VY rear camber probs?

[scozzman]

Hi All...

I'm about to purchase my new vy s pac next week.

I promised myself that i wouldnt by another Holden due to the terrible trouble I had with my VT's rear inner tyre wear problem. Which ended up costing me big dollars in tyres over the years.

However I have fallen in love with this vy and cannot help myself.

So please tell me that Holden have fixed this problem with the rear wheels wearing!??!

No they have made it worse. The VT had a camber kit available to fix the camber problem in the the rear end of the car. The VY however they have put additional toe adjustments in the VY which makes a camber kit useless because the ones for the VT/VX arent strong enough for the VY Commodores

Having the adjustment in the VY would make it better wouldn't it as the adjustment is already there.

if a vy is anything like a vz they have fixed it

No problems with myn either,the S pac has the FE2 suspension setup and the wear on the tyres doesn't seem to be any different than running a live axle rear end.So put me down in the "they've fixed it"camp,at least on the S pacs anywayz,not sure about the execs if breast69au's having problems!

Yep, no major problems here either.

After I lowered my car (from FE2) 1.5" all round, I now get SLIGHT tyre wear on the inside of the tyres. Barely noticable really.

I think it's the guys who put superlows on etc that have the tyre wear problem. If your car is to remain standard height, you shouldn't have a problem.

My VY S2 has got no problems with its camber, it was a little out when i bought it but that was soon fixed with a wheel alignment.
Go for it!!!!

from vy onwards the included rear adjustment as standard and since then i haven't heard anyone complain about camber issues

vx2 onwards are fine.

Yer also mine has been as close to perfect as you can get,
Just replaced my tyres this week, was running maxis 135/45/17inch , They got me 62,000km with 2 wheel aligns in that time,
Tyre pro rekons that the series1's have trouble cause there not rear end adjustable, have no idea on the truth of that but gota say im happy with amount of k's out of a tyre, hope this helps

My VY has being wearing ALL tyres on the Inner edge. Last month I bought new tyres and the guy did a wheel alignment. He told me that it was the best VY he had ever seen, he said that the wheel alignment was perfect!!!, then I told him about it wearing on the inner edge and he said to do 5000km on the new tyres and then to bring it back and he would rotate all the tyres and adjust the camber on it.
