2000 W210 Front Wheel Alignment

[ShinyF1]

I've just put 2 new tyres on the front end of my car [235/45 17s] as the outside edges had worn down quite nicely thankyou. I should have spotted it sooner but the car was tracking beautifully - dead straight.

Anyway I had the tyrefitters [Protyre in Slough] check and adjust the alignment using their techy equipment. The car now feels as if it is pulling slightly to the left. Before you ask yes I have tested this on a flat [not cambered] road to be sure.

Does anyone know if the correct setting has a natural bias to tend towards the nearside or should I expect it to track dead straight?

your tracking man should have techy specs to go with his techy kit.

your tyres are quite wide for the front of a 210.

there has been some discussion on this forum about that.

They are standard for the 17" Avantgarde wheels - mine too has 235/45 ZR17 tyres and I have to admit it is very slightly "camber concious" - my tyres have about 6mm of tread left.
