We investigate the relation between tripartite entanglement of the three-qubit system and the maximum steering inequality violation of the reduced two-qubit states. Firstly, it is found that a single parameter family of entangled three-qubit pure states have the maximum steering inequality violation among all of the three-qubit pure states for a fixed amount of tripartite entanglement. The tripartite entanglement is quantified by the genuinely multipartite concurrence, generalized geometric measure, and tangle. Subsequently, the complementary relation between tripartite entanglement and the maximum steering inequality violation for an arbitrary three-qubit pure state can be established. Particularly, the result also holds for three-qubit mixed states if the entanglement measure is tangle. The complementary relations indicate that the maximum steering inequality violation of the reduced two-qubit system is at the expense of tripartite entanglement.
