Ridiculous FRONT camber wear!

Anyone knows a good alignment shop? haha!

Was that westpoint?


And Nino, if you're reading this, now you know why we used your car last night. haha!

 

wow.....

 

 

Weird enough but my rear doesn't actually have issues.

 

My fronts have lasted me about two years now without any wear. The rears were replaced for the same problem. This can be very dangerous!

 

Spending on new tires when you least expect it is suuch a *****! Specially with our sizes. haha!


Horrible camber. Hopefully, i'll find a good shop this week.

 

Tell me about it!!!

damn.. i wonder how much you spend just on tires... lol.. wanna trade your 19's for my 17's...the tires are going to be cheap.. lol

 

Man...how low were you?

That looks like toe problems not just camber, considering how it wore so hard into the corner at an angle.

 

Agreed. I think this thread should be "don't forget to check your alignment"

 

man i did alignments for over 5 years and thats one of the worst tire wear ive seen lol.

 

jeez, that is crazy

 

I've cut my hands on that stuff before. I can't believe people drive with tires like that. Oh, wait. Haulers do it all the time....

 

I blame you.

 

you are on GF210s correct? Did you get it aligned? I have 18000 miles on GF210s and 15000 of those were on Stockers and my stockers wore 95% even if not 100%.. just giving room for error. Either way, that looks like severe toe problems like what 350zephr said. Although on my last car I had T1-Rs, with same -1.8 camber like I have on the Z, but it wore like that.. I found the cause to be low tire pressure. Low tire pressure + soft side wall + negative camber = EXTREME excessive wear on the inner tires.. I'm willing to bet that tire pressure was on the low side.. T1-Rs are too soft. One side had 20 something psi and the other had 30 something, and the 20 side wore out like a *****..

 

I blame cheap *** trucking companies.

 

Now that i've looked at the pictures again, I can almost guarantee that was because of low tire pressure and weak sidewall.. if you look at the sidewall you can see the flexing and folding where it touched the ground and created an extreme rubbing to the ground.

 

I'm actually gonna say that it's not just bad camber wear. I'm sure its a bunch of other factors involved.


Any recommendations for alignments for lowered cars? And how much am I looking at?

And yes, I'm only lowered on GF210s.

 

I dropped my car the first day i got it, aligned it the following week at west covina nissan. My friend got his G35 aligned at performance.. either way, can't go wrong.. alignment is well worth the price. I guess you are keeping your car?

 

I'm not keeping the car.

As much as it breaks my pocket, im not selling it half assed. Hate to lose integrity. :P


Any non-dealers?
