hell of a neg camber on the rear
im still finding my way around my 2wd saph & i loved the look of the slammed rear end but it has a lot negitive camber so is wearing out the tyres, ive checked the springs & the koni suspension for leaks but theres none but they are old, but i do know that the lad that had it before me blooterd it off a curb & changed everything (got receipts)
so whats my opptions?
just change the suspension anyway & see how that goes??

common problem with cossies if you go too low looks good but grip and handling do suffer
You can either buy a decamber kit from Mike R or the cheap option is to space out the top of the rear hub carrier with washers which angles the hub down
BUT the latter could affect the abs sensors???
OR
Bring the back end up

Inner tyre wear is NOT caused by CAMBER.
The R&B shims do NOT adjust the camber.
The problem is the TOE, the cossie uses SEMI trailing arms, so the lower it goes the more toe you get.
The shims from MIKE R adjust the TOE, so it has nowhere near as much, the TOE OUT on the cossie as std is there for stability, and most is taken away with the shims fitted in the UPPER & LOWER hole at the REAR of the hub.
They don't really get twitchy though even with the shims.
I ran 3 1/2 degrees negative on my last sierra, with NO inner tyre wear at all, just normal wear across the tread.
