My original Bridgestones also wore heavily in the inner edge. It was really badly concentrated to the first 1" and effectively down the sidewall.

With no changes in geometry the Pirelli runflats wore perfectly through their life. The Goodyears on now are fine too.

It doesn't always appear to be down to tyre pressures either.

The thing with an open differential, it will always spin up the inside wheel. The inside wheel will always be digging in on the inner edge.

Not sure if the fact that tyres with more grip don't wear as badly on the inside edge is the reason. Maybe they have more grip and not spinning up as often.

Anyone with a LSD suffer with uneven tyre wear?
