Hi All,
This thread has made me feel slightly better about my situation.. Bought my Paj new and also came with Geolander G902, after 20k Km's they are finished. I have rotated all 5 tyres every 7500km, done numerous wheel alignment and balancing checks which don't seem to have helped. I'm a little concerned about the wheel alignment settings at ALL the tyre places I visited. Non of them have the settings for a 2012 Pajero, only for a Pajero Sport. Would a Gen 3 have the same wheel alignment settings as a Gen 4? Think its time to get a set of Cooper Discoveres and bank on their 85k mileage warranty...

Hi John
Irregular wear on the inside / outside of the tyre is a good sign that there something is mechanically out (alignment, shocks etc) and not a tyre defect.
I am interested to hear the results of the tyre expert as they can generally read a tyre like a crime scene expert.
While Yoki's do tend to wear a bit quicker than other tyres, this is due to a softer compound which ultimately aids in performance.

That's excessive even for geolanders.
AFAIK the settings for for all BK pajeros from 2007 are the same. Make sure they use that rather than pajero sport.
