i'd say tracking is to blame, my mate had 40mm drop on his 17's and his tyres wore evenly (right down to the core LOL)

you cant adjust a corsa's stadard camber......so you have to buy a camber kit...which will let yuo get the right camber..

because u've lowered the car, the tracking will be out. Take it to a garage to have it checked. will only cost u about 10 quid :)

Hi i'm gettin heavy tyre wear on the inside of the front tyres due to the camber. Ive lowered the car on standard shocks, about 40mm. Because of this ive been told i need adjustable camber bolts. about £100 to do.
Has anybody else had this problem? Do these adjustable camber bolts cure it or is it somethink else causing the tyre wear?
Any advice would be most appreciated.
