Back in the garage

Noticed a bit of a shimmy from the steering wheel this morning - like the wheels are out of balance - had a look at them on full lock to find the front n/s tyre worn smooth along its inner edge, but the o/s is fine. I assume that's not the tracking as they would have worn equally ??

Ive taken it into an indy this morning to see what's going on. Big Cry

Any suggestions ?? Wheel bearing ?? Suspension bush ?? FF 4.4 V8 Soooo looking forward to this bad boy

Cant recall knocking it at all, but managed to scrub the inside of both front tyres to the casing. The only symptom was steering wheel wobble a couple of days ago.

Yep. I was thinking of maybe looking at a 2010/2011 model but TBH I'd like to get a bit of wear out of the tyres now. FF 4.4 V8 Soooo looking forward to this bad boy
