I just put 2 new tires on the front of car about 2 weeks ago and now they are already bald around the edges. I cant seem to figure out why the tires keep going bald? I believe my car needs new wheel bearings and I was also told a control arm as well, But someone else said it could be just the bushings in the control arm, how can I tell if its just the bushings? When I go over bumps it sounds like a popping sound, Im not sure what is going on? I think I need a lot of front end work done to my car. Could u maybe give me a few pointers on what it might be? Also when I turn on the AC/ Heat or any of those controls a fuse blows that makes the gauges stop working and the head lights go out, what could be causing that?

Tire wear is caused by an alignment problem. That can be due to adjustments that aren't correct or worn parts that aren't holding a wheel in its proper position. The place to start is by having the steering and suspension systems inspected at a tire and alignment shop. They will determine which parts are worn.
