Tire wear

Send the pics to the manufacturer and ask for their comments.

Good idea. Also, have you always been at -3.5 on the street? (I know it's not a DD). What brand/TW rating was the previous set? Perhaps this softer compound is just less forgiving of it?

Extra wear on drivers side due to wookie sized driver?

It has always been at -3.5 to -3.8 with zero toe.

Previous set was Hankook Evo or something. This started about a year ago. I had the same wear with the older tires so I replaced everything in front.

Car is corner balanced for Wookie driver. Alignment is all jacked up when I get out of it. Actually it does not change that much with the stiff springs.

I am at a lost. The only thing left to consider is that the lower ride height has changed the suspension geometry to point that it is now causing this.

Other item is that all my other wheels are 18x10 et25. With this set of wheels front is 18x9.5 et29.

Did you replace the "eyeball" lower control arm bushings? If so did you use OEM or stiffer aftermarket ones? I know that the OEM ones will allow the rear of the control arms to move around quite a bit under load.

It's just trying to tell you that you've owned it too long....

Eyeballs replaced with PowerFlex.


But I still like this one and don't want it to go yet.

I guess you could always increase the ride height and see what happens.

Probably jacked up geometry since its been lowered....sounds like the other variables are covered.
