I have an '08 GSR, lowered about an inch on swift springs. Enkei RPF1's, 18x9.5 with 265/35/18 Dunlop DZ102's. (rest of suspension is stock)

I need to adjust the camber based on the tread-wear of my tires, the inside is completely worn out while the middle/outside of the tires has plenty of tread. The alignment is fine as I have had it checked a few times.

I am wondering what parts I need to have the camber adjusted. From other threads I understand the stock camber bolts can be adjusted quite a bit and can likely achieve the camber most people need. If that is true, where can I order front OEM camber bolts? I can only find the rear. The shop I went to previously noted if they try adjust the existing bolts they may break, so I wanted to order new OEM ones.

If bolts are insufficient, what camber plates should I order?

Thanks

 

How much negative camber are you running?

 

I'm really not sure, I don't think the previous shop was able to adjust the camber much, as they were afraid they would break the bolts. I believe it may be close to stock, so -1 ?

Thanks

 

well -1 is pretty much recommended. So buying camber stuff for that would be a waste of money. The rear the is easily adjustable as long as they know what they are doing. And the only way your gonna be able to 0 out the front is with camber plates for the top. But I wouldn't bother, just buy some new tires and call it a day and make sure you rotate them!

 

Or if money is a big concern right now if you flip the tires inside out you may be able to get more time out of them.

 

The Evo X stock front camber adjustment is only one of two settings. Key point is the bolt is a remove, turn and replace. Do not just loosen and turn the bolt in place.

Discussed in the following thread:
Front Camber Issue

 

inside is toe not camber. You wouldn't have enough negative camber from swift springs and stock suspension to really show any camber wear.

Camber has little effect on tread wear compared to toe and air pressure.

Go to a different alignment place.

 

-1* camber is not wearing the inside of your tires. As razor stated, it is likely a toe issue. Find a new alignment shop. Camber doesn't really present a tire wear "issue" until you start running a lot, like -3* or more.
