    Hi

    As the title suggests all four Continental tyres on my 2005 GTTDi 4 motion are scrubbing just on the outer edges 20 to 30mm wide area, the rest of the tyres are approx 7 mmm depth

    I have recently bought the car and certain issues are coming to light. checking through the FSH, this issue croped on previous MOT's as advisors. surely this can't be an anomaly with this type of vehicle as it would cost mega bucks in tyres

    The car is accident free, low miles and really straight.

    Many thanks Ian

    Sounds like it just needs a full wheel alignment doing...
