yes Posted by bobc [Email] ![]() ![]() ![]() In Reply to: VERY loud tires, Tarheel, Fri, 20 Feb 2009 07:08:05 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
yes, tire cupping is causing the noise, yes it will drive you crazy, and yes shims are the only way to adjust the camber.
you probabally realize but a proper alignment will not solve the current noise. The only solution to the *noise* is new tires.
you can reduce the noise by having your tire shop flip the tires on the rim.
you can avoid cupping with a proper alignment and frequent rotations.
Tarheel are you near Chapel Hill? If so take the car to "The Digital Chassis" in Durham for your alignment. (bring shims with you)
