Tracking/ Geometry specialist???

[Mr Cellotape]

Hi everyone, I'm looking for some help with my tracking/geometry....

I'm on my second set of front tyres on 25K miles....

The first ones wore out on the inner edges so I though tracking knackered and had it done at the same time as getting new tyres at 20K.

I checked my tyre wear this morning and it would yet again appear that the front tyres are again wearing on the inner edges more than anywhere else.

Does anybody know of a specialist that can sort this out locally to me. I'm in Warwick and would happily travel to brum, Rugby etc on Saturday if there is a specialist who will get it sorted once and for all.

I would also be keen to know what it's likely to cost?

I had exactly the same prob. at 20k . tyres worn on inside.
Two new front tyres and wheel alignment cost me about £130 but that was locally in Belfast. The alignment part of it only takes a few minutes and doesnt cost much compared with the tyres.
What annoyed me was Id had the car from new, driven it gently and the tyres were like new excepton the very inside edge.

Give Northampton Motorsport a call - 01604 766 624

Or Stealth Racing have a laser alignment machine - 01926 812 259

They've both done setups on my cars.

 

[Mr Cellotape]

Cheerrs, do you know where stealth are located and what sort of costs i'm looking at?

m0rk - the alignmest specialists I used in Notts only charged around £30, using pukka Hunter alignment system (ie not the basic stucc used in fast fit tyre places). Bargain if you ask me !

 

[Mr Cellotape]

Have you got the details for the place in Notts?

 

[muddyboots]

I think I posted about them in the "Suspension & Handling" forum, have a nosey in there.

 

[Mr Cellotape]

Thanks.
