Front Tyres Wear Too Quick?

Hey all, was just wondering if it's just me or if it's other people experiencing this problem...

Today I checked my front tyres and well, they seemed significantly worn out compared to my parents Lancer (I know you probably think I'm hooning it...) but I ask my mate's dad who works at Toyota, he said it's frequent for the latest model corolla's as it's more heavier, and well more strain on the front...

I just wanted to know if what he said was true, or is it because I probably drive A BIT reckless? (Trust me, my reckless driving is like... once every month, only when I have one mate or if I'm in a hurry, I STILL WANT TO KEEP MY LICENCE)

Cars about 1Year & 1Month old.

don't forget since its a front wheel drive, your front wheels have power transferred from the tyres to the road, turning left and right, and suspension going up and down. of course it will wear quicker than the rear, rear tyres are only turning with the exception of going up and down...

wearing evenly or irregular, such as wearing on the inner or outer edge of the tread?

Well, the wearing seems to be more worse on the Front Left.

And how come my parents Lancer, the wear seems completely not there? Like, the tyre seems still brand new?

Get a wheel alignment, incorrect toe settings can sometimes create accelerated and uneven wear especially on the driving wheels.

      Canning Prado or 200

      Hi All Just joined - trying to decide between a Prado or 200 for the CSR next year. l'll be a single in the car in a group of 5 vehicles. Not owing. I appreciate whatever I get will need some mods. And I know I am on the Prado Club forum but I am hoping for some unbiased opinion! The Prado needs to carry less fuel which is a big advantage but what I am more concerned about is whether it is rugged enough. Any thoughts and especially experience, much appreciated! Regards to all. Chris

      2002 Door Handle Issue

      Unusual problem. Driver's side external door handle would not function with window in fully closed position. Would function with window open around 12mm. Removed door trim - visual inspection showed plastic clip at top of one of the actuating rods had become unclipped and was being hit by the metal rail on the bottom of the window glass when the window neared fully closed. Easiest solution was to apply Loctite Extreme Glue to clip and re-attach it to the rod. Fingers crossed it stays attached.

      2ZR Turbo

      How did this project finish up mate , any issues creep up? Im thinking of the same upgrades, but, I have a question around the registration. Here in NSW you cant turbo without it being offered as an original option. Did ypu get an engineer sigh off?

      Hi everyone, new member here. We have two Toyotas, a 2016 Corolla 2ZR-FE and a 2016 Yaris NCP130R. My dad was a huge Holden fan...I've broken that tradition and have become a huge Toyota fan myself! I do a lot of my own maintenance and repairs on our Toyotas where possible so look forward to sharing knowledge and learning even more from the community. Cheers.

      Camry 2007 Electrical Question

      Hi all, New member here. Got couple of issue with a 2007 Camry Altise. The clock/Speed alert screen doesn't work on the dash. It turn on/off periodically. Sometimes it will never turn on, sometimes it turns on for few hours. Does anyone know what could be the issue? Second issue is the horn is not working, checked the plugs they're all good. The screen wheel buttons work except horn. Pressing the find the car button the remote makes the horn go off. But I couldn't get the alarm go off (locked the car and opened the door from window). Any ideas where else I could look? Thanks in advance.
