hi all, just got back from a fab time in the lakes, only to notice my two front tyres going bald on both inside edges. looks like a tracking job, question is are any of the national companies up to the job, who is best and whats a fair price, any advise welcome. cheers rick.

find a local independant tyre specialist, the tend to be more cluded up and want the custom. Last time I had mine checked it was £20 and that included adjustment.

Just be aware that a common problem and cause of such tyre wear is: Collapsed top wishbone bushes.
There is NO point in spending money on geometry adjustment IF these need replacing.
Also note* make sure the CAMBER is adjusted as many so called experts either don't realise or choose to ignore this important adjustment.
The reason for this is that camber is not adjustable on most vehicles so they may choose to fob you off by saying it doesn't need altering.
I was Beissbarth four wheel alignment trained so know how the trade works.
