Default Camber Kit

I noticed that the inside of my tire has worn out and my tires stick out like crazy, they have an angle to it...what are the best camber kits to use? i need both front and rear and what brand

skunk2 makes a nice one, not all cars can adjust rear camber though, then again there are some ways around that using shims

Did you lower your car and not get an alignment? Camber itself will not kill your tires unless it's crazy, toe will though.

My car had the same problem..i thought it was because the custom springs..so i went and got my 96 civic put to near stock height..I used struts and spring from a 95 civic sedan...worked fine..but the wheels still stuck out...bad crooked...so a month later after i really bugged me i was loosing tires every two weeks...literally...burning off tread from the inside..so i took it to get aligned about a month ago..and the guy tugged the wheel and was like it's not the alignment..the alignment aint gonna help...so it had to be the camber..I was going with some Skunk 2 cambers front and rear..but my car didn't last that long..get those cambers man..you're civic will love u for it..

I have crazy camber with even wear. You need to have the toe set to 0, which is more critical the more camber you have. Camber can accelerate toe (uneven, inside) wear, but doesn't cause it.
