camber wear how fast is going to screw my tires ? im about to drop my teg with some tein sping 1.7 and front back.. i guess what im trying to say it how fast will my tires go ?

[Nittanys1]

depends on a lot of factors. the type of tire you run, its tread wear, the amount of camber you'll have, they way you drive, tire inflation....etc... Just do it right and get a camber kit and put it on when you get your suspension installed.

Don't buy off brand suspension products, get the real thing like blox, skunk 2, omni power and ingalls.

^^ yups... those brands are cool.... but 1.7 inch isnt much to kill your tires. i have some cooooopers tucking tires and scrubbing for 4 months, maybe.. they looook brand new. it's still even. lol

With good alignment I do not see 1.7 as being a problem. Toe is much more damaging to tires.

[Nittanys1]

naw he should get a camber kit while at it.....the camber will make him run through tires. y not stop it before it starts...

[changaroo]

screw the camber it, its worthless.

what most people dont know is that its the toe that eats away tires, not camber.

take your car to a good alignment shop and get the toe zeroed out. dont buy into the whole camber kit bs.

[imbosile]

well i know from experience that my car ate through tires, until i got a camber kit installed

i'd definitely do it, i wish i had done it from the beginning.

[joesblk_teg]

get the nitto neogins my car is slammed and you cant even notice any ware on my tires that have been on for about 7k miles

comber doenst wear ****
TOe does
i have -5* of camber on my front wheels....and i dont have any unusual wear after 4 months

[Fr33way]

^^^

I have been anywhere from stock height to slammed with -3 camber, same wear with proper alignment. Only my experience.

[YokotaS13]

yeah, i have more camber in my front wheels, than my rear wheels.
and more than most people have in their rear wheels

camber is your friend.

[Fr33way]

^^^ Word, A32 multi-link ream beam != camber adjustable FTL.

[YokotaS13]

you can
me and a guy actually cut, angled and reweled the rear shafts to make his A32 camber....

[bigdare23]

Toe is the main problem with tire wear. Some negative camber is actually good for handling because when you turn more tread of the tire touches the ground

[GSRteg®]

I must agree camber is good.

[integra938]

anyone know that site that you can see how rims look on your car and also lower it ?.. i had it befor but i cant remember it

[SiRed94]

yeah 1.7 really isn't gunna affect camber much... however negative camber can cause extra wear because the weight of the car is resting on a smaller portion of the tire causing more stress on that area, rather than distributing the weight evenly across the entire surface area of the tire.... but personally, i love about -4 degrees of camber and don't give a damn if my tires suffer
