Right Front tire degrading quickly.
anyone having the issue of the right front going bad faster then every other tire, its making daytona tough to run, after about 24 laps the right front is gone.

I have not had this issue at Daytona. I'm going to assume this is with a default setup. What pressures are you running? I think default is 30 left side and 50 right side..
At Daytona, there really shouldn't be much tire wear unless you are really coming into the corner hard and trying to diamond the corner. I don't even know if that's possible, but I don't have any reason that you would see that with default setups.

the setting i am currently running is this...

and its only the right front tire, it will be at 20% 25 laps in and every other tire would be at 80%

it was the camber eating my right front. got it down to 67% after 30 laps

Oh my goodness!! Those camber numbers are crazy lol! Yup that will wear out your tires fast. That is NOT a good superspeedway setup.. This game has decent setups if you just go with suggested, and go towards loose.. then tweak what you want.. I do tend to add more camber myself but not that much lol

yeah, i ended up lowering the cambers to 3 on bother tires. it worked

Nice!

Oh my god, what for values i see at the picture. First the Frontweight and the Wedge more down. Try softer springs in the front. Then of course the Tire- Pressure, you should try by around 25-30 each left, 50 up on the right sides, and the camber, spec. the Right Front Tire much less
- Camber, like it's said allready. I found, that the left Tire-Camber can be always a bit higher +, than the right - camber.

ive found 2.5 and -2.5 good on most sets for camber,take into account a track like martinsville eats right front ,its just the way it is on short tracks

Your camber settings and wedge are critical for long runs due to tire wear. I have been monitoring tire life throughout races and it is normal. This aspect of the game works as it should and no change is necessary.

Bear in mind that once we try to go too far in a single setting of setup, it affects long run pace through races inevitably. Hence the existence of divided setups to save for qualifying&race.

great responses! I run only 100% length races and I've seen several Youtube people saying they change the AI tire wear because it seems unfair but you really need to take care of your tires on normal mode

Im having the same problem. I’m enjoying this game but I’m killing my tires. I like doing some races on 100% normal tire/fuel wear. But i only get thru like 30 laps on my RF tire. I know i ride hard in the corners but it seems thats the only way i can pick up speed

The game seems to favor the AI so some have set the AI tire wear to "more effect" OR set the player tire wear to "less effect". I have played with both of these and it's hard to find a balance on 100% races. In my opinion, default AI tire wear on normal seems to give them a big advantage, but when I set AI tire wear to "more effect" it seem exaggerated, where the AI start REALLY slowing down after 20 laps or so.
I think the best choice is to leave AI all on normal and set the player tire wear to "less wear" (I can't remember if that's the exact name). This gives you more laps before your tires really wear out and seems to even things out with the AI.

Thats what i tried. Thank you.

This usually indicated, that you're using driving aids. With driving aids on, it seems to directly affect tire wear on the outside tires (mostly RF) on oval tracks and front tires on road courses. Just disable all driving aids, or turn down the tire wear effect in the options menu.
