Suspension lowering tire wear
I lowered my frs 1.6in in the back and just wore through a new set of tires! Will Buddy Club P1-Racing Lower Control Arm Rear FRS/BRZ FT86 help take out the camber in the rear so I don't make this mistake again? If not what's the best way to get the camber out of my rear suspension?

Camber probably isn't eating your tires, toe is.
LCAs can fix that, but you'd need an alignment done (obviously). |

Toe is likely the culprit. The rear will toe in when compressed or permanently lowered.
If you lower past 1", you need an alignment and probably camber correction for the rear. In general it's cheaper than new tires. |
