Diff/ TireSpec question
Hey CL members i recently had to replace my front tires from 225/35/20 to 225/30/20 and my rears are 245/35/20 on my CV1 would that affect my Differential of my car in any way ? if so can anyone recommend me the right tire size for the wheels. when i bought the wheels and tires i bought it used and had 75 percent thread on it but i guess ever since i was using it i didnt realize that my tire was almost going to pop but i got new ones finally. Here is the picture of the old tire.
Thankyou i will do that when i get the chance and also i came across another issue... I got a an awd light on since i got the 245/35/20 in the rear and 225/30/20 in the front and now i am about to sell those tires cause its causing that issue.
Ya you need to fix the rear toe, its because our rear chamber isnt adjustable. I have SPC bars on my AWD, FIGS and Megan look like they used heim joints. I wouldn't recommend that for a daily driver, as after time dirt gets lodged in heim joints and they end up squeaking which is why I ran SPC that a the only ones that ran tie rod ends, and rubber bushings on their links.
I'd also like to note, in case you didn't do this... But our cars require frequent tire rotations (left and right side changes). So that the tire gets a chance to wear out more even 
Your tire wear, however, looks pretty bad in the middle!

yeah my wheels are rotated often like at every 5000 miles so idk and like i had said before the tires had wear on them alread when i got it so...
your light is probably going off because the 225/30 is way off. the 225/35 is closer but its still off. if you have AWD you should really get them as close as possible. why are you not running the same tire up front that your running in the rear? 245/35/20 is not uncommon for people on here to run. i wouldnt suggest it only for the fact that in the front it will rub on really sharp turns.

Also Here is the camber and toe adjustment sheet that i got from my friend who works at merchants
Because of it being a 9 and dont want too much rubbing in the front i had 245/35/20 on the front with it being on my 8.5s which rubbed like crazy when i took turns and stuff also i had 225/35/20 on which is in the picture has got worn out and was working fine with that combo also i spoke to someone at Vossen wheels and they told me not to go too crazy with the setup on tires and to keep it as close as possible which would not affect the diff.
I was running 225/35/20 before and didnt face any problem but do you think that would cause any problem tho i am not too sure on 245/30/20 in the fronts cause i dont want to end up buying something and then have to sell it again....
