Because mine seem to be wearing away the outside edge, when it was in the dealers over the weekend we had an in depth discussion as to why this could be. The fitter seems to think it is a trait of the continentals to wear like this but has agreed to do a full geommetry check because his words when on a test run were this car does not feel right and should not knock and bang like it does.
Also just recently I have noticed that when driving I have a constant battle to keep the car straight ahead and does tend to pull to the left.

Hence you have had these tyres since new and mine have only covered about 5000 miles so would be good to see the difference in wear on the outside edge. Its out there somewhere. Second V10 Treg on the drive at the moment.

I will take some shots of tyres over lunch for you biggles.

Biggles,
I have a TDV6 and it tracks as straight as an arrow. It's been pretty blustery recently and I've been impressed at how little it is affected by crosswinds considering its size.
It sounds like something is out of alignment on your car. You shouldn't be losing the edge of your tyres after only 5000 miles.

Martin,

Do JE do a system for the TDV6?

Hello to all again,

Yes JE do both a system and tail pipes for the TDV6 - if you call them - speak to either John ( reception ) or Jonathan who owns the business. Dont forgett to mention ME and the FORUM

Edinburgh was a great weekend - just not enough hours in the day & shame England only managed to field a B squad

MDP, any claimed performance improvement with the new exhaust?? Currently: Carbon Black 535d

YES - but not untill I fit the front section which includes a new replacement CAT. JE Engineering were not happy with the Lorini system CAT - so they are developing their own and I intend to look at this when its launched.

But its worth it just for its LOOKS
