Cupping tire questions
Cupping tire questions
I just noticed my tires are cupping in the
inside. So I thought my shocks/struts might
be bad, but they are not. I did the bounce
test and it is stiff as it can be. Both
tires are cupping inside. What causes this
problem. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Tires are Bridgetones 730s

Tire pressures are checked bi-weekly
and my konis are still stiff ...
Others mentioned about alingment and I
will have it check tomorrow.
Any more ideas?

Re: Tire pressures are checked bi-weekly
What's the size of your tire? What pressure?

Re: Re: Re: Tire pressures are checked bi-weekly
tire pressure is close enough...the bounce test isn't really a good test. I would replace the struts regardless. My GF's car passed the bounce test no problem eventhough her tires were cupped. I replaced the struts and they even seem okay out of the car. How many miles do you have on those struts? If it's more than 60K, I would just replace them anyway.
