Renaukt Clio Cup Spo
Hi i have a All 172 cup ph2 2002.
I had a slight curb knock recently which incurred a front offside puncture, I had 2 new front Tyres fitted and the offside front has gone below legal within weeks, 1mm 1.6mm 2mm in the treads. The Near side is still reading at 5mm 5mm 5mm.
I have been reading up on camber due to the car being slightly lowered that this could have been an issue but a KTEC mechanic checked set my spring and coil set up and said it was fine after a mechanical check. (Camber Bolts due to be fitted in next 2 weeks)
The wheel bearing on that side also has excessive play which wasn't noted or told to myself when i had the pair of the front matching tyres ones put on, and that offside bearing is almost completely worn, all other 3 are near perfect.
Im aware that lowering a car can introduce slight camber issues but the wear on the tyre and the bearing should not be that not be this excessive?
Could there be a deeper issue from the curb knock? KTEC didn't pick up on anything else.
Should i look into toe?
Any help or suggestions guys :smile:
Regards
Alex
