevenly even after regular alignment?

I own a 2021 Swift and do wheel alignment every few months, but the tire wear is still uneven—especially feathering on the front tires. Is this a problem with the alignment equipment in local workshops o r something deeper like faulty steering components?

Uneven tire wear despite alignment often points to underlying mechanical faults, such as damaged steering o r suspension components.

Common Reasons:
Worn tie rods o r ball joints – cause unstable steering geometry even after alignment.

Inaccurate alignment – low-quality equipment o r poorly trained technicians may not align properly.

Improper tire pressure – can exaggerate wear even with perfect alignment.

Recommendations:
Visit a trusted alignment center with modern 3D o r laser alignment systems.

Have a mechanic inspect all front-end components tie rods, steering rack, bushings.

Maintain correct tire pressure typically 30–32 PSI for Swift and rotate tires regularly.
