I had the rear tyres replaced today - wear was pretty uniform at 2.4mm left on the outer and 1.8 on the inner, and they tyres were on when i got it 7000 miles ago.
I had the geometry checked on a Hunter machine, and it was so way out they removed everything and checked again, and got the same results.
Basically the toe figures were pretty much exactly double what the database said was maserati spec. Front toe was 22 and 20 minutes (spec is 9 +/- 1) and rear toe was -29 and -12 (spec -9 +/-1).
As the front ones were so completely similar and double the original figures, we figured it might be too much to be a coincidence, so left them alone wondering if it was a common change to improve turn in or something (and it was nearly 5:30 by then).
I've had a search and a look on the interweb and can't see anything about this, so is it just that the car is out of true by the same amount?
Thanks
