Why did you drive it like that? And how did you get it like that?

Not OP, but usually this is the result of people not having money. Tires are absurdly expensive

Can confirm that this was another reason for me not looking into it sooner haha! I was a poor student living on my own for the first time.

I was a dumb kid without a lot of driving experience and car knowledge at that time. Learnt a valuable lesson, luckily nothing worse than a flat tire.

Apparently I had a very misaligned steering-angle which wore the tire out aggressively over time. I remember the steering-wheel shaking heavily at higher speeds before the tire finally gave out.
