Just got an alignment and new tires, I recently raised my car back up for the winter and noticed crazy front tire postive camber tire wear. When I got my alignment print off sheet it said that I had negative camber. So would my toe being off by more than a degree cause the tire wear. And know that its been fixed should my tires not wear down anymore. Any insight would be great. Thanks.
left toe before was 1.58 right toe before was 1.77
left after .04 right after .03

 

YES!

that was crazy toe OUT you had. but you said you raised it, so then you had crazy positve toe, and then got OUTER tire wear.

more PROOF that toe wears out tires, its NOT camber!

thanks for sharing

now that you got an alignment, youll be fine. just remember you gotta get your car aligned whenever you change your ride height.

I run zero toe in the rear and 0.45* toe out per tire in the front on my crx. It's got -1.8* camber on each wheel. Uneven tire wear = almost nil.

 

cool thats what i figured. thanks for insight yo~!

If the outside edges are worn then he had positive toe issues (toe-in), which is in line with raising a car up, the toe will toe-in as you're raising this type of suspension, and toe-out as you lower it.
