i recently got an alignment done and was told my rear tires will be wearing out fast. i just wanted some opinions if it is true? cause i had comptech on b4 and had none to absolute minmial tire wear. and i only lowered my ride about another .5 inch more than comptech. i have tein ss now.

here are the results:

front left: camber-0.8
toe 0.01
caster 3.5

front right: camber-1.0
toe 0.00
caster 3.2

rear left: camber-1.3
toe 0.09

rear right: camber-1.6

yer right rear is about 1 degree on slant. Did you by chance hit the back hard on a pothole or something?

It is minimal though, so there is nothing to worry about. I wouldnt do anything. Only if you notice sever wearing out marks on a side of your rear tires is when u worry. Right now you are good.

If you like the way the car sits now and don't want to raise it back up, then get a camber kit in the rear. The front are pretty much within spec, but the rears are pretty bad, and it will only get worse when you have people in the back or a heavy load in the trunk.

Rear camber kit should cost about 150 bucks or so, and is really easy to install if you're mechanically inclined; it should take no more than an hour at the most.
