Camber wear with ITR springs!???
I own an 01' gsr and am getting alot of camber wear on ITR springs with KYB AGX shocks. I'm currently running yokohama es100s in 205/50/15. I've already gotten an alignment after the install and the springs have actually been on for over 3 years. So I've had this problem for a very long time but just ignored it!
Does anyone else running this set up have this problem? ITR springs only lower our cars about an inch and I can't figure out why I'm having camber problems. The car pulls to the left and the front driver side tire wears the most.
Is there a specific spring that goes on the driver side? BTW...I rotate my tires every 3k so my tires would last longer. I know I shouldn't be having this problem...
Please help and thanks in advance!

Re: (Vi3tboy)
Yeah I think I'm going to get another alignment. It's been about a year since the last one. Does anyone know a good alignment place in Houston? Should I just bring it to an NTB or something? Also, since I'm on ITR springs would it help to tell them to put it to ITR specs?
Would the settings on my shocks have anything to do with the tire wear? I'm running 2 in front and 3 in rear...
Thanks for the replies!

Es100's tend to wear on the insides a bit more, even with perfect alignment settings...it has to do with the construction of the tire and tread, and materials used. the toe changes that occur during jounce and normal turning conditions play a big role too.

Your toe is probably out of spec because the alignment after installation wasn't done right. I have a hard time believing that the camber would be affected enough to be out of spec with a drop that minimal.
