My front tyres are wearing badly on the inside, are there different wheel alignment settings for 255/45×17 tyres?
I do not know about different adjustment settings being required for different size tyres, as I prefer to run the original 15 inch rims and 215/60 tyres (P6000). However, a special attention must be paid to any changes in ride eight, caused e.g. by the fitment of aftermarket springs. The standard wheel alignment settings are referenced to the original ride height of 194.4 mm (7.6 in) front and 251.7 mm (9.9 in) rear when measured from “the ground to the centre of the lower suspension arm mounting bolts” for the front and from “the ground to the centre of No. 2 lower suspension (rear) arm mounting bolt” at the rear. It is clear that different ride height will have an effect on the proper wheel alignment figures, even if it has not be quantified/documented.
