Tyre Wear
right i had a blow out today, my front tyres.
The wear on them is the inside half of the tyres totally gone and the outside still tread.
Just wandering if the tracking will sort this or is the wear pattern the camber?
If so whats peoples opinions on the camber bolts and i know there isnt any adjustment on the nova
Camber as yours is lowerd too much. Camber bolts will prob do it. Oh and have you had the tracking done since lowering?
Do both.
ive not had the tracking done yet
im going to get some tyres fitted and tracking done before the weekend hopefully.
Then buy some camber bolts then get the tracking done again.
No where can 4 wheel alighn the car as its to low
Tracking will be miles out due to the lowering.
yea i know that as it likes to steer its self.
Christ camber bolts 20 for 2 bolts
self steering (unless you are on about tramlining on major roads) is mostly down to toe (tracking).
Find an old skool place with the dunlop mirror setup
the wear will be a mix of toe and camber
yea id get the tracking done first and see how it goes then look at adjusting the camber
Just tracking it will not stop wear from happening on the insade edge of the tyre. I had 4 wheel allignment done after I got it lowered and new track rod ends put on. The outer half of my tyre is worn about 25% the inside about 60% coz I didnt fit camber adjustment bolts (lowered 30mm-35mm).
So do both and it will be much better. 2 for £20 is cheap tbh what brand are they? any links? Cheapest I have see are £37 - £40 for H&R / Eibach ones. Chamber bolts normally adjust upto +/- 3 degrees IIRC (the ones I have come across)
nova tek there from lmf and are on ebay
they adjust 1.75 deg going to have to have a look at hh ms and get the 3 deg ones
well the tracking is being done at 3. They cant 4 wheel align it cause its to low at the back with 15's on as the top of the alloy are tucked up in the arch.
Heres the link to the LMF ones CLICKY. Members get discount iirc
