I don't know much about suspension and alignment, but how much extra wear should there be on the inside of a set of tires on one of these cars? I ask because on the outside and middle of my tires I have about 50% tread left, and about 0% on the inside. These are Dunlop Direzza Z1's, and I've driven the car pretty aggressively in the mountains on a number of road trips, but I can't imagine this would be the result.

Is it normal or is my alignment off?

How much degree of camber do you have is the car lowered

The car is all stock, that's all I know

When was the last time you got an alignment

The car has 45k miles on it now, I bought it a year and a half ago at 37k miles with the same tires. Since that time I haven't had an alignment done, and I imagine the previous owner wouldn't have either if he didn't notice anything odd.

I would start by checking your alignment

Right, that's why I am posting. I am trying to figure out if that kind of wear is normal or not before I pay for an alignment. I'd rather not pay for it if it's normal for an s2000, or for an s2000 that's been driven aggressively.

I mean If the car is driven very aggressively then yes the inside will wear faster than the outside but not as much as what your having where you still have 50% then 0% that's not normal unless you have lots of camber or toe aggressively should be close to 50% on the outside and like 35% on the inside

Thanks, that's exactly what I needed to know!
