Hi Ainar

That exactly what have happened, even if they were well experienced in my opinion, no one in there had a clue what I was talking about when talking about constant S.
Looks like I will have to go to my VAG guys which are 2 hours drive across London, but I don't mind it if driving 8 there, but I do mind traffic jams.

I know what you are saying about toe wearing both sides, but don't forget that in Dynamic car is 35mm lower than stock setting in Comfort, so with my approx measurements that is about 5mm camber change ''in'' at the top of the tyre.

If you look at the picture once again, you will notice that 80% of tyre is almost brand new as I've done only 2,3-3k miles on them so far, where the inner bit shows carcass already !!!!!

How effective on inner tyre wear can be constant S??
