Popped into a local tyre/MOT centre today for an oil and filter change, and they mentioned the tyre wear I have on the front wheels. I had noticed it earlier, with it wearing on the inside edge and intended to get the tracking checked.

However, the garage said the tracking was probably fine, and the cause would be the lowered suspension. I'm not sure how far it was lowered, but noticed red springs when I bought it in Feb. It's not radically lowered. They said the geometry change would be the cause, and the only solution would be to revert to standard springs.

The rear tyres look okay, although one side has very slight inside edge wear.

I like the car as it is, but are they telling porkies, or does lowering a car create uneven tyre wear? Has anyone else lowered their car and had this problem?

it does but its not really that bad.

you can if you really want to, buy a set of adjustment bolts and correct the front camber.

the rears cannot be corrected though.

the negative camber lower creates will improve the cornering of the car but as you've just found out it creates uneaven tyre wear

Ry

Probably still worth getting your tracking checked though, if it is out it will be making the tyre wear worse.

How and where do these adjustment bolts fit?

Think I will get the tracking done too!

Is it the Bravo in your forum garage? Doesnt look that low

I measured from the ground to the highest part of the
wheel arch, and it's 600mm.

What is the standard ride height?
