2018 Mitsubishi Outlander — inside shoulder worn out while outside looks fine

CommuterNomad729Community StarterOct 30, 20252018 Mitsubishi Outlander SENashville
The tires looked okay until I checked the inner shoulder, which is much more worn. The car is slightly lowered. What alignment measurements matter most if I want to stop eating tires?

If it were mine, I would verify the cheap/easy branch on the 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander before committing to a big repair.

I would not stop there. write down what you already tested so the next step is not a repeat.

One thing that mattered for me: in Nashville, I care more about the thing I will notice every day than the spec-sheet extra.

Fair, but in Nashville, I care more about the thing I will notice every day than the spec-sheet extra.
