I've got a 94 Max and I love it, but I've got a question. Why do my wheels squeal why I make a turn. Has anyone else noticed this? What's up with mine? It happens a lot even at low speeds. Any input would be appreciated.

Thanks,

that's supposed to say "when I make a turn," not why I make a turn...

Check the air pressure in them. Should be around 29-32, or higher if you like it like that. Which tire is squealing? Inside, outside, front, rear?

The tires were just inflated yesterday, so that's not it. It seems to be the front tires, I think it's the left.
Thanks again

Some tires just squeal. Esp. Cheap tires. A really good set of performance tires Shouldn't squeal... If your tires are sqealing they are telling you that they are at their limits, so don't try to go any harder than you were when they squealed.

You might have your alignment checked. excessive toe out will make the inside tire squeal well before they reach their handeling limits.
