toe in measurements and replacement tyres

[Dave W]

Both my front tyres have worn on inner edges , suspect toe in is out as tyres are correctly inflated and suspensions fine. Does anyone know what the correct toe in measurements are for a 1990 "jx" engined westy atlantic. On a seperate note can anyone recommend any new replacement tyres and approx cost (standard size 185 14) that wont cost an arm and a leg!!!!!!!. Someone mentioned that avon supervan`s are good????.

These settings are for standard van (not lowered)
It may also be advisable to DOUBLE check the TOP wishbone bushes as these are particularly prone on the T25.

I can recommend Hankook RA08 which are starting to be fitted on many vans now as OEM equipment.
I got four 185 14C fitted and balanced for £188 by Camskill at Whitehaven. They also supply direct for your own fitter at £40 each I understand. (They are on the internet if you google)
Having had them now for over four months they seem to be better than most other tyres (including Michelin, Avon and Goodyear) that I have had on my T25 since new.
