Hi guys, 

 

Quick question, my FG Mkii has 132k on it and I'm about to replace the springs and shocks. 

However the left front tyre, relatively new (10,000k) is rooted, really excessive inner wear but the wear isn't uniform around the complete circumference of the tyre. 

Anyone have any ideas on this? I am getting a Pedders suspension check done tomorrow. 

 

Thanks Dennis

If you have an Achilles ATR sport 2, then it is the tire.

If that is not the tire you have then an alignment is required every 6 months mate.

I had bad issues with my tires doing that and it was the ATR sport 2.

Then I had other tires on and had similar problems but not as bad.

 

all of this got sorted out when I got a camber kit installed with the shockworxs suspension.

I swear you bought shares in that company :P.

 

I will vouch for the camber kit though. solved all my scrubbing issues. I use to get an alignment every couple of months, still scrubbed until I had the camber kit installed

why else would I advertise it sooo much?

Hahahaha, I wish I had shares that made me money and not lose it all.

 

 

PS: It could also be his ATR sports tires too. :P

Car isn't lowered, no potholes recently hit and an alignment done by Tyre franchise who did it to ford special apparently.

This is the second tyre to do this.

I'll assume that wasn't directed at me.

No not atr's, first tyre was a fallen and this tyre is a hankook.

I'll post a picture of the wear tomorrow morning.
