Alignment ? Do i need front kit on????

[mitsuclipsegsx]

I took my car to the dealership to get my car alighned i have it lowered 2 in, the rear camber kit is installed. The fronts are not in becasue when i put them in every corner i made it would sqeak, maybe it just needed to be alighed with it in, what do you think about that? and here are my #s


left front -1.3 camber 0.02 toe
left rear- -0.9 camber -1.13 toe

btw - is negative not a dash

right front -1.8 camber 0.03 toe
right rear -1.0 camber 0.23 toe

He told me to put the front camber kit and come back what should i do,i just dont want to wear my new 18 tires.

thanks a lot

I don't think you'll see too much wear up front with those numbers, but the left rear is probably going to chew some tire with -1.13* of toe.

Not sure if you resolved this or not, but I agree with what he said. I'm running 2.25 camber up front with no wear problems, but my toe is 0. Toe has a much greater impact on tire wear, since the tire is literally being dragged sideways over the ground. A lot of camber just causes most of the weight to rest on the inside of the tire, but when you corner hard, where most of your tire wear takes place, the tire flattens out pretty well. For serious track driving, you want at least 2 up front, and your rear camber is fine. Try to 0 out all your toe settings if you havent already.
