part of me says sod it - just buy some new ones

the other part of me say's I've used 50% of the tread at most why should I take it that driving in a straight line at a constant will have knackered my tyres.

granted thats what I do on the motorway but thats clearly not what I do ALL the time Confused

Tbh I think you have no chance when it comes to tyres. You'll just have to suck it up.

Rolling with laughter

knowing my luck even the back ones need the tracking adjusting.


turns out the tyres have 'saw tooth'......if I could do the link thing I would. there's another topic somewhere about tracking.


turns out the saw tooth effect which I believe is giving the vibration is due to me driving at a constant speed in a straight or due to me driving in a 'moderate' fashion.

I kid you not.... Rolling with laughter ..... really really really.
