Wheel Alignment

Post by daca.robinson » Sun Dec 22, 2002 8:38 pm

Hi.
I have discovered that the tyre's on the rear have the inside edges are badly
worn, not through to the steel webbing, but bad enough, is this a simple wheel
alignment or something more sinister.The rims are 15 inch with +35 offset?? on
Bridgestone RE710???
not to sure if the last two bits of info are necessary. I guess my question
is: a easy fix or not. ( where is the best place in CH-CH to Get it checked
out.).
can anyone advise.
cheers.
Daca Robinson.

Daca -

is your car lowered? A lowered car will have more
negative camber (sounds like you need less), wearing
the insides of the tyres out. Sounds like it's time
for an alignment! A search for "lanny alignment miata"
on google.com or the club site will get you some
starting specs...

If I were you, I'd flip the tyres to the other side,
get the alignment ... and corner a lot harder :D

Nice tyres BTW - wish they still made 'em !!

The Bridgestone guyz on Morehouse ave in ChCh do a good job, and give a
club discount.
