Blistered FRONT Tyre.....

[Anonymous]

Hmmmmmm, went to MrT yesterday to winge that they'd not sorted a few bits, namely the bumper extensions and the gearbox bearings, anyway they took the car for a drive because it was still being "weird" through the corners and they brought it back and said........

"Its fine on the straight with NO camber, the steering wheel is a little out of alignment, when you go into a corner its ALL OVER THE PLACE THOUGH"

Then they went on to ask:

"have you been driving hard........."to which i just asked why, turns out that the front left tyre has "blistered" on the edges......would it not be both that blister through driving and should i push for a new one as its the problem they've still not sorted?

Both mine had blistered after going to North Weald, they asked me the same question and I said yes, but it was on an airfield. I wouldn't say that blistering is something that happens when driving normally, mine were OK before North Weald. And I didn't rag it like the others did before they mention that   s:roll: :roll: s:roll:  

Made no difference to the safety of the tyre though, so the question is though, have you been driving hard??

[Anonymous]

Yeah but not THAT hard, thought perhaps it might have something to do with the steering problem?

Is it blistered? or scarred? have you got any pics?  I personally think you'd have to be driving insanely fast to do that much damage on the road, without a problem exacerbating it. And as you've said you're not then problem is likely to be with the tracking IMO. What tyres are you on?
