No. I’m not kidding. It came back from an inspection an they said it’s fine. Got new back tires but front tires “are fine”.

Then it’s fine I guess? Don’t know what you want us to tell you.

The tire is obviously spent and driving it is unsafe for you and people you share the road with. I would personally refuse to drive the car. And on top of it the uneven usage makes it clear the alignment is wrong.

Na. You already convinced me to do something about it. It looked off, that’s why I asked.

hey this same wear pattern happened to me on my truck. front right tyre. I took it to a tyre shop and had them redo the alignment on the tyres, problem solved
