    2000 VT 157xxx kms knocking coming from rear

    current tyres are fine but the old 17's I had were worn to the nylon, mainly on the inner area, I run 34-36psi in 205/65R15's on the rear and the front 235/45R17's on the front haven't been touched, would this problem be related to camber?

    2000 VT 157xxx kms knocking coming from rear

    2000 VT 157xxx kms knocking coming from rear

    I put the stockies on the back because my 17's were camber worn badly, upon checking the tyres closely there's only the rear right that has a bald wall. I doubt bald walls could cause knocking but I have been wrong before

    2000 VT 157xxx kms knocking coming from rear

    its not the exhaust, have already checked that. at 5kph it starts as a dull thud every 6 seconds then as you are accelerating up to 90kph it increases to around 10 knocks per 2 seconds
