Hey all,

Got a slight problem with the tyres on the front of my corsa, i've only had them on for just over a month and already they are bald. I do however have Janspeed coilovers and droped on its arse, lol, they also seem to toe in at the top of the tyre if that makes a difference. The alloys are fox 3 evo's and the tyres are 195/45/15.

Just wondered if anyone else had the same problem and if they did could help me with any suggestions in how to stop or calm it down.

Thanks, Andy

Just the inside or whole way across?

If it's just inside, get tracking looked at. If it's all the way across either get better tyres or stop doing wheel spins...?

I'm not dead sure, but a four wheel alignment might help as well.
