It seems like if it's too low, the tires(tyres)start to "cup" or get a uneven wear pattern, and the problem increases with mileage.Erik Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08051303728879129181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5119951275142904676.post-39196347449470634612013-07-28T20:38:20.150+10:002013-07-28T20:38:20.150+10:00Hey, you copied my post!!
