Car: LS Focus 2006
Just bought car. Has vibration through the boy. Had tyres balanced but two rear tyres are not evenly worn. Has anyone experienced this problem? |

They obviously swapped front to rear, the most worn one most likely from the front left...and being FWd and no LSD it would have worn just that tyre everytime the wheels spun.
Also...if they swapped left to right accidentally...instead of just front to back then the tread wear will be all wrong and will atke a few hundred k's to realign itself. check the wheel nuts are on tight? |

Rear shocks a likely the problem. They seem to wear the tyres lumpy which usually causes a loud huling and vibration. Jack the rear up and free spin the wheels to see if there up and down not round

Good feedback. I jacked up the wheel that had some damage to the rim. Appears to be running out.
Appreciate the advice. |
