Thumbs up Speaking of Allignment

hey guys,

Saw the post about allignment and rembered looking at my tires over the weekend.

The inside edge of both of my front S02s are worn pretty bad right down to the indictor bars and on one even past it, the rest of the tire has about 20% tread left. I saw the uneven tire wear last year before FC and had the front end alligned.

I'm not sure if my allignment is out again or if the wear is a result of the initial allignment problem before FC.

Any thoughts of what would cause this type of wear on the insides of the fronts?

Thanks!!

Andy

its not unusual ... alignment for best driving does not equate with alignment for even tire wear.

Otherwise put ... if you want your car to grip the road ... the tires suffer because the alignment is set for an aggressive grip .
