Thats exactly how my offside front tyre looked when I changed the wishbones, shocks, & droplinks a couple of weeks ago.
The nearside one wasn't much better, but that wasn't down to the reinforcement cording.

I've thrown a couple of part worns on for the meantime, but it's off to WIM in the next couple of weeks for new rubber and a full geometry set up.

Just as a footnote to the tyre wear problem I had....

Took both Omegas in for full geometry check today. Problem with the tyres was caused by the camber on the front right being out by 1 degree at -2,12'. Worryingly though this was still within manufacturers specifications of between -2,25' to -0,55'.

Shocks, wishbones, etc. all checked and were fine  :y

Noticed this morning on my check that the NSR is a bit low on the inner edge... It'll live a bit longer but still a shame as the rest is good!

Can't really complain though as it came from the front after I had the WIM treatment and was quite well worn then!

I've worn the pair quite quickly after swapping them but TBH I think it's just because I drive it quite hard :-[ :-[
