could be-just passed a vsr at lexus two falkens on front 7mm tread across the tyres
rears are roadstars or some other cheapo but both 7-8mm tread across all areas.
been told it could be arb bushes which also makes sense and something else-strut mounts maybe-- i dont know but arb bushes i might get before i go to wim as theyre only £40 depending on what tonys fitting charge will be.

I agree that sorting out your geo will probably make a major improvement. My car's stability on the motorway was transformed by a trip to WIM, I couldn't believe the difference.

As has been said, they can check out if other bits on the suspension are a problem too.

IS200 Turbo project now just about complete ! See my thread here and leave your comments.
Now running standalone Syvecs ECU and no stock ECU !
