Consumer Description

I NOTICED ALL TIRES WERE WORN ON INSIDE PAST THE TREAD AT 14,000 MILES ON CAR. I REPLACED ALL 4 TIRES AND TOOK THE CAR FOR ALIGNMENT. MECHANIC POINTED OUT THAT THE FRONT TIRES WERE HITTING THE STRUT MOUNTS WHEN HITTING A BUMP WHEN SPRINGS COMPRESSED OR DURING HARD CORNERING. A GROOVE WAS ALREADY WORN IN MY NEW FRONT LEFT TIRE. ALIGNMENT WAS WITHIN SPECS. I WENT TO DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT MORE CAMBER WOULD KEEP FROM RUBBING. DEALERS ALIGNMENT READINGS WERE DIFFERENT THAN ALIGNMENT SHOP. I HAVE SINCE DISCOVERED MANY OTHER 2004-2006 GTO OWNERS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR
