You've got some more researching to do before posting a comment like that. If serious enough most alignments problems will cause excessive tire wear, that includes Tow in/out, positive and negative camber, and even caster. But, what do i know? ;)

yea, I understand what he was saying, he didn't get the message across very well tho. Most people when they lower they're car, fail to get an alignment (or like me, crash the car into a curb, and totally ---- up the car, then pay some drunk dude 500 bucks to fix it, then not get an alignment) so now you've got a lowered car, thats got some bad camber, is toe'd in or out a degree or two. So you get excelerated wear on the tire, and since you got some negative camber, it just chews through it like crazy. So must ricers out there thend to believe that the reason why their tires are only lasting 10 000 miles is solely on camber.

I Got new upper ball joints on my car and have about 1 degree of negative camber, and since it's kinda a rip off to pay 70 bucks to get your car aligned, and all they are adjusting is the toe, I made my own alignment machine. I do my own alignments.
