Wheels not straight

[mgsontour]

Hi all. Just bought a Shogun Mk3 and noticed the back wheels don't look straight ( the tops appear to be leaning inwards slightly ) is this correct as followed one today and they were the same? Cheers in advance

Take it to a tyre place and get them to check the alignment and camber

If you're worried, get a 4 wheel alignment. Unless one has been done recently, you might be surprised by how much better the car feels and drives afterwards, and it could save you money on tyres if they are out of spec.

Cheers. That sounds easy enough

Quick google finds the camber is common

"Also check rear tyre wear. You track them up by rotating the eccentric bolts that attach the wishbones to the chassis.
They're badly prone to seizing up inside the rubber bushes. Once they do you have to cut the bolt out and replace the Bush. Total barsteward of a job.
Mine and a mates both had tyres that looked like new across 80% of the tread but worn to the wires on the inside shoulder

I've noticed when following a few Shogun that the top of the rear wheels lean in very much and did wonder whether this resulted in tyre wear on the inside edge."

Rear camber is normal on most cars but as above get it on a Hunter (most quick fit have these) that's the best way to get a properly accurate picture of whats going on and the machine will say if the readings are in normal range.
