Lowered Ls430 Tyre Problems

[ozzy430]

hi,

ive lowered the air suspension on my ls on front and back, but on the rears the inner rear tyres were wearing out really quick, infact they were actually getting cut. they werent scraping anywhere inside the arches either. i had to change 2 sets within 300miles. ive had the tracking done too. now ive had to raise the back up again and there has been no problem since. has anyone had this problem or know what i could do to stop this?

cheers

How far did you lower it?

Too much negative camber will do the insides of the tyres, forget tracking you need a geo check.

well i lowered it so the tyres were right on the arches or maybe slightly under. where can i get a geo check ?

You need THE DOCTOR if you lower the car the negative camber puts all the load on the insides of the tyres. So if adjustable he will correct the camber as much as possible.
