Re: TYRE WEAR

[DMCVegas@xxxx]

That's odd. I have a set of Yoko's on my car, and after almost 
14,000 miles, they still have a very good amount of tread left.

2 people with excessive tire wear with 2 different types of tires 
seems to indicate that there is an underlying condition 
somewhere that is causing this problem. A quick search on 
Google resulted in quite a few hits that all appear to suggest that 
excessive tire vibration may be the culprit behind the excessive 
wearing. And even then the sites have suggested that the tire 
vibration can be caused by faulty suspension components and 
braking components.

Perhaps it may be time for a computerized tire balancing and/or 
a set of new shocks.
