I am running standard MK3 Zetec S 18" wheels - not sure of the offset but the tyres are 225/40/18. Tony do you know where I can get a kit? Cheers Daz

Hi Thanks for the welcome to the site As Eibach have had to develop a kit to sort this out have Ford recognised that there is a problem? Do even the brand new models with 18" alloys get this problem? I am interested in getting the kit as I am losing patience with it to the point I am being to want something else.

Hi Does anyone EVER manage to get even wear on a set of tyres on a Zetec S with 18" alloys? I had a new set of continentals fitted on the front. As it was driving straight I didnt have the tracking done for about 2 weeks after on the 5th March. I had a full 4 wheel tracking done and the wheels bead sealed at Ford, as the tyres CONSTANTLY went down. The tyres have stayed at the correct pressure since then -- so everything seams fine. In a word NO :mad: I now find (again) that the insides of the tyres are wearing faster that the outsides Do you recon it is due to a bad job of the tracking? Or does this always happen? If so how the hell does Ford get away with this? I am sick of paying £130ish per tyre just to have them wearing unevenly after only 6000 miles. Its getting to the point now where I will either just stick steels on it and have it look rubbish or get rid all together as I am that fed up with it. After years of having older cars and worn bushes etc causing problems and wearing tyres, this is the last problem I invisaged having at least on the older cars I could buy a pair for F1's for the price of 1 for the mondeo!!
