robertg Posted February 4, 2004 Report Share Posted February 4, 2004 the car is a 90 lumina base model with euro rims. i went to the tire shop today, and found out that the rear tires are wearing unevenly.... the wear is most evident on the tread of the tire, along the edge facing the inner wheel wells. so it looks like i'm getting new tires in the spring. i'm wondering... this car has the trailing arms..... could they be bent? thanks in advance.

Intimidatorz34 Posted February 4, 2004 Report Share Posted February 4, 2004 check the trailing arms and lateral links along the leaf springs to see if they are bent. The lateral links get bent pretty easily if someone doesnt know what they are doing if they tow the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EurosportZ34 Posted February 5, 2004 Report Share Posted February 5, 2004 Have you or the previous owners rotated the tires before? That helps so they wear evenly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaPaPooh Posted February 5, 2004 Report Share Posted February 5, 2004 rear tires cross the driver and fronts come straight back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
