Unusual one this , the rear suspension geometry can't be adjusted, and rear suspension arm rubber bush problems would show up as scrubbing down one side of the tyre .
How does the rear tyres camber look when viewed from the back of the car ?
Leaning in at the top or leaning out ? straight up and down, or one different from the other ?

,,tyre presure is checked once a week .Both tyres fitted at the same time ,firestone firehawks both speed rated the same .As for the camber the wheel seems to sit straight up and down ,but the drivers side seems to lean in at the top ,its not easy to judge .I will try to check it over the week end with a string line or something ,Thankyou for the replys folks
