By inside of the tire do you mean inside of tread? If so this is an alignment problem, either toe-in or camber; if you mean sidewall- the tires are rubbing on suspension or fender well and need to be a smaller size or off-set of wheels needs to be corrected ( I don't recomend wheel spacers)... get back to me if this doesn't help you...

My 2007 santa fe has had two wheel alignments, and I have replace all four tires twice. It's now on third set of tires and still all tires are wearing on the inside. Rotating the tires will change...

56,000 miles and 2 sets of tires. I would question the alignment process. Yes there could be some thing wrong with the vehicle, ie ball joints, control arm bushings, even a bent or out of aligned frame. But the alignment shop should have caught this. I align most vehicles, including front and four wheel drive by sight and driving them. Never had any one complain. I don't use sophisticated alignment racks, do it by the book and a tape measure. Also I haven't heard of any problems with your vehicle about alignments. I would try another shop. Keeping 4 wheels straight with each other is not that big of deal. Especially with newer vehicles. Old I beam suspensions are tough.

I bought 4 tires at the same time, just had them rotated and was told that the front tires have more traction on them now than the back and that they shouldn't of rotated them. On a 2001 Chevy Cavalier...

You want the tires with deeper tread on the front of the car. As you drive, being front wheel drive the front tires do all the work, the rears are just along for the ride so the drive tires will wear down twice as fast. About ever 6000 - 8000 miles, you will need to rotate the tires to keep all 4 wearing evenly

Steering wheel pulls when turning on a curve and my tires are wearing down because of this

check the air pressure and make sure all tires have the same psi in them. If they do, take it in for a front end alignment or a 4 wheel alignment.

Tires wearing out on outer edge constantly, what is it?

Tires need balanced or you need an alignment. Make sure tires are inflated to max cold psi

My front tires are showing wear, and they toe out when in reverse

Be sure to have tires rotated every 5000-6000-miles. Walmart is good for that.
Outside wear is normal for fronts from the turns at higher speeds.
When tierod ends were replaced it is advisable to get front end aligned. Its not impossible to replace with minimum change but if settings were done with worn parts, new parts will change it.

Alignment in 2007 Acura TL

It depends on what kind of uneven wear you are talking about if the front is wearing on the inside or outside on one side or both yes you need an alignment but if front tires are are worn about the same on the inside and outside of the tire that is not uncommon it is better to rotate the tires about every 5,000-7,000 and keep the air close to maximum as they will get you better gas mileage and wear better example if the tire says a maximum of 44psi put about 38-40psi when tires are cold and havent been ran.If those are the original tires and you have 49,000 on your car then you don't need an alignment.

Tires wearing inside on 2008 Impala LT

this is a wheel camber (in and out tilt of wheel and tire) problem, u may have to have a Camber adjustment kit put in, most new cars have no adjustment provided for this. the bottom line here is you need to see a really good front end shop to get this taken care of, also the tires will continue to wear this way even if problem is corrected, so may want to replace them or rotate them.

At 1500 miles the front end was in need of alignment and the outside edge of the front tires were wearing down excessively.We took to the dealer and they aligned it When I went to rotate the tires at 5500...

once a were pattern is worn in tire s unless you rotate tires to the rear they will keep wearing you should rotate your tires every oil change especially if you do alot of around town driving i am willing to bet you that good year lied to you about the alignment i am sure the dealer put it into spec the first time you just need to rotate them a little more often
