« on: August 11, 2008, 04:49:04 PM »
Dear all,

Like to check if anyone of you has this problem of the rear wheels not vertically straight? Or rather its like slanted out? I just noticed mine last nite....haha. Like to know if its the design of latio or isit a cause for concern?  ;D

Perfectly normal. No cause for concern.   ;D

The illusion of "slanted" wheels is due to the curvy nature of the wheel arch.

Yes, 101% normal.  ;D

Observe other Latios if you are still doubtful.

slanted is normal. cos this will make ur tyre wear off evenly... if urs is vertically straight then ur tyre will wear off more on the outside....

Dear Brothers,

I went down to Lok Yang to clear my doubts and Nor told me that its normal for the rear wheels to be slanted.  :thumbsup: smething about the camber being slanted inwards haha not very sure also
