Excessive tire wear
#1
![Question](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
I have W205 coupe with aftermarket r19 wheels, 8.5 et43 (front) and 9.5 et43 (rear) paired with 235/40 and 265/35 Hankook Ventus S1 Evo2 tires.
Two consecutive years I have had to replace rear tires with new ones as they wear out in about 4 months having driven about 6000 km (this has happened for 2 summers now).
Front tires have lasted twice as long, that is 2 summers and about 12000 km.
The alignment is ok and tires have been worn out perfectly even. The car is used for every day commute in city and no hard driving habits are used.
None of the car services is able to figure out what is wrong, but all agree that such wear of tires is not normal.
Maybe something is wrong with my rims/tires setup? BTW original Mercedes r19 setup is 7.5 et44 and 8.5 et52 (paired with 225/45 and 255/35 tires).
Anyone has any ideas?
