Default Camber Kit???

I was takeing my wheels off today to put on the snow tires and I noticed that the tires are wering down more qucickly on the inside edge. Would a camber kit help this? If so which one would you recomend? (this will be going on a 2000 SI)

The edges of the right side tires are wearing down more quicky than the left ones, could this be an alingment problem? The car feels fine when driven and, it doesn't pull one way or the other.

Thanks for your help.

Get a SPC Camber kit and get an alignment and everything will be A-OK

My favorite out of all (and we have sold and installed many) is the Skunk2. Priced reasonably, it offers more adjustment than the Progress ball joint. The SPC kit is entirely too bulk and heavy (unsprung weight = bad), and the Ingalls kit is a little more expensive. All in all, the Skunk2 is the best overall value, in my opinion.

Get your car aligned first and ask for a printout. This should tell you if your camber, toe, etc. are within spec.

Yep, that thing is way too bulky and heavy.
