Has any one got suggestions in why I'm going through so many tyres. My car is lowered and I have 19" rims with 245 35 19 tyres. What could I do to fix this? Thanks
What is going on the tyres for u to need new tyres all the time bald all over or just the edge ? How do ya drive it and how many Kay's ya getting out of them ?
Most I've paid for 18s since I got my car was $140 each, fitted and balanced. Not sure where you're shopping? Are you getting regular alignments done? Do you hit kerbs a lot? Hard to comment with the little information provided.
Fronts, I drive all different ways, and they Only wear on the inside, waste of good tyres. I think I'm gonna start going on eBay and buy tyres, Darwin is too expensive, bloody rip off. Are 19x8.5 too big I haven't touched camber but when it was lowered that shoulda been changed?? That correct?
Have you had a wheel alignment? Camber is adjustable on the front. Lowering would have increased the negative camber and negative camber wears the inside of tires
No but paying $300 a wheel if you're not at the track every day probably is. I'm not trying to start an argument, I just don't see the advantage in such expensive tyres for day to day driving.
Skimping on tyres is retarded. Tyres are what determine your braking capabilities as well as keeping your car stuck to the road. How you drive is irrelevant, you can't foresee emergency situations that require good traction to avoid serious injury. That being said you don't have to spend a fortune either, my 245/35R19s are $275 each and are a great all round tyre in grip, handling and life. (Maxxis Victra MA-Z1) Inside edge wear on the fronts can either be incorrect toe settings or excessive neg camber. A wheel alignment should correct this issue.
