    Default vy 04 ss --your opinion matters--any ideas

    hi guys

    your opinion matters ,,

    Can bad tires cause a wheel bearing problem?
    Or it’s caused by rough driving (rally).

    Is it worth buying a non genuine part (wheel bearing, shoes, brake pads, bush, ball joint, ......

    thanks for passing by and sharing ideas..

    A constantly bad allignment for years and years may wear a bearing prematurely but it's unlikely. If it's the front left bearing that may be a sign of hard cornering, roundabouts and hard right hooks are more common than lefties I think.

    What are the symptoms? I assume we are talking commy here, just noticed you refer to rough driving/ rally.
