hey guys...im at 15100 miles on my advans...i instaled s tech springs and totally killed my tires....the inner wall of the tire totally ripped off...think its toe in or out?....im sure that i need a camber kit....any body else had this happen to them?

 

did you have the car re-aligned after the springs settled? i'd say a camber kit is a must, especially w/ the S-Techs.

 

I don't think camber is an issue for you. After installing springs the toe will change when the car is at the lower ride height (I think it adds toe out). Camber change will be very little due to the strut type suspension. Get some new tires and take your car for an alignment. Have the camber set at the lower setting, this should net around -1 degree and toe set to factory spec. Rear camber can be pulled back into spec also.

I'm driving around with -3 degrees camber frt and -2 rr and no adverse effects on tire wear. This is b/c I run zero toe all around.

 

well...the update is...im due for new tires friday morning. im getting good year "triple tread" tires...they look very good...

and they are in the tire rack website....they rated all 9's out of 10's...so a damn good tire...ok and im not familiar with the whole toe and camber set ups...i going to a shop here and the guy said "for toe in and out...front and rear it will b $80. for the whole suspension set up wich includes ..camber/strut/toe/alignment for $130" the thing is...mistsu did a alignement and balance on wednesday so i dont need a new one right? i dont want to pay "tire rack-and the toe shop" for aligment if im already aligned...i need to align my front tires to the rears...so thats toe right?...i mean i killed my advans inner wall
