Aggressive Wheels and Stretched Tires....Welcome
camber doesn't actually cause the tire to wear at an accelerated rate. it just causes uneven wear from the inner and outer sides of the tire (because with negative camber the inner edge of the tire is in contact with the ground more than the outer edge). when the inner side gets worn, just switch the tire to the other side of the car and you're good. toe is what causes accelerated wear. it also depends on what tread ware the tires are. i think i'd get about 30,000-40,000 miles out of my current tires if i was planning on having them for that long...
it depends on how bad they're rubbing. if it's taking chunks out of your tire, yes. if it's just rubbing the writing off your sidewall, no. post up some pics!
For those who are running the stance gr+ coils. How stiff is your guys coil set to for daily driven? How much clicks in the front and the rear? Mines are set to 12 front, 6 rear. Or should I go more?
^^vinnie is not only you. you should check out the "look what i got today" thread in the media side. lol they got like 5 pages ahead lol
I got mine set at full stiff in the rear and half in the front and ride is really good. you just gotta set it to where you like it the most.

My fronts are full stiffness and my rear are at 9clicks but I need to make it more cause it rubs on my setup
Thanks j.. I might go with 12 clicks on the rears and the front probably Max it. 11-12 should be good for the rears? Driving a slammed car with shitty roads sucks but low is a life style. Lol
I say stay away from maxing out ur fronts, reason been is u have the engine and u need some suspension travel up front more than u need in the rear. I try to take care of the engine better than my fenders rubbing even tho I do not rub anymore. Remember the stiffer your suspension is the harder the engine feels the bumps. Maybe im wrong but that is how I see it so if u think different let me know.
Did some digging...more info can be found on this vette here:

i don't think i've ever heard of someone throwing a rod because of hitting a pot hole. i'd rather have stiff suspension up front to keep my oil pan from smashing the ground. i think the worst that could happen is breaking an engine mount, but i highly doubt stiff spring rates could do that on their own. i daily drove my 240 with gr+ pro ssd's (12k/10k) at 3/4 stiff for a year and had no problems. i'm sure the z can easily compensate for 12k/5k at full stiff being that it's 800lbs heavier...
