[QUOTE="singlespeed, post: 57272, member: 264"] The inside edge being worn, implies your running a shed load of camber or the tracking (toe angle) is out. Guessing your not intentionaly running increased camber with a top adjustable mounts or offset bolts between the hub carrier and shockabsorber, so this would imply something is worn or loose. Strut top mounts (bush and bearing assembly at the top of the shockabsorber), wishbone mounting bushes (two bushes mounting the A-arm onto the subframe) and the bottom ball joint (ball joint between A-arm and hub carrier) all control the toe and camber angles of the front suspension. Whilst the toe is also controlled by the track-rod end which is the ball joint on the end of the steering rack. The knocking could be unrelated to the tyre wear, which may just be the steering out of allignment due to a pothole type impact, but more than likely the it will be related. [/QUOTE]
