Another rear tire wear question - worn out in the middle

[titan silber]

Thanks for all the replies. I’m going to try the following:

install a set of Hardrace toe and camber arms. I was able to buy them for £320 (about $370) so thought they were worth the likely reduced tire wear



reduce the rear toe setting to the factory minimum or even a bit less and reduce the rear camber to -2 degrees

stick with factory pressures

check the tire wear every 1000 miles and tweak the above as needed.

So have you already tried with renewed rear arms and rose bushes and the rear camber can't be set near -2 degrees? Camber can be even less a bit depending on the front camber so that there is at least 1 degree more negative camber on the rear compared to front.

Yes, after the refresh the minimum rear camber that could be achieved was -2 49' on the left and right. Front cambers are -1 16' and -1 03' with the pins still in place.


My plan is to try to get the front cambers to both about -0 45' and then use the adjustable arms to get to -1.5 on the rears with toe on low side of the allowed tolerance.
