Thats not my car above but as you can see the front wheels sorta sit at a slant? is that due to the car being lowered or the tracking needs doing because my corsa sits like that atm with the front two wheels sitting at a slant? What would you say? Is it the tracking?

Maybe wrong but I think that wheel is slightly turned in abit, making it appear on a slant.

Tracking gets the front of the wheels sitting in or out.

As in tilting in at the top?

Thats not the tracking. The tracking changes toe in and toe out which is on the horizontal to the wheel.

Thats is to do with the tracking yes. However to get the top of the wheel sticking in (camber/caster) you need to do this.....

Of course its not, a garage would probably fix it for less than the price of two tyres every few weeks.

You'll be looking at £20 MAX to get your tracking done. Just drive to your local garage (not petrol station) and tell them that your tyres are bold on the inside, i've been told me tracking might be out.
