I had new rears put on 6 months ago on my MY98 and since then the NS front AND back have completely bald outer edges, but the OS front and rear tyres do not have this at all. Do you get this from going around roundabouts sideways or is there likely to be another cause. Also intersetd in knowing how the police determine that you have bald tyres (as its only the outer vertical edge and 20mm of the horizontal outer edge which has no tread. Rest of tyre surface is great!!

PS: I do live in Milton Keynes (roundabout land).

Thanks,

MKC

Thumbs up

MKC,

You need your geometry set up properly (no, I don't mean tracking).

If you live in Milton Keynes the nearest place for you to get to is Autolign in Northampton. They will sort you out.

This is a worthwhile investment, do it now and take it as an Xmas present to yourself.
