Default Front right wheel drive?

When I took my rims off the other day I noticed that my front right tire is almost completely bald and all the rest of them are like 90% tread left. It is not camber wear or anything, just normal/even wear on the tire. Is this because i need an LSD or is this normal or what? I have a 2002 honda civic turbo.

do you drive it hard? yes, it could be the need for an lsd. how much power are you putting down?

without an lsd your front right WILL spin more than your left since it uses a shorter axle. but bald compared to 90% tread left? that's pretty extreme. how even is the wear on it? can you shoot up any pics?

Either that or stop doing peg-leg burn outs.
