Default - Camber tire wear

How bad is tire wear with a -3 camber 0 toe in the front? What is the official recommendation to minimize the issue.

if you get that much camber, just make sure you drive it like you're supposed to.

Even then you'll likely see some increased wear on the inside shoulder from street driving.

Lol, thanks. Just want to start using the V710's the way they want to be used. Stuck with 225/45/17's for now. Running -3 0 toe in front & -1.3 0 toe rear. Car sure turns a lot sharper now. Takes getting used to. These cheap Dunlops don't like it though.

Default tire whare

Here is the deal jason. The front of this car sucks for not bing able to have to much Caster. You have to realize that by increasing the camber, you have to have a good in between with the caster setting on the car.

These cars only have like maybe 3 deg max of caster on it. (SHITTY)

If you could up in caster, it will change the geomotry enough to not kill the inside of your tires. But for now, you should back it off to about 2 deg - camber in the front. And try to add a little toe out in the front, like a 1/16".

Remember to put something on the drivers side simulating your wheight when doing the adj's.
