2nd rebuild '05 TL
My brother had my current 05 tl back in 09 and parted it out because of college.
Here I am 5 years later and its about time to bring it back to life lol The car as it sits right now is on function form coils. It also has window visors and a race pulley(only part my brother couldnt get off).
Stay tuned for more progress

I don't think you need a camber kit. Looks like you need an alignment. Your toe is out of whack.
Then again, judging by the complete lack of tread anywhere on your tires, it looks like you got some good mileage out of them. Even with and alignment or camber kit, you wouldn't get any more mileage out of those tires. Well, you shouldn't anyway.
Also lol at you for wanting to buy performance and aesthetic mods when your tires are balder than a bald old man. Need to reassess your priorities, my man.
Safety > looks and speed

Fair enough, but a good set of tires with a nice looking tread pattern can do wonders for driving and for aesthetics. Best of both worlds!
Those who know, know, when it comes to tires and cars. I always laugh when I see a modded car running on "el cheapo" tires.

I kinda like it on the stock wheels, to be honest. Maybe throw some small spacers to pop the wheels out a bit. Looks good! Glad you got new tires
