I think I've got a similar problem that a few people here have had.

I've noticed that the rear seems to slide out a bit when going round tight-ish bends. I'm not flooring as I've only had the car 2 weeks. It just feels like the back is sliding sidways over the ground. Tends to happen on more uneven surfaces. Its always been dry. I'd have thought I'd hear tyre squeal before it loose grip. Its silent. Straight line grip is fantastic. Even my gf was able to notice it from the passenger seat.

I was thinking that I need it aligned. However this morning I've discovered that the 1 rear was 33psi and the other 30psi. Could this be the cause? I'll see how it behaves today now I've adjusted them to 30psi (cold).

Otherwise I guess it need aligning. Can anyone suggest a good place round Ipswich, Suffolk???

Am I just being paranoid about my new toy???

Thanks
Alan

 

Forgot to say that the tyres are ES02JZ with a lot of tred left.

 

Think its 32 psi when cold, you could try www.nemesisperformance.net they are just outside Colchester, I had mine done there a while ago and they seemed to have done a good job. Have a look in the FAQ and you can print out the specs you want the alignment set at.

 

Yep 32 psi all round.

 

Opps!
I'll set them to 32psi

Thanks!

 

depends where in suffolk you live, head out to stortford perfoamnce wheels and tyres, they also have a branch in cambridge but th ebishop stortford bunch have newer machinery and do alot more alignments. 01279 466 466 speak to barry. well worth going a bit further a field for it.
