LOL, same size wheels and tyres though. And same country. And I assume same weight and weight distribution. Odd.

Yea Mike but your stealer knows you're a pimp and you always carry a dead ho or three in the boot that's why you need more pressure in your tyres.

Update:

Tyres all have 40psi in them. My Sticker was rippped hence didn't see the 21 bit.....Had alignment done at kwikfit, And it's still the same :( it was tuned today and while it was on dyno you could see the drivers front wheel shaking! Badly buckled! So now have just book tht in to have straightened out. Then once that's done if the torque steer is still there then it's time to try find a alignment specialist.

Do u think that the buckle could be causing my torque steer? Like when flooring it the wheel is wobbleing that much it's not keeping flat on the ground! ?

Did a search and seen loads of guys having problems with the buckled wheels on these. Wonder if the hole torque steer problems are all down to buckled wheels!

Did you get Kwikfit to dial out the rear toe in, rather than just rest it to 'factory'
