New Nexen Tyres and a wheel alignment check on a Ford Kuga in Yapton
A customer who works from home, found Hometyre on the internet and liked the idea of having his tyres changed at home, while he continued working. The rear tyres had been replaced recently, but both front tyres on the Kuga were worn in the centre to the legal limit. This is a sign that they were over pressure. When I asked the customer about pressures, he admitted that he kept them at full load pressure all the time.
Two new Nexen RU1 tyres were fitted to the wheels, which were then balanced and put back on the car.
I then checked the wheel alignment. This vehicle should be set at +1.5 (with a +/- 1.5 tolerance) the actual measurement was +1.7 which is well within tolerance, so no adjustment was required.
