right people just a quickie for those with experiance alpina 17" reps on there sports is it normal to knock out the inside edges of the tyres in no time?
i love the look of thease rims, more so than the real ones so i dont realy wanna change them but i just cant justify keep buying new fcuking tyres like this!
also what tyre presures do u guys run on thease rims?
cheers guys from the DODGY D

If your car is lowerd they will wear the inner edges. You will have to sort the camber out.

i dont fink it has been lowerd! look about at it on the ramp at work and couldnt see ne fing wroung, done the tracking,so hopefully that will sort out the front knocking out tyres but the back eat them aswell, not as bad as tyre in photo but middle and inside edge, chap at work said the sports with thease wheels are realy well known to eat tyres?

cant really see how the wheels would be to blame,,i would say its most likely suspension component related..

Check your rear subframe bushes. cooked bushes will eat tyres!!!!!
