Tyre wear question
 
Last year I had the laser alignment on my MY02 wagon done at Scoobyclinic and all was fine, seemed to improve the car quite a bit. Now the time has come to swap the two front tyres for some fresh GSD3s and I've noticed that the nearside tyre seems to have worn quite a bit more than the offside.
I was wondering whether or not this was down to me throwing the car round roundabouts with gay abandon - obviously the nearside will take the most hammer - or maybe the alignment needs doing again - any ideas ?
The car is going into Scoobyclinic soon for some new brake discs fitting so I figured if the alignment needed doing I could get it done at the same time.

Mine are coming up for replacement soon too and the front nearside tyre nearside edge is the most worn.
I do have a couple of tasty roundabouts on the way home from work that might have something to do with it though :D

n/s/f on mine is always thrashed on the outer edge. It's the roundabouts that do it, definitely, although since fitting loads of Whiteline gear to get the rear end into play, front end tyre wear has been a lot better.
