Front tire wear
I realize the 4 wheel drive eats tires faster. My fronts go really fast on outside tread. Does riding the car in a raised position change the camber?

Looking for 2 fronts. Leaning toward Michelin but still not sure.
Drive like a sport then pay like a sport but 3-4k for fronts seem wrong.
