Well we replace tires every 2-3 years whereas in a modern car you can go 150k+ miles without need to replace the pump.

Offer stands $10 for 20 minutes of sawing delivered via paypal upon receipt of video evidence.

There are lots of reasons not to saw on the wheel while stopped whenever you have extraneous force the ablative components will wear.

Well the forces didn’t disappear they are just less felt because of our more modern “floaty and numb” high boosted steering.

You should only park with the wheels straight on relatively flat ground. On hills you should point your wheels so that if your car rolls it rests against the curb and does not enter the lane of traffic. Also if you can’t rock in your spot (even a few inches of movement going lock to lock lowers the stress on tires and…

Look there are many reasons you shouldn’t do it, but in today’s age of highly boosted low steering feel its very easy to not realize you are wearing multiple parts of the system just turning back and forth.

Cause if you do it on someone else’s property and leave two very conspicuous rubber marks I would feel kinda bad.
As to “Proving something I already know” I don’t think you know the exact outcome. You know some of it, that you will mark it up and it might wear your tread. As for a flat spot you think it won’t happen…

That’s my point, its not zero wear and it can happen. Its more a case of a small problem who people have solved by making bigger problems.

That’s a good approach that keeps people from running over curbs. Its just something to be mindful of, other commentators have pointed out that power steering pumps get some wear from doing this.

Well it all depends on mileage and usage. It definitely adds wear to both systems but people are more likely to replace tires than they are power steering pumps.

Another good reason, it does load the system more than so it adds wear.

400 treadwear will leave visible marking on concrete or asphalt at anything above 88, especially after driving.

That’s literally what I said:

I’ll make you the same offer the other mouthbreather who used the term “factually” in their response.

That’s a horse of a different color.

I will paypal you $10 to send me a 20 minute video (no looping) of you sawing your wheel back and forth in the same patch of asphalt or concrete that you own.

Its like you read half my response started your comment and never came back for the other half.

Um that tire thing is actually factually accurate but causes a more unsafe behavior (aka rolling when you shouldn’t for example in a parallel parking situation).

I live in the Northeast and donate to https://jatwork.org/ because even in “Coastal Elite Ground Zero” there are lots of dirtbags who like to hold paychecks or threaten to call ICE if their workers dare to ask for basic human rights.

Exactly! This isn’t about transmissions this is about guns. And we all know batman has (contrary to what people claim) loves guns.
