Tire Wear

My car has been chirping in third, and execessively misbehaving in the wet so I check the tires. The left tires are very worn out and the right tires have a lot of tread on them. The alignment seems to be good, and so is my tire pressure. 22 990 miles on my car. I have done one rotation on my tires. How often should I be rotating and is this normal, My left front is almost bald.

Every 6,000 miles. They should be rotated and balanced. Just Tires has a tire lifetime plan to balance and rotate for $60.

I'd say spend the $40 bucks to get your alignment checked. Everything may seem okay visually, but your toe is probably off.

Or maybe 90% of your driving is making right-hand turns. I dunno.
