Heavy truck tyres wear patterns often reveal more than routine mileage. Uneven shoulder wear usually points to under-inflation, while centre wear suggests over-inflation.

Why lorries and trucks carrying heavy loads have 8 tyres instead of four and the tyres are broader?

Lorries and trucks carry heavy loads, and having eight tyres instead of four helps distribute the weight more evenly across the vehicle. This reduces the pressure on each tyre, minimizing the risk of blowouts and improving stability. Broader tyres also provide better traction and grip on the road, which is essential for safely maneuvering heavy loads. Additionally, the increased surface area helps prevent excessive wear and enhances durability under demanding conditions.

Firstly check that the tyres don't have uneven wear - the front tyres might be worn more than the inside than the outside or vice versa, if they are rotate with the rear tyres, provided they have even wear. Then check your wheel balance, this has to be done in a garage. Hope fully these steps should fix the problem.

Why are your front tires always low on air?

Front tyres wear faster on FWDs and with understeer, more worn tires will be more permeable to air. In fact unless you like doing heaps of fishys, doughys and burnouts, your tyres will wear faster than the front in any well balanced car.
