I have an 06 CC and have about 8500 miles on it with the stock CrapYears and I just noticed after this weekend on a trip to Atlanta that the front tires are wearing on the outside (looks like a cup type wear). Has anyone else had any similiar issues? I am going to take it in the morning just thought I would ask your opinion. Does this sound like an alignment issue? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Do you rotate the tires often? Front tires typically do that when they have been on the front too long. An alignment issue at 8500 miles doesn't seem highly likely...unless you have hit a curb or two, or altered the suspension.

I usually rotate them every 6,000 miles or so, except for these which haven't been rotated yet. I was just curious because they are only wearing funny on the outside tread of the tire and on the interstate there is a slight pull to the right constantly so that is what made me think alignment. No curb hitting or potholes or anything of that sort to knock it out of alignment, so not really sure. Guess I will see what the local tire shop has to say?!? Thanks for the input.

I'd say that with 8500 miles with the kind of wear you're describing, yeah. Alignment. On the plus side, you can get them to do the TSB for the cam bolts with this alignment since you're inside of 12k miles. Won't cost you a dime.

And have them rotate those tires while you're there.

What is the TSB?
