Rear tire feathering after spring install?
Well after i installed my rear hotchkis springs, i noticed the wheels go in at an angle. I thought an alignment would cure it, but no such luck. I'm not sure if I installed the springs upside down in the rear, would that be a possible cause?
If its not, is this something firestone (my alignment place) could fix? Or do i have to make a trip to the dealership. I'm assuming it won't be under warranty since its the spring install that caused it to go out of whack.

please do a search as this topic has been discussed to death. however to point you in the right direction. first off, what you described is not feathering. its just aggressive camber which will be followed by premature inner tire wear. if you've already don't an alignment, then what you need to do is purchase and install a camber kit. you should be fine with just a rear camber arm kit, I recommend the SPC version. after you get that installed then you should be able to get an alignment to correct your problem.
