Cheers Stav.

Sorted the problem for the time being, managed to get myself 2 realy good part worn Yoko's with loads of tread on them both fitted and balanced for £50 I had these on my old 306 and they are really good tyres and the car now feels alot more planted so i'm happy again, the bloke who runs the tyre place said it's not uncommon for tyres to wear that quickly when your just pootleing around like I do, he said the wear was too even for it to be a major tracking or Geo problem all though he did say he'd expect more like 13k rather than around 10k which is what i've done on them, still want the Geo doing and still trying to convince the missus it needs coilcovers but at least it's legal again:biggrin:

40mm Lowering Springs, Re-sprayed Front, 6000K HID's, Re-furbed alloys, Bandit Induction Kit (cheers Chris), Raised boot spoiler with LED, Blue calipers with silver decals, De-badged rear, Chrome Oil Filler Cap (thanks to Chris again), White LED dash bulbs, Blue a/c control bulbs, Blue door markers and interior lights, Sony head unit, Chrome Lexus tax disc holder, TRD side skirts, Original Saloon Front Bumper re-fitted instead of Sportcross

Let us know how they hold up on the V8 then Marcus, I have them on the 300 and so far they are faring very well, i think that the tracking and camber is set up well!!

Sounds a good price, what price are they normally (I got mine on the wheels in a package) might buy them so I have a new set when mine need replacing Smile
