Steering issue and tyres? help needed

[mohzsin]

Salam everyone,

I recently installed 16's in civic 95 with 205/50/16 second hand kabli tyres after complete suspension overall including shocks.
Now the issue is right front tyre touches fender when gone through speedy bump but left doesnt. I took the car to alignment center, they said right side camber is out due to which steering speedly turns to right side and steering is kinda hard. Anyway i got it checked from bluearea and sultan ka kho alignment centre, they all said that "is civic mei camber setting nahi hoti we have to get the spandal or something heated and then we have to bend it,uske ilawa koi haal nahi.

So guys i m confuse should i go for that option?
1- Is it the only solution for camber settings?
2- Do tyres play role in hard steering? Should i replace tyres with new?

Secondly when i start the car after 2-3hrs and drive it feels like some tyre is punctured n the drive is bumpy until i accelerate.

Kindly guys help me out, i have to go to lahore and currently its impossible to go on this car.

Thanks in advance.

The last line indicates your tires are old and have lost most of their rubber characteristics. Change them ASAP.

The stock size on 95 was 165(?), so yes, 205 will get the steering stiffer as more surface area is touching the ground.

Thanks for the reply. Tyres are kabli and with the manufacturing date of 2006 but they r like brand new.

Before these rims, i had 15inch rims with 205/55/15 yokohama S-drive tyres and i had no issue seriously and yes car was lil bit lowered too.

since the diameter of the tyres/rims increased, space/gap is less now.
the tyre hits the mudguard from right because right shock is probably weak!

and bigger tyres made the steering heavy. if u change with new, same size, wont make steering light! wider bigger tyres and rims puts load on steering and suspension
