Is it true that low tire pressure causes uneven tire wear?
Yes. A Popular Mechanics encyclopedia entry states that both underinflation and overinflation can cause uneven tire wear, with underinflation putting excess pressure on the tread sides. A Stack Exchange answer and an automotive guide also link improper or low tire pressure to uneven or premature wear.
