Scary Tire Wear
Just put my winter wheels on and noticed some wicked scary wear on my rears. They are Forgestar F14's with 275/35ZR19 100W Nitto Invo's on them.
I'm a total noob with the wheel stuff, what do I need to do next year when I get new tires? Do I need stiffer springs or something?

First, check for damaged or broken suspension components.
Second, are you on the stock suspension?
Yes: Go have an alignment done
No: Do you have a camber kit?
......Yes: Go have an alignment done
......No: Get one, then have an alignment done

D you guys never do a quick check under your car atleast once every 2 weeks?
You need an alignment ASAP, take it to a reputable shop.

my toe wasn't that bad and I noticed black tire dust all over the back of my car before I got the alignment. Those two are much worse than mine was. Mine was on a white car so maybe that is why I noticed the tire dust/shavings so quickly, but these are two pretty extreme examples with a normal drop. Now, if you are slammed/stanced. Thats just life. Be a little more observant of your car.

All the more reason to check the tires more often....OR, do it right if slammed: wheel and tire combo that can be aligned properly.
This can be very dangerous on the road...it affects other people as well if a blowout occurs on the highway.
