Right Rear Tires
My right rear tire worn unevenly and the dealership checked the alignment and told me that there was a bit too much negative camber to this wheel but it's still within specs.
I was then told by the MB technician that this rear right tires is the one used the most and is usually the one to be worn the most. He went on explaining it to me but since I did not believe it, I did not pay attention.
Now, I heard this theory again by another MB technician, an independent source.
Did you eveer hear this?

Sounds like a load of B/S to me.

Chances are you make your left turns a little quicker and harder to get out of the way of oncoming traffic. Most of the force is on your right rear tires. Right hand turns tend to be easier since you're merging with traffic from the curb and would take that turn a little slower than the left.
