Hi everyone! i drive a 96 ek hatch, due to the fact that i dont drive the car during winter yesterday i took it out for a drive. when i got home i noticed that the camber on the rear right hand side tire was diffrent than the left one. The inner thread of the tire is touching the ground and onthe left side it seems like its more in the middle. Any idieas?

 

bump!! for a answer

 

Need more info. Suspension mods? Wheel/tire size? Car ever been wrecked? Last alignment?

 

This more than anything.

 

oh sorry dude! suspension is skunk 2 ( i think) there is no camber kit, but both rear wheels have negatice camber. wheel is 15 inch on 205 thats all i know about the tires and wheels, the car has a clean title so i dont think it was in any accident.

 

Clean title means nothing. My car has a clean title and has been in a few fender-benders. If it's lowered there's going to be negative camber. more so in the rear on 96-00 Civics. If it's excessively more on one side than the other, there could be bent or damaged suspension components.

 

hmm interesting.. the car is lowerd, do you think if i should get a wheel alignment?
what do you mean by bent or damaged components?

 

If it's lowered you should get an alignment.If you don't have a camber kit I would buy one to adjust the camber.

 

If the camber was fine before, then you probably have different tire pressures, which will make it look uneven.
