Camber Issues, help!

**jbrown7815** · 09-22-2008 07:24 PM

So I am slammed on Koni Coilovers. I have 19" wheels.

Been running BFgoodrich KDW2s... 235/35/19s

Well the inside of my rear left tire is THREADED bad. Like I probably shouldn't drive much more..

My right rear looks fine.

How can I fix this, prevent more?

tires prolly have 10-15k max...

thanks!

well obviously your alignment is off so you should start there.

dont see what that pic proves

Is that tire slanted in REAL bad?

If not that, MOST LIKELY, the rear toe is off.

Toe is the #1 tire-killer

did you do an alligment after the coils were done.

I don't have pic of wear right now.

Yeah didn't get an alignment after getting tires put on. Figured that was issue.

Even after I got an alignment my front camber was a little off. Just keep rotating the tires for best wear. And go to a place that knows what they are doing.

I have been having the same issue. The rears come with stock camber adjustments, but the fronts only have stock toe adjustments. No one besides KMAC makes anything to adjust front camber, but I haven't heard any good things about that company.

Let me know what you find out and I'll keep you posted cause I just put goodyear eagle f1's on my car and really don't want to lose them as quickly as I did my previous tires.

Get an alignment. A large portion of wear issues associated to camber are actually caused by toe-in.

Your extra low ride height is exacerbating the camber problem as well. +1 on the alignment as it's $ extremely well spent IMHO.

What's a good price to pay for an alignment?

**BOPOH** · 09-23-2008 02:21 PM

i just got both of my audi's alignments paid $80 per car, but i got it done at Tuffy

I had one at a well trusted tire/alignment shop near me and it was 120. It's hard for me to trust anyone, so I researched a ton before taking it anywhere and only felt comfortable there.
