Hi!
The both front outside edges of tires wear out faster than the back tires. The front tires vibrate starting at 35 miles but goes away a 55 miles per hour. When driving at 20 miles I can feel a thumping sound in the front. The steering wheel is loose too. Thank you for your opinion!

HI there,

You will need to get the steering & suspension checked for worn components and when this is rectified new tyres and an alignment will be required.
