Hi, I took the car to wheel alignment and it does not take long that the alignment is not balanced. This result to wheels getting damaged quickly. I think the car was once involved in accident as I bought it from someone. Any thoughts and advice?

Hi and thanks for using 2CarPros.com.

Uneven tire wear is not always the result of alignment. Other things, such as driving technique, suspension, bushings, tire design, air pressure, worn steering components can lead to a tire wear problem. Is it possible for you to upload a picture of the tire so I can see how it is wearing?

Here is a link that discusses tire wear problems. Take a look through it and let me know if it is helpful.
