"4 wheel laser aligned" 6 months ago, following TRE change



Tread depth is 4.5mm all over, just shoulder wear.

And not clear from photo, but is visible, it has gone through the steel wire reinforcements.

Wheels aligned by whom ?

Cock... another pair of tyres done

Wheels aligned by whom ? 

Usual sort of place in most towns, that offer tracking or super doper 4 wheel alignment.

Obviously, I'm not talking about the sort of places that do proper geometry checks, such as WIM, which is what the Omega needs.

On the upside, they were GY F1 Assym2's.  So no tears shed over them .  Pieces of junk.

Nothing wrong with that tyre, just that most of it has been used to resurface TB's local BP Garage Forecourt.

Its off TBE. I don't get to drive it.  She does. Up the motorway. At speed.

So a lucky catch really

But you knew that before you had it tracked

My brother's Corsa does this. And no matter what I/a garage does, we can't get it to stay aligned. I started wondering this morning if the inner wings have folded a little (an 06 plate car that's never had an accident shouldn't though, I think)

 I think it might be time to say bye to that car

I have heard good reports about The tyre shop at Witham, so going to give them a try in the next couple of weeks. Will report back with findings.

Please do... Assuming I decide to swap everything over onto the other one I'll need geo doing and I'm still working out where to go.

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

Will ask them to set it up to WIM settings, and then post up the results on here for expert opinion. Would be very handy for us far eastern OOFers if it is as good as Ive heard it is. 
Hoping to make time in the next week or two, so will let you know.

I'm sure Johnny used a place in Colchester... Settyres possibly

I'm surprised a set of tyres got to 6 months on your cars
