03 4X4 front tire wear/noise
Hi everyone,
My 03 has had uneven tire wear since 1200 miles. The tires "cup" which makes a vibration and "off road" tire sound above 35 mph. The car is aligned, and now I am trying new tires.....Does anyone have any ideas or have the same problem??

Grandone69,
I have a 2003 Expy and I have the same problem with my tires. I didn't start to notice it until I had them rotated last time. I have 40K on the original Cont tires. Still good tread left. My tire shop said the Expy's are known for this and the key is rotation of the tires at 5K. I had let mine go for longer.
