Brand new front tires already getting chopped up on the insides!!!!!
Brand new front tires already getting chopped up on the insides!!!!!
So I got new tires on the 20s and im totally in alignment specs as i go there every 2 month to recheck and my front insides are still getting chopped up. I know its a ongoing problem but jesus i feel like its getting worse as the car gets older. Has anyone pin pointed the suspension issue? Maybe i can relace some bushing to tighten it up a little? Any thoughts?
There alignment specs have an entire degree of variability to be "within specs." So being within specs won't necessarily prevent accelerated inner tire wear.
On my sedan, I added camber kits front and rear to get the alignment as close to 0 degrees camber as possible. That may not be desirable for everyone, especially people that live in curvy, mountainous areas, but here in flat Florida, it's fine.

It comes as no surprise to me how many complaints I see concerning tire wear, and road noise with G35/350z owners. Hell, I read somewhere that some owners were trying to file a class action lawsuit over these issues.
It is a shame that Nissan had to design this much negative camber into the suspension in order to make the car handle good. Before someone starts flaming me- ask yourself.... Have I ever seen a stock BMW or Porsche with -1.8 deg of negative camber?
