alignments

How often do you guys get your alignment checked?

I had mine done right after my H&R sport springs about a year and half ago but recently realized that my tires were wearing unevenly. I thought my camber was off but when I took it to the alignment place, they told me my camber was fine and that the front tires were toed-in which caused the premature wear (on the inside).

Does this toed-in thing happen often? Is it because I hit every pothole in town?

In the end, I had to buy 4 new tires but at least I didn't have to buy a camber kit.

Well 2 things factor in here... #1 you clearly said you hit every pothole... hmmm.. If I was you I would get an alignment every oil change then... along with rotating your tires.. #2, your set-up is not low enough for a Camber kit?... you better check again... I thought the CompTech's were the only drop that did not need one.. If you got 4 bad tires some bell should be going off in your head telling you something is wrong with your set-up.
