Could a loose wheel bearing cause this? Seem a little loose when i was checking it.
Definitely can. Inspect the bearings carefully to make sure they're all okay. Might be wise to replace them all. Use good ones like Timken if you do.
Not sure if I have seen that type of localized wear from a bearing. Typically it has been toe or camber that creates that type of wear. But I suppose the bearing could be so bad it is changing the alignment. I would think a bearing that loose would have destroyed itself by now.
The reason I say that is I've seen it twice so far.
I *think* maybe it's because the tire keeps moving left right as it's spinning down the highways at higher speeds? Maybe also the wheel camber and running at max. sidewall pressure are factors??
