Ok, I have an 88 CRX DX w/a b16a installed. I am having problems now with tire wear. I don't burn out or go too nuts with the new engine and I noticed the other day that the inside of my front drivers side and the back passenger side is worn bald, the rest of the tires are ok. I have also noticed that the steering wheel shakes from time to time, depending on my speed and the faster i go it seems that it shakes faster. Any help of suggestions would be appreciated.

 

go get an alighnment! and about your steering wheel shaking go back under the car and double check that everything is tight. I mean everything... ball joints, steering arms, rims. but the alignment should help out alot.

 

Is your car lowered? A proper alignment will help a ton.

if the steering wheel shakes it is due to the rotors being out of round...take it somewehre and have them turn the rotors

Not necessarily. It could also be you have a bad cv joint/axle too. More than likely though it is just time to get an alignment.

 

you probably do need an alignment but the shaking c ould be due to your tires being out of balance

 

here another question regarding the same subject area

what if the car was gripping to every groove on the road like a jump or slide of the car would this mean the bearings are shot or the tie rods??

bearing usually make a sound right as the car is in motion

 

My car pulls to the right a hell of alot even with an allingment, but one of my flex joints is totally shot, maybe thats ur probleme too

 

The shaking could also be the tires being out of balance.

 

yea just go get an alignment

 

the shaking could be from a number of differant things. it could be as easy oas getting your tires balanced to some seriouse stering colomn problems. I recomend going undernieth and checking all of your steering components. make sure you dont have play in between parts. if you do fix it/replace it
.

 

if ur car is lowered u porb just need a camber kit....with the kind of wear u described u porb have a -4 camber
