Inside Tire Edge Wear by toner2

'05 X-Type with 75,000 miles. Great car, love it, but recently tire edge wear has been a problem. Dealer says no one can balance tires. Jaguar does not recommend tire rotation to the best of my knowledge. Right rear camber is out of spec, and there is no adjustment. However, all 4 tires are showing feathering inside. Have Kuhmo tires and they are noisier than I like, but now the tire noise is worse, with only 17K miles. Is trauma the only thing that can throw the wheels out of spec? Why do all 4 tires show irregular wear? Just wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem. Insurance calls this a 'wear & tear' problem. Dealer will just start replacing parts to try and fix.
 
Thanks, toner2

I have an X Type '02 with 73 k on it . The dealer just replaced the rear lower control arms. The tire stand up straight in the rear now. I have a 100k 8 year warrantee, The dealer covered the arms,says this will fix it. Also doesn't rattle over bumps anymore, nice and quiet..

I hv an '04 X-type AWD with 48000 miles with Falken 18 inchers that I hv rotated every other oil change with no probs it may be a compatability issue.... Good Luck !

I have that same problem (tire road hum) with our tires (OE Continentals) too. Which type of Yokohamas did you get? Our 2006 is getting close to needing a set and I'm looking for quiet! Anyone else have good luck with any other brands?

I put the Yoko Avids on my Jag. They've got about 5K miles on them now. They're a bit noisy at low speeds because the tread is very aggressive on them. So far they've been very satisfactory in rain and snow for me.

Thanks. I am shooting for the quiet ride, so I'll keep looking. Many manufacturers say their product provides a quiet ride, but quiet to them may be different to me!!

Thanks. It sounds like you are satisfied and I did hear that Pirelli's do provide a quieter ride.

What would be the best OBD to get for my '02 X Type. I want to be able tom use it when the car is operating. I have a rough idle thtat shows up on heavy acceleration and decleration that remains til I restart the car. The amber and read dash lights come on but it doesn't store a code..
