How to solve problem of 20 inch tires wearing out quickly...
Ok, so I put 20 inch rims on my G. The outside tread has worn more quickly than the rest of the tread (specifically on the front tires). The dealer said it was due to my tire being wider than stock. 245/35/20 is my tire size.
My question is, what size r20 tire should I get to help with the premature wear on my tread? Or is this just part of the territory with an aftermarket type size?
I have a G37S, came with 19s from factory.

There is no stopping outside shoulder wear if you drive con brio. You can reduce the wear with more negative camber. Unfortunately, the stock front suspension is not adjustable for camber (or caster). You have to buy and install adjustable upper control arms. That was my first mod. I run -2 degrees with almost zero toe-in.

Be sure to get an alignment done if you've done anything that would change your alignment like jacking your wheel on a pothole, curbing, etc or if you aren't the original owner. Never hurts just to get it done to make sure all is well under there

There are hundreds of links you can click on in that one link alone. It is not just random info. Camber does cause wear. I've seen it first hand on my own car.
And you FACTS edit completely disproves you.
