Lately I get a skreech as if burning rubber when I corner or make a sharp turn. Any ideas? :sighg2:

I get that as well Nav, but thats because I about chewed the tread off my Yokos and I tend to lean on the gas a little in turns (cmon, only 5 points left on my license!). I think I am stepping up the tire though. Gonna have to go more rugged with winter coming up and me having moved into the hills.

What tires are you running? size? pressures? Mine used to squeal with the stock Bridgestones until I bumped the pressures over 38 psi. I routinely run my 265/60/18 Khumo's at 40 psi.

I second the belt. Turn your wheel over as far as you can while your parked and the engine is running and see if you get the same noise. If you do you need to check the tension on the belt.

no i know what you are talking about mine does the same thing. could it be the asphalt thou? mine only seems to do it on smooth surfaces. but yea mine does it when i turn the wheel all the way. even if i am barely moving so no im not peeling out.
