4x4 Cos front end. what can be done?
hey all.
Whats the best way of getting rid of inside edge tire wear on a 4x4 saph?
its -25mm, koni shocks.
and HAS polybushed arms..
Not sure how old the bushes are. Do they wear out?
tires are going on Very very inside edges
any info would be great thanks!

Simple,go and buy a set of adjustable rose jointed track control arms these will also stop your shafts from poping out,any car which is lowered should have these anyway
when lowering a car you also change the camber setting hence poping shafts and wearing the inside of the tyre out

Just lookin at burton website, at adjustable arms,
they do Rubber bushed ones as well as Rose jointed ones.
Would rose jointed ones be a fookin nightmare on the road? Too harsh?
Or are the rubber bushed ones the ones to go for.
thanks again!

Call ian at racetek, he'll do the rose jointed ones, and from what ive heard they are perfectly acceptable to use on the road.
im gonna get a set think they are about £210 pair

The rose jointed arms will be mildly more harsh and a little more noisy, where as the rubber bushed arms will soak up a small amount more!
You can always take out the inner bushes and still replace them with poly bushes on the adjustable arms!
all will depend on what your main intention is for the car.
but imo if your going to go thru the effort in changing the arms to adjustable then why not go the whole way and go for the rosejointed version... i certainly have

Not really sure, but i know Burton and Rally Design both do them either way.
At a guess id say Zoo will offer the rosejointed ones.
(but im happy to be corrected)
