Blackie Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 The car has 19's and tein coilovers. Its proper scrubbing the inside of the tyres, Will getting the tracking done help this or do you think its something more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 I think it's something more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adnanshah247 Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 i had the same issue, the camber and toe was messed, you need a geo done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Dublin Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 i had the same issue, the camber and toe was messed, you need a geo done. Agreed. Also check the wheel liner to see if there's any rubbing occuring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marc_p Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 I guarantee it's your camber, if going through tyres a little quicker doesn't bother you, leave it, I much prefer running with a little negative camber as it sticks better to the road. Is this yours or Karolina's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr veilside Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 I have the same issue with the passenger side rear wheel. Lost a lot of tread on the inside ofthe tyre compared to all the others. I was hoping a geo setup up and wheel allignment would sort it out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveR Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 It will either be camber, or toe. Go and rub your hand across the excessively worn area of the tyre, from one edge to the other (rather than around the circumference). Does it feel smooth or textured? If it's smooth then you're running too much negative camber, it it's rough then you're running too much toe-in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's smooth then you're running too much negative camber, it it's rough then you're running too much toe-in.That sounds like you're saying that his camber and toe can't both be out or tolerance - I don't think that's what you mean though, is it?

Ah no, you're right, it could be both - I didn't think of that possibility! ...But it's the same fix for either/both anyway - get the geo to a decent place and get it sorted. By emphasising "either" I was trying to give an alternative view to marc_p's "I guarantee it's your camber..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr veilside Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Cheers for the info guys. Will definetly have it looked at asap as i want to replace the tyres soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jellybean Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Sounds like camber but since you have coilovers I would also get the corner weights done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
