there is a great write up that talks about how camber isnt what makes your tires wear out on one side on here somewhere. so all the people saying his tires will be gone in no time might wanna read that. and OP, car looks pretty good , not feeling the mud flaps at all, needs an aspec kit, maybe some type s rear sidemarkers.
Shouldn't believe everything you read here on AcuraZine

do you have something similar for the TOE ?

Toe will wear the tires out the worse, as well as the fastest. When the toe is off, the car is basically dragging the tires sideways. It causes tire wear and a effect that is known as "Feathering".
While listening in class, I remember my instructor saying this so I wrote it down as a note
"Every 1/8th of an inch toe is off is equivalent to dragging the tire sideways 22ft for every 1 mile"
Ask and you shall receive...

Little bit of negative camber is good in terms of handling.
Little bit of camber won't effect tire wear that much either.
and car looks good! a-spec would set it off

If it's legal in your state than go for it. If it was legal in texas I would have done it.
The people on here that have their windshield tinted opted for 50% tint. Looks good. From the outside it makes it hard to see inside the car, but from the inside it keeps a good amount of heat out and you can still see just fine. Or so they say.
I always wanted the mercedes-benz style tint on my front windshield. The one that comes on the S-Class. It looks purplish/bluish hue. Looks nice

am planning on 50%, that will look good and still have enough light coming in....anything less than 20%, will make it a bish to see outside....
