[grothie1978]

my vn has king springs in it
front inner tyres are worn real bad, pretty hectic in steering too

sounds like they are running with a lot of positive camber.
what other mods have you done to the runnin gear?
Pm assuming you have the lower kings, then you would need the Nolathane Link pins and bushes.

Honestly mate get it diagnosd at a tyre/shock place, its easy and the are ok.

cheers

Running too much negative camber if it wearing the insides. It is a common problem once you lower a car. When you lower it, the lower control arm moves up, this also pushes the bottom of the strut out giving it negative camber and also a bit of extra toe out because the rack is behind the control arm.

Get a wheel alignment done.

gettin new tyres so alignment is part of the deal

ahh well there ya go, I always thought the obvious, like if the camber was negative(bottom of the wheels closer than the top), it would wear the outside .

Depends on how you are looking at it. Negative camber is when the top of the wheel leans in, positive camber is when it leans out. Too much positive camber or too much toe in will wear the outsides, and too much negative camber or toe out will wear the insides.

ahh ok , then I have my positive negative round the wrong way.

Thought so, after your second comment.
