    according to the service books, the tyres have been rotated and balanced at 10k and 20k kms. Its going into Honda this week so we'll see what they say....looks like a set of new tyres and a good wheel alignment!

    Just out of curiosity how much neg camber do these cars have from factory? I measured it with a set square and it seems to have a fair bit!

    if your on stock,

    there is very limited adjustment they can do for camber.
    they can only fix up the toe in/out to correct it and reduce wear.

    but most adjustments will be very minimal.

    At 50,000kms, the car should have had new tyres by now! Anything less is dangerous.

    wouldn't take it as rule of thumb, rather a case by case basis

    it depends on the tire you are using and the road you drive as well... some tires can last 60k km while some goes after 30k km. Its better to look at the thread. Also check the date the tire is manufactured.

    never buy old tyres too, cause older the tyres harder the rubber will be and more it'll wear and tear quicker cause rubber hardens.
