Tyre pressures, not steering too much, not spinning tyres too much. Differential can help a bit too.
Ultimately you will wear one side, or even one corner, more than the rest. Just because of the nature of racetracks.

so does a lower pressure on the more used tire reduce wear or a high pressure?

Lower tire pressure --> higher contact area --> higher temps and more grip --> more wear (someone correct me if I'm wrong)

Other way around. More grip = less wear. Higher pressures will actually increase temps, not the other way around, and less grip means the tire is sliding more which increases wear

I think that was true in the last game, this one I believe its been proven that higher psi got lower temps. I think brendon leigh had a video on that, but forgot if that was before or after the handling update.

Higher PSI does give lower temps in 24. Was working on a setup yesterday and discovered this.

so just run empty tires for best grip and best temperatures? In sims higher pressures keep your tires cooler but offer less grip

Jarno Opmeer solved this mystery on the 24 game, he is the best source to confirm

Solved the mystery or was it "concluded it works the wrong way" In the game?
