October 17, 200618 yr Steering uj is common to cause this so is front tension rods /if under braking could be discs warpped.
October 17, 200618 yr Tyre seperation? Can you explain? ...or do you mean the tracking's out? Cheerz Jack
October 18, 200618 yr The tread seperates from the steel bands. Is more common in retreads though but can happen with punctures / damage. Usually causes a wobble in the steering at lower speeds.
October 22, 200618 yr Could be warped discs caused by poor calipers in need of a service. Ivan I got this and it was wheel balancing. (spelling ?) Not alignment, the actual balancing weights had come off the inner rim of the wheel. Defo worth a try IMO as it's cheap to fix. :)
October 22, 200618 yr yep always go with the easiest first take it to a tyre shop and get the wheels balanced, if theres any problem with tyres im sure they will be quick to point it out
October 22, 200618 yr In my case for a long time my zed was lowered but the camber was not corrected so eventualy the front tyres warped and made the front judder after 50mph. Quite dangerous. Got it sorted with front upper adjustable suspension links and new tyres.
