oh and it has the 16" wheels on so expensive tyres so if its sortable it would be nice!

Tyre pressure correct ?? Is the alignmet/tracking out ?? Check the tyre pressure yourself & take it to get the tracking checked out

Yep it could wear out quicker if the tyre on that side is over inflated.

Drive on lots of roundabouts?

Check pressures, followed by alignment.

yup pressures are all correct, does no one else with a new clio have any problems with this then? is there even that much adjustment on the rear?

wheel alignment i would say. another thing to think about is were the tires changed at the same time?

Hi, I can hear an echo

as i said it came out of the showroom with new tyres on, will get her to go to one of my friendly inde's and gt the alignment checked, is that something that would be covered under wareenty or not?

yep our driving school ones are doing this too!! lucky our tyres are included in the payments for the cars though

could have had a tyre replaced due to a puncture?
