Hi MPStrav, may I refer you to the sticky threads located below as this has been conversed a fair bit before
handling-wheels-tyres
GEN II and already new tyres???
Happened to me too, although I think the Beaurepairs dude was a bit keen for a sale. His said that both of my rear tyres had inside wear on them and he wouldn't put them back on.
So I changed all 4 and went Sumitomo HTR Z III. Someone recommended them. So fat they have been good and a bit quieter than the Dunlops. Cost me $246 each.
There is a fair bit of neg camber on the back of the gen 2.
Wouldnt surprise me that its eating up the tyres.
What is your budget? That might give people an idea of the type of tyre you are after.
who the f#$3 is he to think he wont put them back on??? IF i was you i would have told him where to go and taken my business else where ! absolutely hate business who love to rip customers off and even more ones who threaten customers with this type of bullshit..
even if the tyres where absolutely bold it is up to you to decide what you want to do? what if you are struggling for cash and cant afford to buy new tyres

i dunno know about that mate... its not like he brought the car in for a roadworthy inspection? .. also any paperwork he receives from them i dont think would state the car is safe or not safe..?
as i said in my orginal post what if you cant afford tyres what are they going to do keep hold of your car..

They can not repair an un roadworthy tyre or sell you unroadworthy tyres but they should not have an issue if they just take your tyre off and then put it back on and do not charge you for anything.
I am also at the stage where I need to look at tyres. I am at around 25,000Km
Mate clearly you have no idea, its not about threatening customers . . . its usually about protecting idiots and other road users from morons driving cars with unroadworthy & dangerous tyres. Customers with and attitude like yours really make life hard for people trying to do their job. Why should a tyre retailer be liable for you killing someone because your a tight arse.
Thats not to say that the original poster is an idiot and good choice on buying the Sumitomos Yeldarb
who are you calling a tight ass!!!! did i ever say I would drive on tyres that arent legal????
the OP said both "of my rear tyres had inside wear " he never actually said they where unroadworthy & dangerous tyres as you stated ?? AND neither would i recommend any one to leave that type of tyre on any car !!
