tyre wear
Hi all,
Does anyone know why my front right tyre is wearing on both the inner and outer edge ? The tracking is correct, tyre pressures also (unless a diesel auto needs more ?) I have HANKOOK tyres on the front, the old continentals suffered the same problem. No play in the steering or suspension. Thanks Pete. |

Normally a sign of under inflation, what psi are you using?

That's actually a bit high , I think . Haynes says 2.2 or 2.3 for the auto (32 / 33 psi ).
So , not under-inflation anyway

I agree! The wheel angle on our cars is quite a lot on full lock.
Some cars are more than others. Look at a citroen 2cv on full lock!
