Subject: Re: stability of 9000 Aero


I have a tire problem with my 9000CSE. It seems to wear unevenly on the left rear tire. Dealer says bad tire not wheel alignment. Replaced original set of Pirellis prematurely for this reason. Vibration gets really bad when tires are out of balance. The 9-5 cannot be compared to the 9000.
