Need help/explanation

Can anyone explain to me why me rear passenger side tire is worn? The other three tires still have good tread on them. Thanks in advance.
Someone told me that the rear passenger side tends to have more torque/pull?

Maybe you hit a curb hard and the alignment messed up. Maybe a wheel balance too.

Okay. I know I didn't hit a curb. I think the wheel wasn't balance. Thanks man.

Most probably an alignment issue since a balancing problem would result in vibration more than tire wear. You don't necessarely have to have hit a curb to throw the alignment off, you can may have been miss-aligned from factory.

Thanks. I will go get a lifetime alignment after I buy a new tire.

Two dealerships in town had just informed me that the passenger rear tire tends to wear out more because it's pulling my car harder by the way I drive. The alignment is okay. Does anyone have their rear passenger tire wear out more than the other side? They told me that the right rear pulls harder when you accelerate faster.
