Put the 15's on and get the tracking done.

Yup tracking will sort it - should be 30 quid or so at most garages. also chances are they wont be balanced either so get that done at the same time

Re: 15 inch alloys
when you had the tracking done they probably didnt do it correctly or never adjusted the camber.
sounds like your running too much positive camber if the outsides are wearing

Re: 15 inch alloys
with et 35 you either need camber witch ruins tryes quicker then normal or to roll your arches and get spaces specially if u want to drop it
