Hi the front tyres on our car have worn on the INSIDE edge. what could the reason's for this be?

I know the outside edge is the tracking but the inside edge????
The car is a hyundia Trajet front wheel drive.

You can have two types of tracking problems. Toe in and toe out.

Too much toe in and the outer edge will wear.
Too much toe out and the inner edge will wear.

And then of course you could have a camber problem instead or as well as.

In short, you need to have your steering geometry checked.

Hi there Pash...Outside tyre wear indicates the wheels are too far Toe-in....Inside tyre wear indicates the wheels are too far toe-out.Get your tracking re-adjusted.
