450H L Air Susp Rear Tyre Wear


Recommended Posts

My rear tyres are wearing on the inner tread, they are Dunlop SP Max A1 19" wheels

I have been told by the MOT tester that they need chaging very soon, even though the rest of the tyre has at least 4mm this is happening on both rear tyres. Is this common with the 450h with Air suspension?

If so, are Lexus aware, should i have been warned by the main dealer (altjough hardly likely)?

or is there a camber adjustment that can be made

Sounds like you need 4 wheel alignment doing.

Have a look at ATS Euromaster site for information and prices and see if it fits in with what you are experiencing.

Thanks for that but i now find out that the camber cannot be adjusted on the rear wheels

My only option it seems ia to try tyres with a 105 loading as opposed to the 101 OEM loading, the common thought is that the batteries are adding to much weight over the rear wheels, although the torque generated may alkso be a factor, neither of which help as the wheels seem to be set up wrongly at the factory!

I was told by my tyre provider that inner thread wear is typical of all RX models. I certainly have had the same problem with mine.

When I bought mine I had similar problem with tyre wear, I had mine four wheel lasered by sca international at cost of £80.00 and tyre wear has been spot on since, four years ago. The guy said he is always doing lexus models as they all seem to be adjusted out from the factory once adjusted never a problem.
