Tire whine, normal, or alignment (camber) issue?
 

Hi Guys,

I rotated my tires... I previously had a different set of tires in the front (Yoko somethings) Kumo in the back... now the Kumo's are in the front,the noise (tire whine) is significantly louder... significantly louder, loud enough that I can't talk on my cell phone without people asking me where I am.

I have to mention tho, the rotation was long over due...

Someone, over the phone, told me, your tires could be scrubbing (due to camber issus). The car is lowered, it's been years, never had an alignment before.

Anyone in Mississauga wanna go for a spin and hear this?

I've been out of the car scene for a while, so I'm not sure what is normal.

Thanks in advance

Camber wear could be the issue for the noise but also tons of factors the tire itself that brand could be loud from factory you just didn't hear it previously since they were in the back.

I suggest an alignment it wouldn't hurt anyways since you said you haven't done it...you'll be surprised to see the numbers.

How much has the car been lowerd and did you install a camber kit?

Also check your tire pressure.
