« on: 29 October 2011, 19:16:41 »
Checked tyres today,fronts are starting to scuff out on the insides,plenty of tread across the rest of tyre,they have done 25k,is that good/normal? is it tracking or camber causing it? ::)

Camber. Not a great deal wrong if they've done 25k. Although worth checking set up. Might be a fraction too aggressive.

Camber

(Almost) every garage in the country is able to set the toe correctly so the toe is probably there or thereabouts.

Only WIM seem to realise how important correct camber is :(

Wheels on motion. See web site. Either visit them in Chesham for £60(?) with the Oof discount.
Or see the map for one of their franchises near you at the full price.

Obviously try and get it sorted before fitting new tyres.
