how many mile? what's the threadwear rating?

how many camber/toe you degree you have?

all season/summer tires have nothing to do with it.

I think he is saying if he doesnt do a camber kit for a year or two would his tires last.


- That all depends on how many miles you are going to be putting on the tires, how you drive, what kind of tires you have..

you should be fine with a good alignment.

my setup is for the curves though. toe out/negative camber.

225/40/r18s. sticks like glue.
