it wont "even out" whats already uneven.

but an alignment is necessary to ensure your tires wear evenly from the start.

you wasted your money getting a camber kit and not even an alignment. you just needed an alignment to correct your toe.

true but is the toe adjustable? the camber kit came with the car. i can see your point though. thanks for the reply's, i'll get the alignment done.
