Mine did that after messing with suspension. i fiddled with it for ages, then gave up and went for a drive. looked after and it had all settled out by itself. Lesson - give it a try and have a look ;-)

Very nice. Loving the tyres, got the same on mine.

A lot of folks on Landys, Wranglers, etc complain about the Dynapro RT03 as wearing too quickly. Not a concern on a vehicle as light as a Jimny. Mine have been going strong for 40-50000 miles and still have a lot of life left in them. What makes them wear really fast on the heavier vehicles is that they are pretty soft (i.e. have a low durometer rating). But for the Jimny this just means they're extra tacky / grippy on the harder stuff, so have good grip for an MT on tar.
