Your tyres have worn like that due to camber / tracking being out.

Looks really well the wheels im sure here BBS as the guy I went to buy it off was telling me how expensive they were.AsWayne said your camber and tracking need sorting I had mine done straigt after the coilovers were fitted as if you dont your tyres last about 10 mins.Like it though looks really nice  :smiley:

Yea I know tracking out slightly, there's. No adjustment on the camber though is there? Yea the wheels are bbs I tried searching to find out what model they are. Might put a pic on wheelwhores see if anyone on there knows. Goin to make a start on my wheels this weekend got a few other minor touches aswell.

Yea the camber can be out as there is slight play in the shock bolts.. But need doing at a garage so they can read the camber correctly, the slak the bolts off from underneath then push or pull the whell till it says 0deg. then tighten up again.!! :) happy days
  :wink:

Nice looking car tho mate.  :smiley:

busy weekend this one tinted and joeyed headlights, matte blacked the grille and made a start on my wheels


thanks to LL for sorting out the tints, they werent to bad to fit and with the black grille make a big difference to the front end


rims are only in white primer at the mo, centres are matte black dont really look it in the pics though.
