    Smile Rear Tyre Wear

    Ive just traded my GTI mk4 chipped for a Mk5 Diesel. During the 170000 km plus & 6 yrs I had to replace the rear tyres 5 times. They wear like the rear shockers are worn out. I replaced the shocks using different types 3 times.....VW answers were 'I drive with an empty car causing the rear tyres to unload & skip along'..... causing a scalloping effect. My brother who owns a 2000 v6 Passat has the same problem. He is a very 'soft' driver & no way would he drive hard enough to lift a back wheel. Can anyone enlighten me on this subject??? Bazz
