I saw this when I was in Tampa. I drove back and changed them Wednesday, about an hour before I headed to the track. Now there are brand new Invos on the car. I'm curiuos to know how long these will last.

go to 5-star alignment in aventura. They did mine...had no further problems. I had it aligned all over...including the Mercedes dealer...to no avail. Take it there before you do that camber kit.

I would say that is pretty good wear. If the outside had tons of tread I woud say yea, but the entire tire looks pretty worn. Nothing is going to wear perfectly even with these size tires and our stances. That looks decent. I have seen chords on the inside while the middle to outside still reads 8/32. I think your car is sitting pretty good!

My car is pretty low and the rear tires are wearing amazingly even. The fronts, not so much since it has a decent amount of negative camber. But even the fronts aren't horrible.
If the outside of your tire is nearly worn, I'd leave it alone.

My car isn't slammed low (about flush with fender in rear) but my tires looked kinda close to that. I think mine were a little more worn in the center though along with the slick and threads coming out on the inside.

If you set the rear tire pressure to 35-37 and front to 38-40 PS I cold the inside tire wear will be drastically reduced. I did this a couple years ago with no adverse affects besides a tiny bit harsher ride, and the tire is still contacting the road all the way across.

I noticed Sport 2 kills tires a lot faster.
