Tire Wear Question

[Anthony]

I was wondering if I could get some opinions about my tire wear. Both of my driver's side tires are worn unevenly - the wear is heaviest on the left side of the tire. I bought the tires new a couple of years ago (Michelin Energy) and had a 4 wheel alignment done at the same time. Note that I drive on the freeway about 90% of the time and almost always in the leftmost lane. Given that this lane is typically sloped to the left for water drainage, you need to hold the wheel slightly to the right so that you drive straight. As such, do you think that the tire wear is related to the fact that I drive in the leftmost lane or do I simply need an alignment? Note that I always check my tire pressure and the passenger's side tires are worn evenly. Given the tire wear, the car does pull to the left now a bit even on flat surfaces so I would need to replace the tires to figure out if this is actually an alignment problem.

Thanks for all of your help in advance!

Don't forget to have your car's tires balanced and rotated every 3000-3500 miles as well.

Have the car's tire alignment checked again.
