Felix,
Just seen your PM from a few weeks ago in relation to remap in the North. Thanks for info however clutch died a couple of weeks ago so funding a remap put back a few months.
Have you ever had any issues in relation to excessive tyre wear. Fitted two new front tyres in February I say at most they have around 7k miles on them and the inside rim of both are like slicks. Just checking them the other day as I have NCT next week. Will def need new set again to pass at the 18" 225's on the ZT aint cheap. Tracking is pretty good its not pulling excessively to one side or anything just a slight preference to pull to the left which I believe all LHD drive cars are set up to.
From the general forum our UK friends often mention the 4 wheel adjustment on our cars. I have had mine tracked sveral times over last couple of years and the guys only always adjust the front only. I was with the fitter the last time he was at it & he def only adjusted the front. When I mentioned the rear adjustment he said front adjustment is all thats needed. Is there anyone you could reccomend to do it properly.

Hi, You have to do tracking on all 4 whells. If the back setting will be out, You will have to constantly corecting the front to go straight. If the tracking would be out allot, car would be pulling to one side. But if its only small bit out, that will be wearing your tyres.
The other reason could be something worn in suspension, which changes all angles and settings
