Question

Both my front tyres are much more heavily worn on the left shoulder (as viewed from the back of the car). Is this just a natural result of enthusiasm on roundabouts or something more worrying? I drive equally as enthusiastically on left turns too and I don't live in Milton Keynes!

Any ideas?

Cheers,

Steve

LOL @ Alas

I'll get the tracking checked, I just thought that bad tracking lead to both outer or both inner shoulders wearing - I can't quite see how it would lead to the outer on one and the inner on the other without leading to the car pulling to one side all the time (which it doesn't)

Cheers,

Steve
