    Tyre wear

    Can anyone help me in determining why both front tyres are wearing on the inner tread. Wha'ts interesting is that the tread wear is not even between lugs.

    Could this just be an alignment issue?

    Just so you know it was fitted with new King springs 2" lift and De Carbon shocks about 6 months ago.

    Thanks

    It makes sense.

    I was intending to get the alignment checked and now it's necessary as I bent the steering track rod just yesterday on Rocky track in the Toolangi state forest.

    The good that came out of this is that I was able to get up for the first time in four attempts and now I am forced to fit the new large diameter steering rods I had sitting in the shed for the last 5 months, and get the alignment done which hopefully will cure the innner tyre wear.
