I CURRENTLY HAVE A 99 TURBO WHICH IS MY SECOND CLASSIC, AND I KEEP GETTING BOLD TYRES ON THE REAR ON THE OUTER EDGE IS THIS NORMAL OR AM I JUST TO HEAVY OUT THE CORNERS CUS SOMETIMES WHEN I'M IN THE MOOD I LIKE A PLAY AS YOU DO AND SHE DOES STEP OUT ON FULL THROTTLE ALSO WHEN I GOT THE CAR THE TYRES SQUEELED WHEN I WENT ROUND ALL ROUNDABOUTS, SO PUT PERELLI'S ON AND THAT CURED THE PROBLEM BUT STILL GETTING BOLD EDGES

DOES ANYONE SUFFER WITH THIS PROBLEM ?

THIS HAPPENED ON MY FIRST 96 UK TURBO ASWELL


THANKS FOR ANY INFO

 

I GUESS NOT THEN !!!!!!

 

Wheel alignment would be your first step mate, No matter what tyres are on the vehicle they shouldn't squeel going round roundabouts sensibly, it sounds as if the tyre isn't in full contact with the road surface, try alignment first. PS I have a set of 17 sti rims with very good RE070 tyres that would fit and drive a treat on yr classic.

yes got the same problem on my blobeye.

Very annoying, tyres are nearly bald on the out side edge , middle of tyres are alright.

ps. ditch the caps lock!

 

Impatient and shouting isn't going to help you.

Get the allignment checked.

 

Could be too low tyre pressures?

Do you hoon round roundabouts alot? Is the N/S/F outer edge more worn than the others? If so, then it's YOU and your driving lol!.

Otherwise it could be that you're running not enough negative - or even into positive! - camber...

 

sorry gents i wasnt shouting had caps on lol . no front tyres are fine just the rears. i thought no body was taking to me sorry again.

thanks for info

 

My money will be on a bent rear hub, they are very weak from my experience.

 

thanks for that i just thought when i had my first mot about two years ago i had to replace the two offside wheels as they were bent i bet you will be right on that mate thanks,not to sure what last owner did as it was one lady owner but must of spun off somewhere, but you couldnt tell when driving it, they were bent from inside to outside just a little but you could just see it. how come they havent picked it up on an mot. thanks

 

Careful.
