Forums Forums Enthusiast Forums A - Z Autowirral Inside Tyre Wear?

..if its a worn bush, the alignment may only go out under load - at a standstill it may appear fine

I have all the camber and tracking gauges if you need it checking Joe...(not string and sticky back plastic etc lol)

If i have read the posts correctly then the track, camber and/or castor will not make any difference as the wear is only on one tyre and not both......

This would suggest a worn suspension bush or a broken coil spring on one side (The side with the worn tyre).

Now if my memory serves me right you drive a E36 BMW ? If so then the rear suspension bushes are prone to collapse (Especially if wheelspin's/drifting/erratic drivig) so i would get these checked thoroughly. They are infront of your rear wheel just on the inside of your sill area.

I would post a picture for you but i have forgotten how too..... Now thats really bad !

If it were camber/castor then typically both rear tyres would wear down. Hope this helps you ? If your stuck you know where i live, feel free to pop in for a cffee and i will have a look for you.

Flippin Eck! Long time no see

Cheers for the advise and offer mate, but this problem was a while ago and I think it's sorted now

Toe can cause increased wear on the inside or outside though! It removes the wear from the front to the sides.

This tyre, which was -one week old-, was toed out by 1 degree!
