Camber issue
Hey guys! So I’m having a pretty good amount of camber issues on my front two tires. I have 17 inch wheels but same standard size tires that came with the car. Can anyone tell me a good easy fix for this? Any info would be greatly appreciated.

What are your alignment numbers? If you do not have them go get an alignment and report back. Also what suspension changes have you made? |

I would just take it to a "good" alignment shop and see what they say. Actually, for the price of camber bolts, I would get some and throw them in prior to getting the alignment. Camber bolts can be a cheap and easy way to even out your camber, expesially if something is a "bit bent". Do some research on front camber settings, it depends on tyre selection and use really, settings can range from anywhere between -1° to -2.5° for street use. I'm currently: Hankook RS4 Front, -2.5° 0 toe (from adjustable MCA coils) Rear, on stock arms -2.0 0 toe (from 15mm drop) BUT, that is set up for me, could it be better, maybe, my gauge is tyre wear. Opinions may vary

A lot of cars are toed out from the factory. Great for steering response but bad for tire life. Correctable at any alignment shop
