The Impact of Shock Absorbers on Tyre Wear

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Shocks

Video tutorial

In this video, you will see that it is not always the tyres that are to blame for noise or abnormal wear. It is true that incorrect pressure, the type of compound, or tread pattern can heavily influence these two variables, but we must also consider another factor regarding tyre wear, which is the suspension system of our car. A simple comparative test can be seen between a worn original shock absorber, a well-known brand like Monroe, and a high-performance one like Bilstein.

Imagine it on your vehicle, and you will see how much it can impact tyre wear, and consequently noise and fuel consumption.
