Like I said, my 02 wagon did the same thing. The 09 does it, as well as another guy I work with on his 09.......

Took the snow tires off, to put back the summer tires. Replaced the 2 rear tires with cupping. I had the alignment checked, it was still perfect on the rear end. Apparently this problem is common on a Focus and Escape on the rear tires. One suggestion was to leave some weight in the back of the vehicle all the time. It appears the back end is bouncing up and down due to a lack of weight. Two 40lb bags of salt in each the rear corners of the trunk.....

Anybody had any positive resolution to the cupping produced on the rear tires of a Focus, primarily on the right rear??? I have 2 Focus cars, an 09 and 11. The 09 now has 60k on it. Cupping stated at 50k. My 02 had the same problem. Trying to repair it was a lost cause. Rotating the tires just made all of the tires bad I have paid for shocks, new tires, rear alignment, more new tires, more shocks, and more new tires. Average tires life is 30k on rear. Seach online shows others with the same problem. Any fix???
