This post comes at a good time. I've just replaced front tyres after 10k motorway miles as the inside edge (unknown to me) had scrubbed through to canvas.
I thought the problem would be tracking related but it appears maybe not.
My question is, should I be looking to adjust the camber to compensate for tired springs or replace the springs?
This is were i feel really sorry for Omega owners.
The reason for the problem is incredibly hard to explain but the solution is simple.
Owners who experience this historic type of tyre wear do
not need to replace the coils..... Ok in an ideal world i would say you do, but in the real world it's the position of the cars weight at the tyres contact patch that needs to change.
Luckily this is possible since the camber is naturally adjustable on the Omega. The million dollar question is to where?
wim has written a progressive table for the Omega, researched over many years.... I will not display this table but i will help any members out of sight (email-pm) with the positions.
In time this will become public knowledge anyway via members exposing the calibration positions but for now i hope this insight and offer to help personally will help those who feel distressed in this arena.
