Default had my alignment done, here are my specs let me know what you think.

front left
camber -2.0
caster 1.1
toe before -.69
toe after .06

front right
camber -2.4
caster 0.5
toe before .31
toe after 0

rear left
camber -1.2
toe before .39
toe after .07

rear right
camber -1.6
toe before .10
toe after .09

my toe was all messed up, i dont think Im gonna get a camber kit, I really dont want to deal with it. it will be interesting to see how my tires wear... also not sure how I feel about front left toe being .06 and the right being 0 btw this was after dropping my 4dr gsr about 2 inches...

hr springs on stock shocks for now, i got it done at firestone for 149 (lifetime alignment) my tires might wear out, i dont really care cause I got the wheels and tires for 60 bucks. from what Ive read since my toe is set properly theres a chance they will wear pretty well. we will see.. if they go too fast I might end up getting a camber kit. but from what Ive read theres a lot of hassle with slipping etc... its just one more part I would like to not have on my suspension, something else to break...

With toe in check most have said there is little problem with premature wear,
unless you are lowered more than 2".
Do you Sport or race springs?

Im pretty sure they are sport, but my car is pretty slammed for sport. I think its because they are for the 2 door and my car is a 4 door. not sure though. I know Im at about a 2" drop in the front and probably about 1.8 in the rear a little over the specs of the sport springs

oh, also. I paid 100 bucks for the springs and the install. Im pretty poor right now so Im just lucky to have the car lowered at this point. it beats stock.

nope, I have more negative camber than that, and my tires lasted me another 25K miles after lowering. I would look into that front right caster, though. Has your car ever been hit on the front right anywhere? Spec is 1.1 I believe, and both sides of my car are in spec. Might want to check it out.

No his tires will not wear out at 5k.

Your chamber isn't bad. You should do fine without a chamber kit. Monitor the wear and if it gets bad get a chamber kit.

neg 2ish for camber isnt too bad just watch your tires and keep em rotated and you should be dandy. Racing will tear em up but reg driving naw.

Caster does next to nothing on a front wheel drive car. I wouldn't like all the negative camber myself, but it won't kill your tires all that fast. Toe kills tires 7x as fast as a like error in camber, so as long as your tires are toed ahead or slightly cross-eyed as they are your tire wear won't be all that bad.

I hit a curb really fast, and had a realignment done. Heres mine:

Front left
-1.0 Camber
-1.9 Caster
.05 Toe

Front Right
-2.1 Camber
-1.5 Caster
.05 Toe

Rear Left
-0.4 Camber
0.15 Toe

Rear Right
-0.8 Camber
0.14 Toe

I had it done at Town Fair Tires...He said to have the engine cradle checked for mounts...Will this wear my tires?
