Tire wear question after drop.....
I recently noticed that my rear tires are wearing greater on the inside than on the outer. Is there any way for toe/camber to be adjusted on the rear? I had my car dropped, and I don't know if that is creating the problem. I also need a new set for the rear. I am currently running Nitto 555 275/30 19. Should I be looking into a different brand now? I have been satisfied with the Nitto's, but would like some feedback on performance of others. Thank you in advance for your feedback.

HAHA!! I love the added negative camber, but i throw my car quite a bit, so I get pretty even wear. Crash bolts will help with about 1 degree (max), but i would only do it if you do not plan to slalom the car.

Also note that toe in (or out) is the single biggest item that wears tires the most, so even if you do not change the camber at least have the toe adjusted properly.
Improper toe can wear out a set of tires before you even notice the there’s a problem 1500 to 3000 miles or less depending on the severity of the condition. While a camber problem can take several thousand miles to notice the wear.
