Bozzie Posted February 10, 2020 Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 Hi Group I'm loving my new (to me) Evora but have a question.... When I maneuver IE reverse or drive in and out of a parking space I get some wheel feedback and a scrubbing noise from the front tyres. It really just feels like like the tyre treads are rubbing against the road surface. I really put it down to the light weight at the front of the car and I recall both my Elise's 20 years ago had similar characteristics but to a lesser extent, but I just want a proper heads up! 2014 Evora S, 4500 miles on P-Zero Corsas Thanks Bozzie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bozzie Posted February 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 Ackerman steering... yes that rings a bell now and I googled it. Seems Pirelli P Zeros increase the effect too!! Thanks everyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EGTE Posted February 12, 2020 Report Share Posted February 12, 2020 Pirellis seem really prone to this, especially in the winter. Wish my fronts were wear our quicker, so I can change them to Michelins 😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
