Both my front tyres are wearing on the outside edge. The n/s more then the o/s. Both front tyre pressures were low at about 29 ish. Now up to 36. Both front lower arms were replaced by LR in 2014 and car was on 126,000 and now on 152,000. Had a look and the bushes do look visibly ok with no signs of cracking or wear as such. Have got new tyres to go on and will get wheel alignment checked. Do you think it is worth changing arms again as don't want to junk new tyres as there not exactly cheap. Obviously am hoping it is just an alignment issue. What do the super knowledgable amongst you all think? 2006 TdV6 HSE.

Steering seems fine. The only thing I have done is change the n/s inner cv boot as was split and the old grease came out like liquid. Changed it with the diff end left in place so not transfer box oil. Probably not connected but worth mentioning. 2006 TdV6 HSE.

If your arms are good what about your track rods and ball joints the balls at both ends wear and affects tracking?
