NSR Tyre inside edge worn

[Dave Y]

As above the inner edge of the tyre is wearing badly.
The other three are fine.
What  could  cause this
Is it a common fault?

Sounds like it's time to get some wheel alignment done.

[shail]

Mine had this, but was both tyres.   I was told it was worn rear shocks and springs.  Also alignment could be out as you've only got 1 wheel doing it. 

[Dave Y]

Perhaps it is time for new shock absorbers.
Who sells OEM at a good price?
Could I fit oem shocks with slightly lower springs ?
What size is the standard rear anti roll bar ?

[colesey]

It does sound like this wheel is seeing too much camber.

[Dave Y]

I need to refurb the suspension then get a 4 wheel alignment done.
I want standard shock absorbers and slightly lower springs.
Where do I go for them?

I want the same at some point this year Dave, I've been eyeing this kit up for a while.

I’ve some Eibach sportlines for sale if you’re interested?
Ran them before I had coilovers.
20-25mm drop I think they quote, had them on with Oem shocks with no probs.

I got coilovers on mine.. (JOMs.. ermm yeah, not my choice, they came on the car) so I do want shocks and springs, OEM feel with sportier stiffness. have you still got the OEM shocks too? although you might have sold them by the time I come to buy some, got holiday coming up, so brassic atm.

[MIJ_JAGGER]

I’ve actually put my original springs and shocks back on the car. Need the car to be back to stock I’m afraid.
I’ve got the coilovers (H&R Ultralow) for sale and the Sportines too...no more lowlife sadly

I have this, although bought it all separately.  Works really well for the price.  I do however get some bottoming out issues on some speed bumps and when doing things like mounting kerbs.

thanks @shail I'm pretty sure my JOM - A - DOM - Condoms are like 30 odd mm low front and back and I occasionally scrape some higher speed bumps, tyres rub arches if cornering a little too hard and the roads a bit bumpy.. it can literally foul the arches, ive had to bend the inside lip back up a few times! and I don't even chance mounting kurbs, although it'd be nice to be able to if needed. I defo think your set up will be the way I go :-)

How much do you want for them?
Where are you based ?
