No Brizzle- but they should have the same kit so should be ok? |

FYI Chris used to run Pro Tyre in Glos and left taking all the decent staff with him... That is why we use them...

Thanks Craig, I'm leaning towards Chris Mullins, as its slightly closer in anycase. |

Just be mindful that "some" wear on the outer edges is probably normal and NOT always a sign (on its own) that you need an alignment. Many RR's (older L322s could be dreadful) can be quite harsh on the outer edge of the front tyres particularly the passenger side thanks to our wonderful roundabouts with a big heavy car. |

Thats an interesting point, I'll be keen to see the pre & post alignment settings to see how far out they may be and how normal edge wear is on a correctly setup L405. |

But if you keep your tyres rotating, side to side - front to back etc etc... Then they should run out quite flat and not feather the edges... I have several 405 customers running 40k+ miles on a set of tyres... |

Elite Tyres at Reading. They do all the Aston and Lambo work for Pangbourne and did my 20 inch rims with grabber AT3’s. They are fantastical about tyres and alignment. Really good 👍👍 3.0 VSE - 2015MY

Just to revive this thread, had an alignment this morning at Chris Mullins in Gloucester, efficient service and as nothing actually needed adjusting as it turned out, only charged me £15 all in.
