[QUOTE="scott degroot, post: 923682, member: 66039"] Alignment DOES NOT CAUSE CUPPING. Cupping is cause by the suspensions inability to keep the tire firmly planted on the ground. The usual cause is weak shocks or struts followed by tire inbalance. An alignment issue will not cause th etire to not be planted on the ground unless it is so drastically off that the vehicle is literally not driveable. I hope that everybody understands that tire cupping is when you can run your hand in the direction of tire tread and feel high and low spots, also refered to as chopping. [/QUOTE]
