Hi, looked at my front tyres this morning to find worn inside edge on both front tyres(225/50/16).Had to new ones fitted and had tracking checked, the tracking came out perfect and was told its common on scorps and its to do with the camber. Does anyone know if the camber is adjustable on the front and if so what are the figrures? Many thanks, jim.

camber not adjustable, usually down to springs sagged, get track set to toe in more to counteract, increase tyre pressures as well.

Other causes for uneven tyre wear are worn wishbone bushes, worn track rod ends or worn track rod inner ball joints  Smiley
