Front Wheel Alignment
« on: 13 August 2018, 06:14:24 pm »
Hello All.
I have noticed that my front wheel is been wearing more on the right side than on the left. Is become quite noticeable now.
I have done a quick search on google and some people were saying that it might be that the forks might be need to be straighten.
Wondering if this is a hard thing to do or should i get someone to do that.


Cheers

road camber can do it what tyres you running and what psi you using

Davie is right Road Camber will cause tyres to wear on the right hand side.

Ok that might be the issue them. I will check the forks and calipers anyway just to rule out.
Thanks for the sketch!  :D
