Default Since I lowered my car the inside of my tires are wearing what can I do?

I have recently put some racing springs in my 98 SH and ever since then the inside of my tires have been wearing what can I do to fix this? I also have aftermarket 17's with 40 series tires if that makes any difference.

first off how low is the car, and second, go buy a camber kit.

Get a 4 wheel alignment first. Have the shop print your specs out for you. If after an alignment the car is still considerably out of factory alignment spec, then get a camber kit. Then you need to get it aligned once again after the camber kit is on.

I like NTB for alignments because they will realign your car for free within 5000mi of your last alignment there.

you can solve these problems sometimes w/ out a kit.. When you lower the car, you also change the toe alignment as well, that will eat it off faster than camber..
