hey guys!

so im not really sure what the hell is going on with my wheels at the moment, i have an R34 with crappy Koya 19" rims, ps. dont buy koya! the tyre people i have gone to have said that the camber is as the way off but they still wear only on the insides, which is becoming a problem when im going through tires ever 6-12 months! i have been told that i need coil overs to fix the problem. does anyone have the same problem and if so how do i fix it!!!!!!!!!!!!! will it just do it constantly because ive got 19" rims? they also make a lot of noise comparing them to the 17" stock rims. PLEASE HELP ASAP! thumbsup.gif

I would change the rims for something in 18s or 17s( I run 17 x 9) - the very low profile dictated by the large diameter will be giving you a rough ride. But to address your tyre wear problems you need a wheel alignment (ask around for the best Suspension shop in Townsville) and they will tell you if there is not enough adjustment what aftermarket parts you need to get there. But post up their suggestions before you spend the cash in case they are having you on.

When you get a wheel alignment the dude should be able to back off some camber even if you don't have adjustable arms.

I got new wheels and a alignment for my 32 GTR and asked the dude if there was anything they could do to help rid that, he said yeah and did something..

so i took my car into pedders, seems all the other tyre shops had no idea what to do about my tyre problem but pedders were freaking awesome. turns out my bushes were stuffed in the front and rear. they done a proper wheel alignment and i got a camber kit to remove the camber. luckily it had nothing to do with my 19" because i really didnt want to sell them. but the shit part is that my inner wheels had scrubbed so much that they couldnt even flip them on the rim so i could keep using them........... so yet another $1000... but luckily ive still got my stock rims to chuck on until i can get the tyres and im also looking into getting my rims power coated purple and black! pretty sweet for anyone wanting awesome looking rims, and really cheap! $88 per rim! cheers for all ya help thanks.gif
