And as for the tread wear: ironically it is both front and rear, but the driver side is worse, because I abuse my tires getting on the freeway from Robb drive  Also, when I got an alignment last, the people at Big O (?) by Safeway on Mae Anne and McCarran said that they can't adjust the rear camber without an alignment kit, which I didn't have money for at the time. I don't remember what the specs of my alignment were at the moment, but it was pretty neg all the way around. The front slightly less than the rear tho. I wanna say -.8ish up front, -1.2 rear? They could check the rear, but not adjust it? Also seems weird that I could mess it up installing springs, but they can't fix it the way I messed it up? |
Neg. camber, assuming it's not more than -1.5 to -2 degrees isn't an issue regarding tire wear. However, couple it with toe out, and it'll murder the inside edge like you're seeing. I suggest you get a better alignment before your next set of tires, stressing 0 toe and make sure they give you a read-out. I suggest you have Nissan do it and request Cory as the tech. I know you're always saying how broke you are, but this will save you money in the long run.
Taking corners at speed will actually wear the outside shoulder, the inside shoulder, not so much.
You may want to bone up the
$16.95 and get these camber bolts for the rear, however, -1.2 in the rear is close to perfect for a daily driver sedan IMO, especially if you get like -1.8 in the front. But if you're lowered, I bet it's more than that (like -2), in which case, I'd get the camber bolts.
