Hi guys! I did lowered my Z 7 months ago with a Tanabe Gf210 lowering springs
then i had them align with one of this Performance shop guys here in Orlando. I told them just to do the factory specs. After 7 months of driving i decided to take my Front wheels out myself for inspections. Here's what i found out! You guys have any idea what happen here? Any suggestions? Thank You!

 

Oh, I'll take a wild guess and say they didn't make it to "factory specs".

 

Rub line looks thin to be camber wear. Rubbing on suspension components?

 

Both tires look like that, or just this one?

 

Wow. Sure is off or something isnt rt for sure. 7 months-u could've easily knocked back out of align if they had it right.

 

Yes both front tires are like that, i did checked if it is rubbing on something but i don't see any reasons. it's the inside corners of both tires are really rub off badly. Never had a chance to check it in 7 month because the car runs great! No vibrations felt of what so ever.

 

Waaay too much toe-out maybe?

 

The strange part of this is when you look at the front view of the two corners of the front tires are not even touching the ground. I don't know, What do you think experts?

 

I would turn the wheel all the way in each direction and ensure its not rubbing on the inner fender or something.

Also check the bushings on your suspension components for the front.

If you can't find any obvious reason for your tires to wear that way, take it in get the alignment checked.

 

Did you get an alignment before or after you put those tires on? Getting an alignment with worn tires will only result in a misaligned suspension once you get new tires.

Also you should put up the alignment printout to confirm "factory specs"

 

Z1NONLY thanks! i will do that! my 2006 350z had 37,000 miles.

 

I had those tires since 5 years ago with stock springs and still i had a good tread in it. Only happened when i put those lowering spring and they didn't gave me a print out for the alignment.

 

Do you have adjustable front arms? If not you are not in OEM specs. Also, yoru compression arm bushings are probably shot, it probably aligned out close to OEM spec, the bushings fail from being lowered and your alignment is now off. Last, that looks like toe wear, without the bushings fail, the Z slightly gains toe and needs be be aligned often.

 

Thats not too bad. Keep your speed under 100 MPH and you should be OK.

 

if you are worried about safety, that should be ok to drive on. I once had all four tires bald to the point where wires were showing all over.

 

I wouldn't drive on that tire unless I absolutely had to.

 

Nope!!! I don't think so!! Safety first! Can't drive that kind of tires conditions here in Orlando! Hot pavements! You are just asking for an accidents!
