Too much camber and the tires aren't aligned right so the tires get worn easily


When you speed does it wear tires down faster?

Yes. Tires get hotter when speed is increased causing more wear. Example- Racing car tires wear out very quickly because of speed combined with high heat. Indy cars and cars used in Nascar may only get a few laps before needing changing. Addition: The effect isn't as drastic on passenger tires but speed does effect wear.

depends on the weight of the toy car and the traction of tire. I guess bigger tires cover more distance than little tires, if two are pushed with the same force, so it'll be faster


Why do car tires howl and shake when driving?

Good question! The car wheels are out of alignment,or warped. or the tires are out of balance. The shocks or struts are worn out. There are other parts in the wheel mounting worn and can't maintain straight forward movements.

If the treads lack definition and/or if the car "pulls" to the left or right.
