poss wheel brg or summit suspension causing the tracking to be out

did you have the wheels alligned when you had the konis fitted?

 

they found quite a few problems with mine when I got it alligned, now the steering wheel is 30 degrees off what I thought was centre

yeah had it 4 wheel aligned soon after fitting about 3 months ago...

might be a wheel bearing i guess although it should still handle ok and that would make wirring noise when cornering hard. Could be a track rod or ball joint, it all takes a pounding with that motor up front. whats been replaced and whats original?? If the track rods nacked the front wheels may try to go pidgeon toed, or the oposite i cant remember, that will take the inner or outer edges off the tyres depending which way they are trying to pull

i thinks its a ball joint or track rod...

 

the cars going in for front engine mount tomorrow so get it sorted then,

cor i see a big bill coming with 2 tyres the above problem and the engine mount better go rob a bank!

BJ replacements shouldn't cost much glen, or you could DIY it? You'll need to get it alligned again though.

checked the tyre pressure today and the tyre with the bad wear was down to 25 psi could that of caused it?

I've checked my tyres and found them to be as low as 10 psi (!!!) and i've never had that sort of wear. So I doubt thats it?
