2G Just lowered with tokico hp suspension kit Check my alignment!

Hey guys was just wondering if my alignment will make my tires wear down fast badly like it did on 120K stock struts/springs and way off specs

heres the specs i have on right now

BTW this is 96' FWD eclipse lowerd 1.5inches with tokico hps struts/springs on 215/45/17 (17 inch rims)

FRONT CAMBER
LEFT -= -1.0
RIGHT = -1.1

FRONT TOE
LEFT = 0.01
RIGHT = 0.00



REAR CAMBER
LEFT = -2.5
RIGHT = - 2.5

REAR TOE
LEFT = 0.16
RIGHT = 0.10

You guys think my tires will last? or will it wear down fast? anyone had experience with similar specs?

... or will it wear down fast?

Yes. Add some spacers in the rear and get it aligned.

I've got the same setup on my GS. I was fine with doing the DIY rear camber mod and went and got it aligned.

Shouldn't have any issues with the front, its toe that kills tires not negative camber like most think. I run -1.5 camber on the front (better handleing) with toe set at zero & have done so for the past 3 summers and the tires are wearing completely even. Looks like you will need an alignement kit for the back because of the negative camber/toe combo. They make a couple different styles of alignment kits, some washers and longer proper grade bolts works just as well for the back & can be picked up for cheep.

Just out of curiosity, how did you obtain those numbers? What I mean is how did you get the measurements done?

3/8" of spacers and cut the amount of rear toe-in by 50% when you get it re-aligned.

As to where the numbers came front, probably from getting a professional alignment.
